Ten on Thursday

1. We have had a very busy week! I have not had a "do nothing" day so far!

2. Nellie has been difficult lately! I told Mama today that if dogs have terrible twos, she isdefinitely in them! Hopefully things get better soon. The worst is her whininess in the mornings and her not always listening! Sounds like a puppy, right?!

3. Last Saturday Suzanne and I went shopping for clothes for me to wear when I teach. We got GREAT deals at New York and Company! I got 3 dresses, 2 skirts, and 1 top. Suzanne also got a dress. It was a very successful shopping trip!

4. On Sunday, Zach accidentally left his phone at Mama Joyce's, so we drove back to the north side of Henderson after just leaving it! Haha, isn't that just how it goes sometimes?

5. Monday was a day full of cleaning and washing clothes! The cycle never ends! Suzanne and I also made a special trip to Target to get the 3rd season of The Office since it was on sale!

6. On Tuesday, Mama, Mama Joyce, Suzanne, and I went to visit Aunt Lynn and Uncle Reid at Vanderbilt in Nashville. My uncle just finished chemo last week for AML, a form of leukemia. We also took my Aunt Lynn out to lunch, because it was her Birthday! We pray that the God gives the doctors and nurses treating Uncle Reid wisdom in all they do. His nurse seemed especially nice, so I feel he is in good hands.

7. I finally got to sub for my teacher that I student taught with yesterday. I was so ready to see the kids and they were ready for me too! One of my girls said , "When Mrs. Daub said you were coming today, my eyes nearly popped out of my head... And I screamed too!" hehe, see why I love them?

8. After school on Wednesday I was running around from store to store trying to get ready for Zach's Birthday dinner. After I finally get through all the chaos, we just decided it would be easier to go out to eat so that his parents, sister, brother-in-law, and niece could come. (we would have had it at our house, but despite all my cleaning efforts, there is still a lot of junk to put away!)
Anywho, we ate at Shyler's and Zach received more parts for the gun he is building. I also got him the barrel to the gun, but it is not here yet. (of course.) I don't think any present I have ever ordered him has gotten here in time for the occasion! He still had a very Happy Birthday though, and I sure am glad we got to spend it together!

9. Today I got the oil changed in my car, go me! Yes, this is for you, Mama! I also mowed at Mama Joyce's.

10. Zach was too full last night to eat the birthday pie I got for him, so we baked it tonight and Ryan and Kayleigh helped us eat it... And it as Sooo yummy! It was a Dutch apple pie for any of you who were wondering! (bought, I might add. I didn't have time to make one!)

Well, that's all for now, it's nighty night time!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

What I'm Thankful For...

Hey y'all. It's just Nathana in this post. I figured since I've been alive 20 years, that equals 20 Thanksgivings, so I'm gonna have the 20 things I'm most Thankful for. Here goes nothing! : ) 1. The first thing of course I am thankful for is my salvation through Jesus Christ! Without him I have no hope to be anything! 2. My mom and dad, and the home they raised me in. I could not imagine any parents better than mine, and I'm proud to be their daughter. I'm also thankful they didn't give me away to a farm when I was difficult! 3. My brother and sister. No one else knows all of the trouble we've been in and fun we've had over the years and even though we don't always see eye to eye, I wouldn't trade them for any other siblings. 4. Zachary Scheller. God has blessed me with an even better future husband than I could have ever asked for. My love and respect for him grows each day, and I will be so thankful this June when I can ca...

No-spend February

I have always been a "saver" of money, practically since I started receiving it for birthdays and especially since earning it.  I nearly cried when I paid $211 dollars cash for my iPod nano when I was 16. True fact!  So a long time ago I heard of a "Dave Ramsey" type idea of a no-spend month where in your household you pay your bills and buy groceries, and no extras for one month.  Then see how much you save.  Before the new year Zach and I were thinking about plans for this next year and things we're planning on saving for, so this idea appealed to the both of us!  Next came the decision of what month to pick for our month.  We knew December was out, for obvious reasons and we felt we needed more time to prepare than January, so February it was... also, who else would admit we're smart for doing this during the shortest month of the year? ; )  Yes, we thought of that as well. We did decide our own guidelines that fit our family. 1. Pay our bills....
