Let's Play Catch up!

Starting with...
1. Labor day September 5th. We got to sleep in and then went out and about looking for a new bed/ mattress set! We found a great deal at Baumberger's and are still waiting for them to come in. : ( I know it's not been that long, but I just can't wait to get them and sleep on them!

2. That afternoon we went to Zach's parents to cook out. It was freezing, so I got a cold/sinus infection! Boo, but we still had fun!

3. This 4 day work week seemed every bit as long as a 5 day one!

4. I am developing a highly undesirable raccoon tan on my face from bus duty. I told my principal I needed compensation! Haha

5. Zach has night classes a couple of nights, so Nellie and I usually go on a walk and I do my elliptical. Then Nellie makes me super paranoid by walking around growling and cowering like she's scared. I thought she'd be my little fearless protector, but we're thinking not!

6. We picked out our bed and I actually went out and bought it on Friday. I was by myself in Zach's Explorer, so thank goodness that the ladies helped me pack the huge thing in. I was able to carry the rails in when I got home by myself, but the main part weighed over 100 lbs, so he had to help me with that. We put the headboard together tonight! I'll get pictures up as soon as we get our mattress in!

7. Zach worked Saturday, so Nellie and I went to Mama and Daddy's. Nellie stayed with her Grandpa while Mama and I went to my cousin,
Neil's, wedding shower. I think Nellie had lots of fun with Grandpa!

8. Today was the first Sunday that Zach has had Sunday off (except his surgery) since June. We got to go to church together and I can barely explain how happy I was to be in church with him worshipping together! Hopefully it won't be so long before his next Sunday off again!

9. Zach is settling in to his semester of school and I am falling into my routine at school. Pray that both continue to go well for us. I know I've said it before, but I am so proud of Zach going to school, and I hope he learns so much this semester!

10. I get my first paycheck this Friday! It's been a long while since my last summer camp check, so we are super excited and super ready for my "big" aide pay! God is so good! I am loving what I am doing and can not imagine doing anything else!

I hope everyone has a great week!

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying. "Ohhh, paper!  I love that!"  Make-up set from us!  He looooved the paper!  Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us!  He lik

Ten on Thursday

1. Zach is on Spring Break this week! Even if it is just from his one class, we still enjoyed it! I actually got to have him with me all last night! 2. I am almost done with my first week in third grade. So far, so good! The kids seem to really like me and I'm becoming rather fond of them as well! 3. I was working out last night and accidentally kicked Nellie in the side of her head. She is okay, but Zach may still be dying of laughter! I felt awful and was trying to pick her up as she was trying to scurry away from me. She must have thought I did it intentionally! Poor baby! She got lots of hugs and kisses after that though! 4. We have kept our sink free of dirty dishes for over a week now! This may not sound like such a feat, but trust me, when you don't have a dishwasher, it is! 5. Tomorrow is the "Spring Fling" carnival at my school. I am going to help set it up after school, which should be fun! 6. Warrick County School Corporation announced this past week that t
