Father's Day 2013

This Father's Day, we were able to see both of our Dads.  My Daddy was going down to his parents in the morning and would be back in the afternoon, so we went to church with Zach's parents and then out to O'Charley's for brunch with them.  I didn't have my camera, so no pics from that gathering!

Then we took a glorious, wonderful, three (3!) hour nap before heading to Mama Joyce's to celebrate Father's Day with my Daddy.  Mama Joyce, Mama, Daddy, Ross, Zach, Suzanne, Eric (Suzanne's boyfriend), Fiona (Ross's Dog-daugther), and I were all there.  We had barbecue for supper and homemade apple pie for dessert!  Yumm! 

Nellie with the Father's Day card she "made" with help from Mama! 
 She so wasn't sure about me placing the card on her.  I think she thought she was in trouble.
 I made a card like we made with my kids in summer camp.  All the gray shapes were scratch-offs that told things that their Dad's did for them.  Nellie's said "To a Daddy who..."  "pets me, plays with me, feeds me, takes me hunting, and cuddles with me."  Zach cheated by peeling off the scratch-offs! Stinker!
 This was Sunday night.  My sweet niece, Fiona!  She's a West Highland Terrier.
 Playing with her Daddy!

 My Daddy and I!  I love you, Daddy!
I hope everybody else had a fantastic, relaxing day with their Dads!

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...

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...

Ten on Thursday

1. This week on Tuesday Elizabeth an I got to go to Cheddar's! The best part was we didn't have to wait because we went so early! 2. I have been sewing a skirt and the last step was to shir the skirt so it would cinch up and be elastic-y. It sounds all well and good until it didn't work! I realized I needed a bigger needle for my machine, so yet another trip to Jo-Anns was needed. Then I got home and I still couldn't get it to work just right. Ugh, I need some help! 3. Poor Zach had to work or be in class every single night this week, which has sucked, since we haven't gotten to see each other much at all. I missed him so much, but thankfully his schedule is better for next week! 4. This week has been so slow! It goes that way sometimes with 4 day weeks, so I am ready for the weekend. 5. Friday was our friend Ryan's birthday, so I went out to eat with he and Kayleigh since Zach was working. 6. Working out is going good and have lost another 3 lbs, whi...
