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!

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...

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!

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...
