Let's Catch Up

Day 15 of Blogtember:  A life lately post.  This couldn't have come at a better time, since I need to get caught up on our everyday happenings.  We have been having busy weekends!  The weekend of the 14th, Zach went duck hunting in the morning, we worked on the bathroom yet again, and then went deer hunting that evening.  On Sunday, we went to church and lunch with his parents' for his Mom's birthday.  We ate at Bandana's BBQ for the first time and it was pretty good.  That evening we all met together at Olive Garden to celebrate.
This past weekend I went to my cousin's bridal shower and then to Zach's family reunion the rest of the day.  It was so, so good to get home that night and crash in our bed.  It was a long day!
I think we are booked with something every weekend until November.  I love squeezing every bit of fun into our weekends, but at the same time, I would love to have a weekend where it is just Zach and I could do nothing!  In a perfect world, right?

The weeks at school have been going by super fast.  I started the Strengthening Families program at my school last week.  We meet on for 2 hours in the evening once a week and it went so well last week.  We feed the families supper and work on skills to make their family stronger.  One week down, with nine to go, but I am betting I will miss it when it's over.  The day of the program though is so long, I am at school around 13 hours! 

Zach has gotten back in to the swing of things in his school and I think his semester is off to a great start!  This time next year he will be getting ready to graduate!  So surreal, but we are so ready.  I couldn't be prouder of him! 

I have been a terrible housekeeper lately.  Our kitchen table is covered in stuff, clean clothes are piled in our room waiting to be put away, and all the crap from remodeling the bathroom has displaced things all over the house.  I intend to work on it a little each day, but I get overwhelmed!  Let's hope I get the courage to get underway with that soon! 

Hunting with my sweetie!

Daddy let her lick out his empty Blizzard cup!  Her tongue was able to reach the bottom!


At my cousin's shower! Did I mention I got glasses?  I did!  The second week of school!  I can't believe I left that out!

At the family reunion!  We're a mess!

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...
