Hey it's Thursday!

I was checking our blog and suddenly realized, "It's Thursday! So it's time for Ten on Thursday!" I guess it's going to take some getting used to because I had almost forgotten it!

1.) Zach found out that he did not get into the electrical apprenticeship and we were both disappointed! We also guess that this just wasn't what God has planned for him now and he is actively seeking what the plan is! He is also looking for a job that is closer to home, so please pray he finds one soon!

2.) My second week of classes was awesome! Haha, mostly because I only had two days of class because of labor day! Yay!

3.) Mama and Daddy are going to Cincinnati, Ohio this weekend for Mama to attend a physical therapy seminar. When we were little, we might have been going too! Now we're all having to do the grown up thing instead, which is way less fun! Hope they have a good time though!

4.) Our water here in Southern Indiana and Kentucky is tasting like DIRT these days because it has been SO dry and the river has gotten so low. We are supposed to get some rain this weekend and I say, "Let it pour and let the river rise!" I am so tired of the water tasting nasty!

5.) Zach and I are trying to walk for 30 minutes in the evening. I know it's not a lot, but it's better than what we've been able to do in a while, and he thinks my power walk is pretty entertaining!

6.) Our refrigerator may be on it's last leg. (Which is understandable since I am positive is older than me. Possibly Zach and I's ages put together.) So, well, if that goes out, we're just going to add that to the pile that is already on top of us! Let's hope it can hang in there for a little while longer.

7.) It's getting cooler outside all the time, and while I love summer, I love looking forward to getting out my winter scarfs, hats, and coats! For some reason, I really like cold weather!

8.) I am searching diligently for a good kuchen recipe, but all of the ones I find aren't quite right. Anybody know a good one?

9.) Zach is really loving his XBOX 360 these days. He seems to love it even more since he bought the online gaming card so that now he can play Call of Duty with all the other nerds out there!

10.) This weekend we are going to Zach's mom's family reunion. They are having it in New Harmony, IN, which I've never been to, so that will be an adventure all in itself. We're not sure all that's planned, but hopefully we'll have some fun!

I hope everybody's having a good September so far!

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
