Ten on Thursday

1. Last Friday we got to take the kids to the YMCA to swim. They had a blast and enjoyed watching all of us teachers go off the diving board!

2. On Saturday, I went to Mama Joyce's while Zach worked, and Elizabeth came over to swim! We had so much fun and got a little more tan!

3. I also mowed Saturday so it won't look so bad after we get back from vacation!

4. I got to meet my Mom and Dad's chickens (or should I say Suzanne's?) last week. They are very tame and a couple of them let me hold them.

5. Suzanne also got her first job last week. She is working a kennel helping take care of all the dogs! Welcome to the working force, Sister!

6. Saturday night we (Mama, Suzanne, and I) practiced hand bells at church with the other members of the hand bell choir for 2.5 hours. We played Sunday morning for the 4th of July and it went really well. I will try to post the videos my dad took on here later.

7. After Zach got of work on Sunday we went to his Granny and Papaw's to eat. His Aunt made Sopapilla (spelling?) and it was delicious!! I must remember to get that recipe. They also made two types of home made ice cream, but I only had room left to try the peach! It was pretty good!

8. We enjoyed a lazy day off on Monday and went to Zach's sister's house to eat that night and to set off fireworks. Aubrie wore earmuffs like you wear when you mow or shoot a gun, which I think was cute and quite hilarious!

9. At Summer camp this week we took the kids to "Bouncing of the Walls." It was a place with several inflatables that the kids could play on. I had a blast too, until I twisted wrong on one of the inflatables and heard my back go "crrrrrr-aaa-cck." If felt bad for a couple days, but it feeling some better today! So, the lesson of that is to learn when you are too old to play with the youngens!

10. Last night Zach and I went out to eat with Ryan and Kayleigh to Cheeseburger in Paradise. They were making fun of me because I always get the same burger and was reluctant to try a new kind. I'm proud to say (even if it is lame) that I did try the mushroom and swiss burger and it was pretty good! See, old dogs can learn new tricks! (Or at least try something different every once in a while!)

Hope ya'lls week has been great!

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
