Ten on Thursday

1. I spent a lot of time throughout the week making and getting things for Kayleigh's baby shower on the 14th.

2. I also covered for a 1st grade class while the teachers did DIBELS. It was a fun time had by all! They make you feel like a celebrity when they don't see you all day and then suddenly see you! Gotta love 'em!

3. I have been vigilant with my exercise for a couple weeks and have been counting calories and have lost 2 lbs since the beginning of January, which is 8 lbs overall! Yay!

4. I caught a cleaning "bug" and was a whirlwind during the week! Too bad it doesn't hit me too often! Ha!

5. Zach's promise of a ceiling fan and light for Valentine's day last year came true last weekend! We spent a fairly frustrating day putting it in! We were both about ready to scream, and thank goodness it worked or I don't what we would have done!

6. Zach's classes started and he is taking 12 hours! Pray that the semester goes well for the both of us!

7. The weather was calling for snow on Thursday and I definitely shrugged it off thinking we wouldn't get it because I really wanted the 16th off. We were scheduled for it off, but it would have had to be a make-up day. Well, it did snow, and pretty good! It had terrible timing, though. It was the worst during the commute home and after and hour (double my normal time) of sliding around and not being able to brake I was home! I was really worried they would call school off, but they just delayed it 2 hours! Woo hoo! The best of both worlds!

8. On Friday, Mama, Mama Joyce, Suzanne, and I went to Cheddar's to eat. We had to wait almost an hour and it was FREEZING in their foyer, but once we did get to eat, the food was really yummy. Hopefully Zach and I will get to go soon!

9. My 2nd grade kids were really goofy on Thursday. We play a review game where they use their vocabulary words in sentences properly. They kept using me in the sentences and I have to say they were a tad funny.
Ex: I imagine a briad (bird) on Mrs. Shceller's (Scheller) head.
Mrs. Sheller (Scheller) balance (so it was used incorrectly) on a jaguar and fell off.

One of their words was "wider" and I did threaten them that if in any way they used me in that sentence, I would be mad! Haha, I know they were considering it though!

10. Kayleigh's baby shower was a big hit. I was so happy she had a good time! Everyone loved the sherbet punch, fruit dip, and cupcakes I had made, which made me so happy!

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
