Every Day posting in May (a day late) May 1st

I saw this idea on Thursday over @ Hello, Happiness!  She is blogging each day in May and there are prompts/ideas to write about!  Should be fun and a good way to keep me motivated, right?  
The first prompt is to tell about yourself in 250 words or less.


I am Nathana. I was raised in Kentucky and lived with my Mama, Daddy, brother, and sister. Life was always fun growing up as my grandparents lived less than 1/4 mile down the road. I play the piano and french horn and was on swim team in high school. I definitely wasn't the best swimmer, but I absolutely loved it. I attended college at USI and lived on campus. In August 2007, I sat next to a boy at our dorm hall meeting that is now my husband. I love God and believe that he leads us to places or brings us to trials for our betterment and deeper trust and love of him. I've been through a lot of that. I can't say I loved the actual college classes, but I love that USI is where I met Zach. So often I think where I would be had I not attended USI and met Zach. He makes every day better and I love him more than he can imagine. We are living in Evansville and have a beagle daughter (Nellie) whom we love dearly. She is my heart! We can't wait to hopefully move back to Kentucky someday. I have always dreamt of being a mama. Meeting, dating, and marrying Zach were steps to making that dream a reality and I know that he is going to be the best Daddy someday! I just hope I am just as good of a Mama!

 BAM! 244 words!  Thank you, thank you!  I tried hard on that one!
Oh boy!  My 17th birthday.  I don't think I look bad, it's just upsetting that it has been 7 years since then!
 See, playing the french horn!
 Vacation in Florida.  Couldn't tell you what year, but I have a feeling it was circa 2006.

 My Senior Prom- At my high school it was a tradition (if you chose to) to waltz with your parent!  So of course Daddy and I did!
 High School graduation party!  May 18, 2007
Wow, looking back down pictures is way too fun!  Now I'm probably going to be in that La-La land for the next couple hours!  Hope ya'll enjoyed the trip down memory lane!

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
