Weekend recap

We had a busy, busy weekend! When I got home from work Friday, Zach and I went to Chick-fil-a for supper, and then to Kohl's and the mall. We had I get him new swim trunks for our upcoming vacation and I also found the awesome shelf/mirror/holder ever. It was originally $40, on clearance for $7.99, AND I had my 30% off, so it was $5! The black doesn't match our kitchen, and since I can't resist a fun painting project, I'm itching to get it redecorated and up! But, what color to paint it?

On Saturday, I went to mow at my Mama Joyce's, but her lawn mower ( that had just gotten out of the shop) was STILL messing up, so I only got 2 laps around the field finished! Argh! So I went ahead and swam the afternoon away and got burnt! My own stupid fault since I didn't do a very good job with sunscreen. My belly and eyelids hurt for days!  That night when Zach got off work, we ate ate at Qdoba and met Suzanne and her boyfriend at Kohl's to help him pick out a suit, and I also got a shelf/holder wall thing that also has a cork board! (It Matches what I bought Kn Friday, and I am Painting it too!) It was originally $50, on clearance for $10, an then 30% off with my coupon! Loooove great deals like that!

Sunday we went to Sunday school and church and to Mama Joyce's for lunch. After that I met up with Elizabeth at the mall before she had to leave on Monday! We had yummy cupcakes from a local cupcakery, the Pace Trè! So yummy! Lucky for me, Elizabeth will be back in 2 weeks, so I'll get to see her more before she heads back to school!  

See? I told you it was a busy weekend! 

All my scores from shopping! My husband is the best for taking me! : )

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...

Valentine's Weekend

Zach and I seemed to stretch out Valentine's day for the whole weekend! On Friday night we had pizza ordered in (pineapple and mushroom, my FAVORITE, Thanks honey!) Then on Saturday, Zach took me to downtown Henderson to Memories, a little antique shop, and bought me a McGuffey reader to add to my collection! After that, we went to Bed, Bath, and Beyond in Evansville and Zach bought me a back massage machine that goes in the chair! It does shiatsu massage and feel wonderful! He jokes that now he won't ever have to give me massages anymore, but that's not true! Then we went back to his house, and he opened his present from me, a balance thing that measures reloading stuff for guns! As you can guess, I don't exactly know what it is, I just said, "Pick something out unless you want some new polos." Motivates him every time! Today after church and lunch at Mama Joyce's we rushed to the west side of Evansville and went to the movies! We saw "When ...

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...
