Let's Catch Up

Day 15 of Blogtember:  A life lately post.  This couldn't have come at a better time, since I need to get caught up on our everyday happenings.  We have been having busy weekends!  The weekend of the 14th, Zach went duck hunting in the morning, we worked on the bathroom yet again, and then went deer hunting that evening.  On Sunday, we went to church and lunch with his parents' for his Mom's birthday.  We ate at Bandana's BBQ for the first time and it was pretty good.  That evening we all met together at Olive Garden to celebrate.
This past weekend I went to my cousin's bridal shower and then to Zach's family reunion the rest of the day.  It was so, so good to get home that night and crash in our bed.  It was a long day!
I think we are booked with something every weekend until November.  I love squeezing every bit of fun into our weekends, but at the same time, I would love to have a weekend where it is just Zach and I could do nothing!  In a perfect world, right?

The weeks at school have been going by super fast.  I started the Strengthening Families program at my school last week.  We meet on for 2 hours in the evening once a week and it went so well last week.  We feed the families supper and work on skills to make their family stronger.  One week down, with nine to go, but I am betting I will miss it when it's over.  The day of the program though is so long, I am at school around 13 hours! 

Zach has gotten back in to the swing of things in his school and I think his semester is off to a great start!  This time next year he will be getting ready to graduate!  So surreal, but we are so ready.  I couldn't be prouder of him! 

I have been a terrible housekeeper lately.  Our kitchen table is covered in stuff, clean clothes are piled in our room waiting to be put away, and all the crap from remodeling the bathroom has displaced things all over the house.  I intend to work on it a little each day, but I get overwhelmed!  Let's hope I get the courage to get underway with that soon! 

Hunting with my sweetie!

Daddy let her lick out his empty Blizzard cup!  Her tongue was able to reach the bottom!


At my cousin's shower! Did I mention I got glasses?  I did!  The second week of school!  I can't believe I left that out!

At the family reunion!  We're a mess!

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
