Weekly Wrap-Up October 28- November 3

Monday we went to our usual, Qdoba, for supper and then went to Lowe's, Aldi, and Jo-Ann's.  I got to use my super saver card at Jo-Ann's and got this $20 basket for $4.20!  Hence the happy face!
 Tuesday was Strengthening Families, so that was my entire day.  I did manage to squeeze in a workout when I got home!  That was a big thing after working 13 hours!

Wednesday, Nellie and I went to Mama and Daddy's to help her finish my outfit and to have supper.  See how my Mama slaved over my dress?
Beautiful!

I really felt like the fairest of them all! : )
On Halloween, Nellie was standing on the sock drawer and staring in the mirror.  I just found it funny!
Friday night I babysat some kiddos that I've babysat a lot before.  They've gotten so big and we had lots of fun!  We also got to enjoy passing out candy at their house since it was postponed to Friday.
 Saturday, Zach got up at 3:00 a.m. to go duck hunting with his cousins.  I feel it's almost unnecessary to say I did not get up then! I didn't get home until after midnight, and I needed my sleep for the next day!

I had one of my Praxis II tests for my teaching license for Kentucky on Saturday.  It had 4 subsections over reading, math, social studies, and science.  It was a 4 hour test, and I am sooooooo happy to say I passed... and with flying colors I might add! (Which I'm not going to lie, I did not expect on a couple of the sections, because they were really hard!)

When I got home, Zach had already left for hunting, so I worked on lesson plans and being Nellie's personal slave.  She enjoys me being her bed!



 Today (11-3-13)  Zach got up early to go duck hunting again (by himself this time) and got his first mallard duck!  He was a happy man!! 

Check out all this adorableness!  Too bad Nellie was making that ridiculous face!

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
