Weekly Wrap-Up

Monday we went to Qdoba and then to the new Roger's Galleria to get my ring checked.  It was so gorgeous and sparkley inside!  (Spell check is telling me that sparkley is not a word, but we all know it is!)  I got my ring sent off to be re-dipped and my finger feels so naked with only my wedding band on!

Tuesday was Strengthening Families night.  It was our 8th week, so we only have 2 left!  It really has gone by so quickly.  I love seeing the families benefiting from all the things we have talked about.  I know that it has really helped some (and hopefully all) of them.

Wednesday and Thursday were really non-eventful days.  Nothing out of the ordinary, but still good days all the same.

Friday I went to Chick-fil-a and while waiting on Mama and Suzanne at Kohl's, I meandered into Petsmart.  Mistake!  A huge mistake... because if one wanders into Petsmart, one will hear puppies, then hold the puppies, and want to take one home.   And then one will be sad when their husband replies a firm "No!" to the text of said cute puppy.  I will give a shout out to New Hope Animal Rescue Center though, as they were the ones bringing the puppies.  They had some cute pups and a couple of sweet adult dogs up for adoption!  If you are looking for an animal to adopt, contact them.  If I could, I'd have taken them all! (And Zach would have had me institutionalized! Ha!)

Moving along, we looked around Kohl's but didn't find much, so then I headed home to help Zach pack up.  We spent the night at my parents' house so we he could go hunting in the morning.  While he was hunting,  I ran errands with Mama Joyce and my sister and I went to Memories Christmas Open House.  Then when I got back, Zach and I went out hunting again.  He saw several does that he could have shot, but passed on all of them.  Once we were both sufficiently frozen and wind-burnt, we headed back to my parents'.  I fixed healthy sloppy joes (I loooooove them) for supper and we watched the puppers play.  Thanks to Mama and Daddy for letting their favorite daughter, son-in-law, and grandpup stay! ; )

Sunday, Zach had to work (BOO!), AND my Mama had to work (BOO again!), so I picked up my Mama Joyce and we went to Sunday School and Church.  When I picked Mama Joyce up, I dropped Nellie off, and she was a naughty girl.  Mama Joyce has a double oven, and the lower one is practically on the floor.  Mama Joyce had a baking pan fully of chicken and sauce in the oven, ready for me to pre-set it when I came in.  Ya'll know where this is going, I assume?  I hear licking, slurping sounds, and a holler from Mama Joyce, and run in to find Nellie quickly licking all the sauce off of the raw chicken.  Gag!  She only got to one piece, so, yes, we went ahead and cooked it.  We figured the heat would kill all the germs, and naturally, you can guess which piece I ate at lunch.  Yes, I love that darn dog... maybe a little too much.  And lest ya'll fear she got off scott-free, I spanked her bottom big-time!  There's no denying that it was pretty funny though! : )

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

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

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
