What I did this weekend...

May not seem like much, but I loved it all the same.  We went to see Catching Fire Saturday morning and I am still soaking up all its awesomeness.  I honestly not expecting the sheer delight I experienced while watching it.  They very nearly matched it to the book to a tee. (almost!)  That make me so, so happy.  I am a nerd, and it's okay.  I also made everyone in the theater laugh out loud when I screamed during a certain monkey scene.  Haha!  I also jumped and according to Zach, dug my claws nails into his arm.  There were so many intense, riveting scenes.  I just loved it!!!  Then the rest of the day I napped (I know this is sad!) and Zach went hunting.  We ordered pizza and watched Here Comes the Boom!  It is soo good, too!

Sunday was an interesting day.  We were leaving early for me to play hand bells at church.  I was also going to be super sweet and pick-up doughnuts for everybody from Donut Bank.  Enter the sucky part.  As I am starting to turn, Zach shouts "You are about the hit.... crash...the curb."  I flattened my tire and my poor husband was rolling around the freezing cold ground and trying to get the jack under my car.  Fairly soon we decided to just call AAA because it would be so much easier!  My mom (Poor thing) ran over to Evansville to get me (and the donuts) so we could get handbells while Zach waited with the car.  They got it changed out and he went ahead to Wal-Mart and got a new tire and oil change... and still made it back for the "big church" service.  (We can go ahead and laugh that I still call the service that!)   We ate lunch at Mama Joyce's and came home to rest.  Then we went to Zach's parents' to decorate their Christmas tree and have supper.  Zach's sister and her family were there too, so we got to see our niece and nephews!

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
