We've been BUSY!




This week JR took off to get "stuff" done around the house. We finally got his office painted and and started to be organized. We are just waiting for some guitar hangers. So there it is. We are almost done decorating the house. I painted the kitchen too. I am still doing touch ups on the kitchen. Next, I want to get rid of the wood boarders in the den and kitchen and paint them white. I think the wood is very 80's.

Naps

It's Sunday and most people on Sundays take naps after church. I am not one of those people. I would rather get "stuff" done and spend time with the family but on this day I took a nap. I regret taking that nap! I slept for 3 hours! Now I CANT sleep!!! It is 12:30am and I wish I had gotten my list done rather than sinking down into my nice comfortable bed with the shades shut and HGTV on and falling asleep. I was so sleepy after having a girls night out and being gone all day Saturday to the ball field. I guess in my old age I just cant be up late anymore :) I never thought at 29 I would be saying I am old but good Lord,I fall asleep watching the morning shows! I take a nap from taking a nap. What has gotten into me? It is like Alabama has drained me from who I use to be. I miss Abilene. I had so much energy. I was working out all the time,my house was clean,my lawn was cut at all times. I move here and all I can do is lay around and get fat. I have to snap out of it! No more naps for me!!

Last Saturday I had to opportunity to go to a "Tea at Two" with Ali and the rest of the girls in my family. Ever year the church puts this on the Sunday before Mother's Day. The little girls dress up with a cute hat and some with gloves and we set and eat little sandwiches and lots of desserts. Oh and there was tea :) I am not a big tea drinker but we were able to try different flavors and I really enjoyed it. Next year I will be in charge of the little girls performing a fashion show during the tea. So if anyone has any cool idea PLEASE let me know!

The thing I find funny about the whole tea is that it IS the day before Mothers Day. Why would anyone do that?? It take weeks to prepare two days to set up and 1 hour to eat. So basically we are too exhausted to even enjoy the thing. Plus we know after we have to clean and pack up everything! Next year I think we should have the GUYS plan the event and do all the work so we can actually enjoy the weekend:) I know that will never happen but a woman can dream, cant she??

Silly Dogs




The kids thought it would be cute to try put the goggles on the dogs. The only one that likes to swim is Ace, though. We did put Zoey and Dililah in the pool yesterday but it didn't last long :) Dililah thought she was Jesus and started walking on the water to get out. It was hilarious. Zoey went straight for the stairs and jumped out. Ace went for the deep in to be able to stay in longer. Dogs are so funny!

A funny video for us moms

2 Things...


These are the two things that make my day! I can never have too many chips and salsa with a COLD Margarita. Some of my favorite memories of Offutt Afb was walking to Lil' Burro with my friend Jenn to eat and drink. It was so relaxing. Salsa is about the only way you can get me to eat onions, garlic, peppers etc. If you know me you know I am not one to eat vegetables, but put salsa in front of me and I will eat some veggies! I love a good margarita to relax me and I am one happy lady :)
