snow day

4 day weekend and 3 day work week- yes please! So when i went to bed last night i felt so much like a school child. i was praying and praying that i would wake up to a beautiful winter wonderland. Jus and i even woke up at 2 a.m. to see what was going on and we were greatly disappointed. Then the alarm went off and we jumped out of bed and ran to the window and again, nothing. but the weather man still called for some major snow so skewl was canceled but poor baby jus had to go to work. I went back to bed, thinking that when i awoke, the ground and trees would look like this:

I had a great morning regardless... coffee, weather channel, and the gym. still no snow.

i am about to begin another julie garwood book- which i know is going to be fantastic. yay!

so it's sunny now... my hope for snow is long gone. in heaven i will be able to play in the snow whenever i want... and with Jesus. how sweet!

today was a wonderful day and it still isn't over! i just love saturdays. i am able to be at home and do the things that the week doesn't allow. i.e. sleep in, eat pancakes, toot around, fix things around the house, browse the mall, print pictures, and watch the office. i mean what more could a gal ask for?
my dear husband worked all day on a curio that is from the 1800's (not really but i am pretending it is) he is refinishing and painting it for our dining room. once we finish the dining room we only have the guest room, the laundry room, and the sun porch to finish. i am loooooving the dining room- i wanted a very romantic feel and friends, that is what we are getting!! my fav piece is our ikeaian chandiler--->

tonight we are going to an art show that our church is putting on and my sis has artwork that she submitted! i am supa excited for her and we are all going to support her swollen cheeks- she had wisdom tooth surgery. ouch. and then we are going to eat dessert somewhere yummy!

also, my new obsession and life savior kraft recipes. it is really easy to use and they have healthy, light and yummy dinners. i have already made 2 this past week- didn't have to buy anything extra, used the ingreds that i already had! and jus loved, as prison mike would say, bot! i am going to make a souperchilli for the week that will be supa healthy and we can eat all week, including lunch!

yowziers! i have been m.i.a. for like a week and 1/2. it's been such a busy break! we had a wonderful but really stressful Christmas eve... it's just really hard being married and having family live sooo close. i mean its awesome but at the same time it is hard because everyone wants us to be where they are and then i want to be with my fam and jus wants to be with his fam and its hard... but of course the Lord worked everything out!

For my love's bday, i made a homemade 3 teired cake that took me four hours. it was great and i felt accomplished and jus loved it! so that was supa fun.

we went to ikea to get fun things for our house! it was realllly fun. and we got a table and chairs...finally! a chandelier which is beautiful! and other little tings!

our friends bradandlyndsey came over for new years from out of town! we had a few peeps over and it was supa fun to be with good friends at such an exciting time. i mean come on we are welcoming a whole new year. 2008 is gone and will never be again and 2009 is new and has never been. how neat.

so i am sick. jus was sick and still is and then i got it. i don't understand. i am just pretty much embarressed bc i am a pretty darn healthy person yet i get sick all the time. this year and the past year have been really bad, and i know that i have a deviated septum but i get other kinds of sick all the time too. justin and i are going to try really hard to use nutritional supplements! my fav is source of life. love it! ok friends are here and i need to entertain <3
