rain.
Tonight I'm meeting up with about 12 girls for dinner at Surin!!! I just love that place and haven't been in such a long time. I am counting down the hours until I can leave. However, I have a few stops to make on my way there.
After dinner depending on the time Thomas and I may go bowling with Nicole and AJ (Happy Birthday you old man...he is a B-I-G 24).......Just depends on everything. Then after bowling we will need to do Day 5 of P90X (Legs & Back and AB X) and address all 150 Christmas Cards.
Saturday I am thinking about running in the 5K but, I think it will be cold and raining so I'm just going to "pretend" I signed up and run at home on my treadmill. Then I have to do something around town (it's the last weekend before Christmas), mail my Christmas Cards, get stamps (I need to start a list), wrap my gift for my work party, workout Day 6 of P90X and ofcourse attend my work Christmas party where I will have to give a speech.....but they will have an open bar!!!!
Sunday will be around the house - wash clothes, finish up all my sewing/craft projects and picking up around the house. And ofcourse Day 7 of P90X.
Next week I'm going to "try" to work 3 10's so I only have to work 2 hours on Christmas Eve. And Christmas Eve is PAYDAY for me!!!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

what up my peeps.
T and I had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Sunday afternoon was with my family at my grandmothers house. We stayed to catch up with Chris and Jana and then went over to Mom's house to pick up a few things she got us. Next was Wednesday night with the Brandon Family for Thanksgiving. We had a wonderful time and play a game with Scott, Katie, Freda, and Robert until midnight. Anna Kate told us we needed to use our inside voice because she was trying to go to sleep in Nana's room. We got back to Huntsville on Thanksgiving Day around 3:00ish and was off to get our Christmas Tree at Wal-Mart but, our South end Wal-Mart didn't have any. I was so upset because we were going to be so busy that weekend that we weren't going to have time but, we got one Sunday night. Below is a picture from "The Hair Shop" the kids did at Thanksgiving.
I recently was asked to be apart of a bunco group in Huntsville and we had our 1st meeting a couple of weeks ago. I met 11 new people that night and had a wonderful time!!! Our 1st "real" game is next month and I can't wait!!! I also had another girls night this past Friday with my good friends Shelana, Dana, Tab, and Brandi. It's crazy how we just talk to night away. We always find so much to talk about and then the next time we look at our watch it's 11:30 at night. Saturday was a fun day with The Akins (without the cat lady drama). T got up to watch Preston play at 10:00am and I went to pick up a few Christmas gifts then met them for lunch. Katie and I went to the Marketplace in Hampton cove for some shopping and then back to Preston's game. After we finished with that we went to "Target" (the kids with Nana and Poppy) and Katie and I went to try to adopt this cat from New Leash on Life. Well, they didn't like the fact that Katie lived an 1 1/2 away and that they couldn't do a home visit. And the lady who keeps the cat is this old lady who had never had kids or married so you can image. I'm not going to get into this because it will only make mad again. So, they didn't get the cat (because you know Katie can raise 4 kids but, she just doesn't know how to raise a cat to live it's full life). WHATEVER. We also went to see the lights which was wonderful!!! Stopping on our way home for dinner. Saturday was a long day we were so tried. Sunday we were lazy!!!

updates
This past Monday was my grandmothers birthday. She is such a sweet person and so 1940's can of lady. I just love her so much and wish I could visit with her more. No words can explain the type of person she is.......
Today - Wednesday I have a spa day that Thomas planned for me. I will be leaving work at 3:00!!! It can't come fast enough. I went and ran this running trail Tuesday afternoon with a co-worker who is a big runner (She says she hasn't ran in over a year - REALLY because you passed me....). But, I finished the 3 miles even if I walk the last mile and a half. But, I am hurting today from that run!
This weekend we are working around the house. It's crazy - I have been trying to clean out closets and what is funny my way of cleaning is not like everyone else. I like to take EVERYTHING out and then clean and put back....so we have clothes EVERY WHERE. I have got to finish this this weekend because we will be on the move the next 7 weeks and won't have time.
If anyone is in town Saturday night we are going to Sports Page to listen to Uglistick!!! Hope to see some peeps!

recap.
Me and Hayley front row!! The only way!!! Below is me and Kristen leaving at 2AM for some reason we never thought the place was closed until the lights would come on and they would kick us out!!!!
Fun Times...Love my girls!!When I got to downtown, the road I always take was closed so I did get lost (Hello! How long have I been going downtown and living in Huntsville??) but, that is another issue for another day..... So I finally got to them and pick them up and headed back home. By the time we got home is was around 2:30AM and we had to get up REALLY early the next day!!!
Saturday - Was moving day for Kristen and Josh. So we headed to Arab @ 8AM that morning. It was a long day and we are stilling hurting from all the moving. But, It was a fun day. Us girls (Melissa, Kristen, and me) gossip the hole time we were moving (it's called multi-tasking - Josh!). When I said we would help move I thought the meaning of "move" was load the truck and unload the truck.....However Kristen defines the word "move" as packing the house, load the truck, unload the truck, and put away!!! I will remember that when they ask us to help next time! BTW - We will be at the beach that weekend (not sure what weekend it will be but, I'm sure we will be out of town....lol). We didn't get home until 10:45pm that night but, we were active and not being lazy so that was good!
Sunday - We got up around 9AM and went to the Spring Market. I love crafts and getting new ideas. I plan to go again next year!! We had some lunch then headed back home to wash clothes and get ready for the week.
This week has been busy but, slow. Have you ever had one of those weeks? I wasn't busy at work just surf the web, facebook, and anything else I could do for my 8 hours. I left during lunch to go home and sew. I had 7 towel wraps to monogram for my friends wedding party gifts. So, I finished those and I'm very please with them. I hope she likes them!! I will post a picture soon....If you have monogramming needs let me know I will be happy to do it! Then I had to do some bibs that Jessica gave me. I got about half of them done during the week then last night my needle kept breaking so after the 2nd needle I was done for the night....Maybe I will finish the other half next week. Again I will post some pictures!
Weekend plans - Well, it's Easter and we have a busy weekend. Thomas left for Fort Payne this morning around 6:45AM. He is getting new tires put on his car and getting something fix on the inside. Then he is going to help his dad do some stuff around the house. GiGi (Thomas's Grandmother (His dad's mother)) is in ICU. She has been having trouble breathing. They found a blood clot around her heart so they gave her some meds to help with that. They will look at it again in 6 weeks and go in and shock her heart. So, Thomas stop by to see her in the hospital. Please keep her in your prayers and thoughts. I have plans with some girls for dinner in Arab tonight and I can't wait!! Then I'm off to Fort Payne. I plan on getting up and shopping around Fort Payne to use some of my gift cards that we got for our wedding (I'm not a good gift card person I hold onto them forever....lol) and I hope to drop off the towel wraps to my friend. Saturday is also Brandon Family Easter so we will get to see the fam and then watch Preston play baseball that evening. Sunday church with his parents and then off to Arab to see my fam. It's stressful just writing it down.......Then I need to wash clothes and clean the house sometime (we will be getting our maid back after I pay off my credit card which will be at the end of May!!)...I'm tried just looking at everything we have to do this weekend.
Hope everyone has a Wonderful Easter!!!

This past weekend we just stayed at home. Friday was Thomas's off day so he help our friends (The Webbs) move into a new house!! The house is so cute and we can't wait to visit when everything is put in its place. My mom came by after her sewing class Friday night and we worked on some of Halle Grace's bibs. Saturday we were just lazy. We had such a busy week with this being the end of the year here at CSC and just getting back from Breckenridge, CO and I was feeling very good all week. Sunday was the same. It was so nice to just stay at home and spend time with just each other. We did however make a list of things to do on Monday....Which one was call some roofing people to see about getting a roof. So today (Tuesday) we are meeting with two of them to get some estimates. Maybe we will have a new roof soon!
Today I have been thinking of some cute ideas to get the little ones. Thomas and I want to do something for all the little ones for Easter so do you have any ideas??
Have a wonderful Tuesday........
