tuesday ten

1. it rained all weekend and i loved it.  rain is my favorite weather.

2. i have bieber fever and i think the kid is an absolute doll.  em and i saw his movie and he really seems like a great kid.  hopefully he doesn't go all typical teen star and make me wish i never went let my kid go gaga over him.

3. ethan has new furniture and it makes my heart go pitter patter.  maybe because my hubby made it perfect.

4. i am going to do a Bible study with some of my friends and i can't wait.

5. i am seriously thinking about being vegan-ish.  nick already gave up dairy months ago and i pretty much have, with the exception of greek yogurt and creamer.  animal protein does some nasty stuff to our bodies and i am having a hard time stomaching that.

6. my fingers are currently covered in spray paint.  you know what that means... yep... i spray painted :)

7. we are taking our kids to the grand canyon soon... can't wait, i love the gc.  i hiked it ya know, stayed overnight at the bottom and hiked out the next day.  amazing.  except for no running water due to a flood and getting pelted in the back of the head with a rock.

8. i've never been snow skiing or snowboarding.  i love to wakeboard... it's warmer.  i love the snow and all, but not actually being out in it.

9. i use ........ too much, but i'm ok with that.  i'm secure in my identity and am capable of admitting my puntuation abuse.

10. i'm planning on redecorating our master bedroom.  hopefully nick will read this post and will find out here... much easier than breaking the news in person.  l♥ve you babe.

happy tuesday.

girls scout cookies galore

this is what a distribution site looks like.  a high school parking lot with every single parking space filled with cookies.  the spots that are empty were already picked up.  amazing.

a couple of us crazy enough to get up to pick up the cookies.

and proof that i wear flip flops all year long-even in "winter"

em's portion.

i'm glad she's excited because now the work of delivery begins!!!

happy sunday.

tuesday ten

1. we had a mno (mom's night out) with our moms group on friday.  my girls got tailed through the outdoor mall by security and then kicked out.  did i mention we were all dressed in wedding, prom and hideous glitzy dresses?  and it's a church group.  we represent well.

2. whole wheat toast with pb and sliced strawberries is a fantastic little pick me up mid day.

3. my computer crashed last sunday and i was without technology for a week, aside from my phone which i'm not counting, although i really should.  and my hubby was out of town so i couldn't even use his.  i'm pathetically addicted to my computer.  he picked up my new one last night and i held back until this morning.  i wasn't going to spend the evening of l♥ve on the computer.  instead i fell asleep on the couch at 8:45.  romantic.

4. my weekly purchased tulips were duds and shriveled before they opened.

5. we were at the park yesterday and the tooth fairy came by.  ethan hid in the train.  he was cool when he thought she was just wearing a pretty dress with wings, until i mentioned that she was the tooth fairy (handing out toothbrushes, of course) and he didn't want a thing to do with her.

6. we had a massive purge day on saturday and we took about 250# of crapola to gw and i'm still on a roll.  the "scrapbook room" is under major scrutiny.

7. my life is happy.

8. i want to repaint the entire downstairs.  i think nick mentioned something about taking a poster to every paint store in the area that includes my picture and a  "do not sell paint to this girl" message.

9. my front room has been taken over by girl scout cookies, which for some might be a problem, but not for me, i don't eat them.  i still have 4 boxes from last year.

10. you should never go paint pottery with a group of girlfriends.  it's a well known fact that we never shut up and sometimes talking is a distraction.  i have a decorative plate on top of my cabinets that reads "happy everythiing"  it took me 3 months to notice the mistake.  my dad was here when i noticed it and he laughed at me, he saw it right away and felt bad so he didn't say anything.  he also wondered how long it would take for me to notice, but he just thought he would come over and it would be gone someday, he never dreamed he'd actually be here for the realization, which i'm sure was hilarious for him.  i left it up, it makes me smile.

happy tuesday.

pray for kate

i feel led to share this with you because there is no such thing as too much prayer.  there is a young girl named kate mcrae that lives just miles from us here.  many of my friends are close friends of her family.  even though i don't know them personally, i am very touched by their faith in Jesus.  my heart has been heavy for their family since the results of her mri on tuesday showed new spots on her brain that they believe to be cancer.

please visit their site and pray for kate and her family.

there is nothing that He can't do.
