crazy week leads to a crazy weekend

So glad we are moving...but it has been one crazy week! :) My mom flies in this morning and she gets to be apart of the festivities of moving all the big stuff tomorrow. We are going to finish off the kitchen together and have it ready for all the cooking and food galore :) Have pictures soon...so tired i haven't taken any.

Well friday as mentioned before we closed on our new house. It was a nice day that started off with Chickfila mini's and a huge sleep over. Sunday Andrew got focused and hard working...he said i want to pack the kitchen...so that he did! Whistling while we worked :) The top picture is his number labeling that matched boxes...so i would know what was in each box! He soo good :) It was a successful day and i was able to take two car loads over to the new house after work today. Went by the electrical company and set that up, called the water and got that working...we will be up and running tomorrow! We hope to be completely in by saturday! So the journey begins...

Busy Bees

I always feel like i am saying 'We are busy this weekend!' BUT we are....we have now hit the wedding and baby shower season of life...we have like 3 of Andrew's friends getting married and then like 4 former students getting married and i can't go to all of them!On thursday Kimmel and i helped his best friend (and one of mine too if we are honest here!) propose to a WONDERFUl girl...we are so excited for them both. I had to drive the lovely maddie 40 mins to a special spot and i must say myself we got her there without knowing ANYTHING! she was totally surprised and the Engagement went of without a hitch. After kimmel and i set them up we finally saw each other and i was shaking and he was so relieved. Last night i had some girls from the youth group stay over...15 to be exact. so i kicked Kimmel out to go play with his boys. We had a great night of worship, sharing and just being silly! It was fun!! Today i have a wedding at 3 and then a Couples Shower at 6:30! I told ...

Andrew and i are in the process of purchasing a house. Due to this i am packing and unpacking, going thru boxes of life. I found this toy my mom had saved for me, My Pretty Pony. A bigger Pony from my lil pony company. It is kind of raggedy and obviously old but i don't want to get rid of it. Will our children ever play with it? you might ask...I am thinking no. The ears are gone that used to move, and the hair is just nasty. So why don't i get rid of it?? Cause it was mine when i was little, and my mom has instilled this nasty thing called pack rat sentimentality, and i can't get rid of it. (sometimes sin feels that way) So all that to say i am struggling with the packing and unpacking and the throwing away...its my life that he is asking me to sort and throw away...but if my life ended none of this junk would be fun for him..it would be a burden! ALRIGHT ALRIGHT already i will get rid of it :)

So today after my 3 hrs in the office (part time hrs :))i went to target to get some groceries, ate lunch, and realized i was feeling a bit icky. Like something was wrong...a coworker had asked me earlier 'what was wrong with me cause your being weird susan'.... not sure what that is.... so i laid down a bit to relax, we had a fun big event last night for our students so i was tired....it was our annual Lip Sync that raises money for missions, either across the sea or in our backyard. Each 'team' or small group performs to a 3.5 min song or montage of songs for 1st place. It was an idea spun from a desire one of our girls three years ago. Do something fun and raise money! So after laying down for a bit, i went to check the mail...and i saw that our yard had some weeds...so i stopped to pull them. As i was the breeze was blowing on me...cooling me off...and i realized there were birds chirping around me...like 4 or 5 of em. :) It was a nice moment with the creation of ou...

Midnight Movies

How much do you love your husband? So much that you would give up something to be with him and do something he loves? Oh yeah! Hopefully we ALL do that at some time or another. For me it has been Midnight Movies! Sounds like don't throw me in the briar patch but really i hate seeing any movie starting after 9!! it just gets me too tired! Andrew on the other hand is a more free spirit when it comes to time and movies....he loves movies more than i do. He would rent a movie every night if i 'let' him. I get annoyed with that much time being sucked up from my life! hahaha so i know seeing a movie or renting one is speaking his love language...i would rather play a game or talk of course! :) We saw Ironman 2 last thursday night and last night we saw Robin Hood. Both were excellent movies and i will be purchasing them for him. Although i get burned out from movies every night i do like to watch the same ones over and over :) You need to go see them...i give them 2 thumbs up!
