Project Life - Week 6

Sunday- In my opinion the best part of the Super Bowl this year wasn't the commercials or even the game... It was the cinnamon rolls that Miss Carol made. Oh my goodness.

Monday - I have been working on this blanket for a year and I'm getting a little tired of it. I'm ready to get it finished so I can start a easier, or perhaps just smaller project.

Tuesday - The prettiest plate of Valentine cookies showed up at red door today. They taste just as good as they look.

Wednesday - We got a few more things for the Peanut's room. After seeing the price of this lamp an comparing it to some others we couldn't pass it up. The bin was on clearance which made it pretty cheap too.

Thursday - Handy found theses cheez-its at the store. We tasted all the flavors and decided that colby jack was our favorite.

Friday - Punky actually ate a whole bowl of food at once! His eating habits have been random lately so this was reason to celebrate.

Saturday - We were feeling pretty crafty at red door. It was pretty cold and snowy so we decided to stay in and get some things done.

Project Life - Week 5

Sunday - We finally picked a name for our girly! I knew that I wanted to put the letters above her crib but we couldn't do that until we picked a name. After seeing how expensive the letters were I'm glad we didn't pick something long.

Monday - I always come home to baskets of laundry on Monday. I manage to get things washed, dried and folded on Sunday but run out of steam when it comes to putting it all away.

Tuesday - February heat wave! I traded my sweaters for a short sleeve shirt today. Let's hope it's not freezing in the spring since the winter has been so mild.

Wednesday - 1st pup strut of the year! It's usually April before we get to take the boy for a walk. He was super happy to get to go this early.

Thursday - When Bevo wants us to go upstairs he gets a toy and waits on the landing. Apparently he had been attempting to get us up there for awhile because when Handy went to go take a shower there was a pile of toys the boy had carried over. Of course he only carried the tire upstairs and we had to clean up the rest.

Friday - We got the Peanut her first racing t-shirt. Handy found these on the clearance rack and we couldn't pass them up. Now we have two 99 fans at our house. We will have to find some Kasey Kahne stuff for her too. Less than a month until Daytona!

Saturday - Dinner at Park Street. Handy got some Thai peanut butter wings... I may or may not have eaten more of them than he did.

Project Life - Week 4

Sunday - This chicken-y dog doesn't like to take baths. Unfortunately with his itchy skin the vet said he needs to have 2 baths a week. He will go into the bathroom but won't get into the tub by himself.

Monday - These should come with a warning label. We stopped at the store to get a few things we forgot on our weekly trip and picked them up. Of course we had to taste them when we got home and almost ate the whole bag... yikes!

Tuesday - Happy National Peanut Butter Day! Me and the pooch are the peanut butter eaters in our house. He wasn't quite sure why I was sitting on the floor with him holding a jar of peanut butter.

Wednesday - It seems the hunger strike is coming to an end. Bevo actually went out and at some food on his own. Handy ended up starting dinner half and hour late because he didn't want to disturb the dog while he was eating.

Thursday - Time for my weekly date with the receipts. I don't mind it unless the checkbook doesn't balance.

Friday - I got the photos for the first 3 weeks of Project Life printed and put into my album. I'm super excited to actually have a book of my photos when I'm done with the year.

Saturday - We finally made it to a basketball game this year. There wasn't much time to spare since the girls only have 5 more games before tournaments. They played pretty well and ended up winning 61-35.

Project Life - Week 3

Sunday - We have started making soup for dinner every Sunday. This week we made White Chili. It was pretty yummy but a little spicy. Handy said he would make some changes to the recipe next time.

Monday - Bevo was excited to have a visitor! Of course the only reason any one comes down to our house is to see him, not hang out with his people.

Tuesday - We had to go to calling hours on Tuesday night. It was super windy and some trees were knocked down a few blocks away.

Wednesday - Handy has been using this cast-iron skillet for everything... steaks, cornbread, pork chops, gumbo, salmon, bacon... you name it, he's made it.

Thursday - Who is excited about the snow? This girl!!! It even snowed enough to get our first snow day of the year on Friday.

Friday - Movie night with the Mr.

Saturday - Lunch at my favorite restaurant! I tell Handy all the time he's lucky that I'm happy with a chicken sandwich and fries rather than wanting to go to fancy restaurants. We even had coupons!

Project Life - Week 2

Sunday - B was happy for us to spend a lazy day home with him. He wasn't so happy when I was yelling at the television during the football games.

Monday - We got a couple more things finished in the Peanut's room. It turned out really nice even though we pieced things together rather than buying a bedding set... it was much cheaper too.

Tuesday - Handy calls these "meat muffins". I don't care what he calls them as long as I get to eat them! They were super yummy.

Wednesday - I'm not sure what is worse... taking semester exams or having to grade semester exams.

Thursday - This is where toys end up when the pup isn't gentle enough with them. Poor Gator is missing an eye and has a leg that is barely attached.


Friday - the picture I took didn't turn out well... I will have to find a filler picture.

Saturday - We went to watch Kendra play basketball. It was pretty fun but we had never heard so much squealing. Apparently the coaches tell the girls to yell when the other team takes a shot. Kendra had 3 points even though her team lost.

Project Life - Week 1

Jan. 1-7

Sunday - We always take a New Year's picture in Aunt Pat's kitchen. She has a little step stool in there that makes me taller than the Handy man!

Monday - Apparently Handy's helpfulness isn't limited to just our house. He was tired of hearing the sign over at the church clank when the wind blew. One bolt and washer later all was quiet.

Tuesday - Bevo is on a lot of medicine right now, which is good for him since his hunger strike means that he only eats the two peanut butter treats we give him at breakfast and dinner.

Wednesday - I need to pay more attention when I get dressed in the morning. Mismatched earrings are quite a fashion statement. At least I had on the same shoes.

Thursday - The rocking chair finally made it into the Peanut's room. The pink cushion actually doesn't look too bad up there and it kinda matches with the other stuff we have.

Friday - We went up to First Friday to see the ice sculptures. It's pretty amazing what they can do with chainsaws and blow torches. I liked the dog the best.

Saturday - The sausage at the Cheese is always sculpted to look like a piggy. It's a little too cute and makes me not want to eat it.

365 - Final Week

365 days = 365 photos

Saturday - But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” - Luke 2:10-12

Sunday - Lari posed with me for a Christmas photo.

Monday - Our Christmas celebration took an extra day. Handy was in charge of bringing the gifts down because he can carry the most at once.

Tuesday - This boy enjoyed some extra time on the sofa after spending the majority of the last two days in his box

Wednesday - This is how projects usually go at our house. Handy works and the boy and I watch.

Thursday - Dear strawberry pretzel dessert, I love you.

Friday - I'm already putting my new planner to good use. Hopefully it will help me to not forget anything important.
