A Great Week-end

What a fun week-end! Heather came up from Lewiston on Wednesday night and we played the rest of the week. Thursday we scrapbooked and just hung out with Tif and kids and Linds and kids. I made taco potatoes for lunch and we scrapped almost all day. That night we went to Wendy's house and made beaded watches and bracelets. On Friday, we scrapped again and Jaimie and the kids came over also. I made chicken cheese soup and cornbread for lunch. That night, our girls week-end started. We went to Bajio for dinner and then we went back to Courtney's and got in our pj's. We played games, did fondue and stayed up late. On Saturday, 2 girls came over and gave us all a pedicure. It was fun. I have only had 1 pedicure in my whole life. It felt so good. We also watched a movie and then we went to Pita Pit for lunch. My first time and it was way good. After that we went home. David and Heather came over and ate supper with us and we just hung out and watched the Olympics. Needless to say on Sunday I had a 2 hour nap. I think I am still recovering, but it was really a fun week.

We Survived Valentines!!!!

The holiday is over. Hallelujah!
I am so glad it is Feb. 16th and that we survived Valentines. Everyday I would pray, please let me make it thru this day. And, I did. We were very busy for the holiday. Not just Saturday, but all week. Thursday, Friday and Saturday were all very busy days. We only had to stay late on Friday though because we were very organized and had really good help. It was a great success and I hope all of you had a Happy Valentines Day.
I only have to work today and half day tomorrow and then I get to have some days off and have some fun. Yippee!!!! We are having our girls weekend this week and I am way excited. Heather and Lizzie will be here tomorrow for 5 days and then the fun begins. We are going to scrapbook, make watches,go out to dinner, play games, sleep over, have pedicures and go to a movie. I'll be ready to go back to work for a rest. HAHA! No, it will be great. Have a great week everyone.

Happy Birthday to my Hubby

Today is my Johnny P's birthday. When we got up I decided to fix him some cornbread, bacon and eggs. We put candles in his cornbread and called it good for a birhday cake. He said that was great! I gave him some new "Brut"$20.00 and a kiss for good measure. I hope he has a Happy day. Some of the kids are coming over later but we are not having a party to speak of. I have a lot going on so I'm a bit overwhelmed to have a party. I have to teach Relief Society tomorrow on Strengthening Your Marriage and then the crazy week of Valentines will be starting. I hope everyone has a good day.

January

I haven't blogged for awhile and my last post was about funerals, so I decided I would just talk about January. January has been a good month. We have had quite a bit of snow and it hasn't been too cold. Nothing we can't handle. We have a few birthdays in January and the first few days of February. So, that keeps us busy and eating alot of cake. We don't need that I know! Courtney and Bryce share the same b-day-January 12th. Then, we just had Tyce's on Jan.23rd. Next is Bridger's on Jan. 30th, John's on Feb.6th and Conner's on Feb. 9th. That is 6 within a month. Then we top it off with Valentines Day. And, boy oh boy am I looking forward to that. It is a wild time of year. I am a bit worried because I don't feel like my help is totally up to par yet. I guess we will get there in 2 weeks. Anyway Here's to another January. Hope you enjoyed it.

More Funerals

I know this isn't the most wonderful post, but the only thing going on right now.Yesterday, Sunday we had 2 people in our community die within 8 hours of each other. Marie Orgill, my next door neighbor growing up, died at the hospital early in the morning and then Jim Dunn, who just lives around the block, died on his way to the hospital from an apparent heart attack. They are both older people but is still sad. Since I have been in the Relief Society Presidency, about 2 1/2 years, we have had 14 funerals. It has been unreal. So, tonight after work I get to meet with the other ladies and plan 2 luncheons for this week. I hope we don't have anymore for a long time.

I'm getting better!!!!

I am practicing learning how to put a picture on my blog, so here is my first try. It is beautiful and very springy. But, we will have to deal with winter for a few more months. sorry. Have a great day!

A NEW YEAR

Well, our New Year didn't start off very good. John and I were both sick. We had the worst sore throats and congestion. It was yucky! New years eve I went to bed at 9:30 in tears. My throat hurt so bad. John rang in the New Year all by himself. Before the night was over I had taken a ton of stuff trying to feel better and the next morning John took me to Community Care. My blood pressure was sky high because I had taken so much cold stuff. They gave me an antibiotic and put me on some steroids because they were afraid I would develop pneumonia. I felt pretty rotten for a few days. In fact, it is the 5th and I am barely starting to feel half way decent. I still have a lot of congestion and cough up a lot of stuff, but no sore throat. Yeah!!! I should be feeling great soon. John feels really good and didn't need any antibiotics. What a pair we are. Now, we can concentrate on our New Years Resolutions before the month is over! HAHA! I hope all of you have a healthy, prosperous, happy New Year.
