The weekend is over, already?

Well, we didn't do a whole lot this weekend, since the weather was pretty crappy. I'm really dependent on sunshine for my well-being. Needless to say, I'm suffering tremendously!

We played the Wii, made some cookies, and basically just hung out. Too cold and icky outside to do much fun stuff, so we got out the cookbooks, and made some new recipes we hadn't tried before. We made calzones out of pizza dough, among others. All of it was a hit!!

We are making the last few of the plans for Vegas -- the kids are spending a few days with Gma and Gpa Blundell in Denver while we are away. Rumor has it they'll be going to the zoo, a life size aquarium, and a few other goodies. They should have a good time, too!

Not much else here today. Just getting back into the work week, and trying to figure out what special thing Jason and I can do for our anniversary Wednesday. If ya got any ideas of something close to home and cheap, let me know! Leave me a comment or call me!!

Have a good week, y'all!

This weather is just so crazy. Hoping to transplant our garden this coming weekend if the rain will cooperate. It was great to see you at Walmart. I'd love to do something fun this summer, too!

Hmmm...Wednesday, eh? I guess there's always 1/2 price margarita night at Angela's. LOL But there's also roasting s'mores at Chadron State Park...even if it rains, it's totally romantic. This Friday is open-mic night at Bean Brokers. Or if you could celebrate a day earlier (like a real surprise) the Musis (a Celtic Musical Group from Colorado) will be performing on Tuesday at 7:30pm in Memorial Hall (call 432-6360 for tickets). That would be totally COOL in my book, but I also really like Celtic music. And then there are two art exhibits at the CSC gallery. That might be neat. And it's FREE. :) We are hoping that "The Soloist" will be coming to our theater in the next week or two because we desperately need a date night. It's so hard to get out with really young kiddos, though.

Anyway...whatever you guys do, I hope you have

Really not much going on here today. I've been studying like a mad man, it's cold here, kids are busy, same old same old. I did find out yesterday my Aunt Marlene (Mom's sister) has non-Hodgkins lymphoma. She is doing some chemo treatments in the next couple weeks, and we'll see where it goes from there -- please keep her in your prayers. I also need prayers for my friends still struggling financially. Times are tough, and we all have to make sacrifices we typically wouldn't, but hang in there -- it will all be worth it in the end. One resource I can recommend on money expertise is DaveRamsey.com -- he's the guy responsible for the Financial Peace University that Jason and I took a couple of years ago. We wouldn't be where we are today if we hadn't taken advantage of that valuable resource. There is a link on the right side of my blog to his website -- check it out. I'd also be willing to talk to you about his information, too. Let me know! ...

Christmas Lists

I finally took a few moments and got the Christmas lists posted for our family!  I find it hard to believe we are at this point in the year already.  This has been a crazy year, full of roller-coaster emotions, such busy times, a few slow times, losses for some, gains for many, but it has been another year passed nonetheless. This year, we've seen many changes, and with each change, we learn a little bit more about who we are and what we're capable of. I'm going into this holiday season with a warm heart, and I hope you will too.  God has great things in store for all of us, and I can't wait to see each morning what He's prepared for me. Happy Holidays! Side note about the lists -- This is verbatim what the kids had on their lists, and I did not split the list between any of the family, so plan accordingly.  We won't be concerned about duplicates, as we enjoy shopping for ANY reason.  We're grateful for the thought you put into each gift, and are tha...

   This past weekend, we traveled to Deadwood with my “work family”, and had a great time. Some of the guys went golfing up near Sturgis (Boulder Canyon) during the morning, but most of us ladies had spent the morning checking out the sales in the citywide garage sales. We started off the trip by meeting together at the office and “caravan-ing” the ladies to the Prairie Berry Winery. With Jason’s back being injured recently, he wasn’t up for golf, so he decided to be our “DD”…          I had never been to a wine tasting, nor a winery, and never had been to Prairie Berry.  It snowed on us on the way up (see photo at right). What an enjoyable experience it was! We were allowed to try up to five wines, (only a half an ounce each), so I tried a variety, albeit most of them were the sweet wines. I am just not a fan of dry or bitter wines. I ended up purchasing some of their infamous “Red Ass Rhubarb” and some “Calamity Jan...
