Miscellany Monday

Saturday, I worked out hardcore (I'm still feeling the burn) and then met my family at Oak Mountain State Park petting zoo for some good ole' family fun.

Have I ever bragged on the best nieces and nephews a girl could ask for?

The kids are seriously the best.

We bought some food to feed them and they seriously acted like they had never seen food before.

I was kind of obsessed with this donkey.  It was soo sweet.  :)

Saturday night, I went out to dinner with some friends/family and got lots of Colin love!

My sister and her hubby bought my dinner at Outback and they gave me ice cream on the house.

Sunday, I heard an amazing sermon on relationships at church and then I spent the evening at the CIRCUS!

Two peas in a pod.

I'm a little partial to the elephants.  I'm always so amazed by them.

It's been a tradition for me to go to the circus every year for my birthday.
I'm seriously like a kid on Christmas.

Justin had never been and he was pretty impressed to say the least.

After the circus, Justin and I ordered pizza and got Taken 2 on demand.

The first one is seriously one of my favorite movies and the second definitely didn't disappoint.

Loved it!

 

I have the best coworkers ever!!!
Happy birthday to me.

Happy Monday lovelies!

Miscellany Monday

{The Bachelor}

I love the new Bachelor and boy are there some crazies this season.

{Miss American Pageant}Autism doesn't define a person and I love that this girl didn't let her obstacles interfere with her dream. 

                                                                          {Church}

            I haven't been a member of a church since college, mostly just because I church hop quite a bit,
 but I have loved attending Church of the Highlands and I think I'm finally ready to commit myself to being
  a member.  They are starting a special needs program and I really want to get involved.  I'm really
              excited about this step in my life and can't wait to see what the upcoming year will hold.


They are doing a 21 days of fasting and unfortunately I didn't jump on the bandwagon until yesterday, but I've decided to fast potty words.  Sounds silly, but there is no reason to use them and usually they only slip out when I'm mad, so I'm giving them up.

{Valentines}

I'm getting in the spirit early this year.  I went to the dollar store yesterday and bought me some new socks and a new mug.  I definitely snoozed less this morning because I was so excited to use my new mug.

{Chef Steph}

 

I love my new apron.  I finally put it to use last night for the first time.  :)

Last night, I made buffalo chicken meatloaf.  I've never been a big fan of meatloaf, but Justin loved it so it's a keeper.


{Roaring 20's, Rolling 30}

 

Saturday night, we had a surprise 30th birthday party for Jonathan.



The girls putting the photo booth to use.

{Nails}



This week's mani.

{Holding hands}
with Colin...enough said.  :)



 Happy Monday lovelies!

Write random and link up.

 

 

Life is crazy busy with school starting back.  I spent the majority of my weekend doing school stuff and sleeping.  I was sick by the third day of school so I was beyond exhausted by Friday.

 

The same day that I got sick, my baby nephew, Gavin Michael, was born.

He is in the NICU and having episodes where he stops breathing.

Prayers are definitely appreciated.

He is an adorable little angel and is so loved.

I finally got to see and hold him on Friday...I can't wait to be able to hold and snuggle him without sneaking around.  Technically only parents and grandparents are supposed to hold him, but I snuck in a little picture.

His big sisters, along with everyone else, are so in love.

 

 

I'm excited for the second week of school.  I finally feel like I'm getting over the hump of all the stuff I need to do.  I defnitely feel like I'm getting into more of a routine.

 

Oh yea, and I'm on a mission to lose 15 pounds....I'm so serious about this.

 

That's about it for today.

Happy Monday lovelies!

{Bird Feeder}

I'm slightly obsessed with all things "birds" right now....hence the bird feeders.

I haven't hung the little teacup one yet.

 {School Projects}

Some of my DIY projects that I did for my desk/office.

{New teacher clothes}

 All but the colorful dress and the skirt came from consignment...I love a bargain.

{Jason Mraz concert}

Saturday night, a couple of friends and I drove up to Atlanta for Jason Mraz/Christina Perri concert.

It was fabulous!!!

{Hair Chalk}

While I was school shopping, they were doing free hair chalking.  I'd tried this with just regular sidewalk chalk, but you have to use pastels.  I love this!

{Grilling}

Last weekend, a few friends grilled out and played mini frisbee golf....so much fun!!

{First day of school}

5 days down and still tons to do, but ready or not....kids start today!!!!

Wish me luck!

 {Lauren Conrad's 7 days to skinny jeans smoothie}

Delish!!

{Hiking}

Our dogs love hiking days as much as we do!!

{Classroom Door}

Pinterest, of course!

{Comedy Club}

Friday night, we laughed a lot.

My friend, Heather, won some free tickets to go to the comedy club.

Always so much fun!

Happy Monday lovelies!
