Life Lately

Life lately consists of...

going to work, coming home for lunch, going back to work, coming home...rest...eat...sleep, repeat.

Seriously...I feel like that's my life. Of course we have had some random events pop up...

Like having baby kittens. For some reason we have a lot of stray cats that like to play around our house. In the winter they sit and fight under our house and keep us up all night. Well, a few weeks ago Greg went to our shed to get our lawn mower out, and well, there are four baby kittens living in our shed. We've got two gray, one black, and one super cute one with white and grayish/brown fur. They hate me. They will not come near me, and there is one gray cat that I actually got that hissed and clawed at me the entire time I held it. Now they all kind of hiss at me, even though I have told them multiple times that I am NOT going to hurt them. I just want to be their friend. Oh well...we can't have pets here, so I guess it's good that I don't consider them pets...right?

Second, we have a broken car. Like broken/tried to fix but still won't start car. So we're in the process of hunting for a car. Yeah, that's loads of fun! We don't want to spend a lot, so that kind of makes it hard, but I'd rather buy a semi-crappy car now and save our money for someday to buy a not-so-crappy car. We are one-car people now, and it's been fun. I drive Greg to work, then go pick him up on his break so he can take me and drop me off at work, then he comes and gets me after his work for lunch and we come home and then I take the car back. It's not been too bad I guess, but wouldn't mind having a second car.

We've had a great, relaxing Memorial Day Weekend. Yesterday was our 7th anniversary, and apparently we were supposed to gift each other desk sets (?) and plan a trip that takes us to a place where there's lots of sheep. Sounds like fun, right? Today we slept in, then went to the Avengers at 12:30 and sat on the very front row (awesome!) I really like the show...better than the other individual shows, I thought, plus Thor and IronMan are super good looking, so that was great. Then we got Cafe Rio, and now we're home. I'm doing computer stuff...Greg playing games. Both not wanting to work tomorrow!

Gotta love life!

(Oh, and just FYI, I will be posting some catch-up posts eventually...some dating back to a year ago. Just thought I'd warn you. It's more for my sake than yours! ;)

Easter Weekend

I've been meaning to do a major update but there has been such little time, so I'm just gonna post about me Easter weekend. I actually had that Saturday off (*shock*) and it was awesome.

Greg decided to hold an egg hunt for the Elders' families. It was kind of last minute but we had a great turnout ... (better than any other activities, that's for sure) but it was fun and I think the ones that showed up had fun to.

Right after the egg hunt Greg and I went to a 3-hour long CPR certification class. Totally awesome and not boring at all...lets also just say I hope I never have to do CPR and more importantly receive CPR from anyone in that class...okay a bit rude. But really. It was nice to take the class with Greg and my SIL Shaina instead of by myself.

After class we went and got food. Then ate and relaxed for a bit. Then Greg and our neigbbor went and picked up our new bed that we bought...in the nearly 7 years we've been married we've been sleeping on a mattress on a floor, so it was nice to get this. We love it, despite the fact that Greg keeps stepping on me getting in and out of bed. We had fun putting that together.

The rest of the weekend was pretty lazy. Movies, eating, church, etc. Super great weekend in my opinion!

29 Feb - Today I Love

February 29, 2012

{Today I Love}

I love that there are 29 days in February this year. It's totally random, and I guess I don't understand why February gets shorted days. Why not just give them 30, and change the months with 31 to 30, and every 4 years, give one of the 30-day months 1 more day. Totally makes sense, right? Pretty interesting I guess.

But really, I love that February is over. Crazy how time is flying!

{Today I Love}

Today I love date nights with Greg. We don't "go out" very often, but we went to the Olive Garden where we had some semi-delicious food, and pretty much enjoyed our night together. I love eating out anyway, so spending it with my husband just tops it off!

{Today I Love}

Today I love all my nieces and nephews. I've got 11 now, and they are all cute, adorable, pains, etc. in their own ways. Well, except maybe #11, because he's brand new...TODAY!

(this pic isn't from today...it's from the future, but we won't get into that!)

I haven't met him yet, but I sure do love him already.

I love being an aunt, and will claim my title as favorite aunt to ALL my nieces and nephews...probably forever, because I have legit reasons. But again, won't get into that one. I look forward to being an aunt again and again...I've got another nephew on the way (future knowledge), that I can't wait to meet, but will have to wait until August or so, and at least 6 more from the mom and dad of the cute little guy above (according to Annie).

So yeah, basically I love being an Aunt!
