#29 I Wore This Today

I'm pretty limited as to what fits me now that my belly is out there. And comfort is always my top priority.

Week 17

Write about the craziest thing that you have done in your life. 

Oh my goodness... This requires no thought whatsoever. By far the craziest thing I ever did was to tell Jeremy I'd move across the country with him so we could keep dating. I had just moved to Utah and we'd only been dating maybe a month or so. He wanted to move home to Tennessee to be closer to his aging parents and because schooling in state is much much cheaper than out of state tuition. I couldn't imagine my life without him and so I told him I'd go with him. He didn't answer me. So the next day I told him again. This time he responded, and we've been married eight and a half years now, so I guess the rest is history. It might have been the craziest, but it was also the best decision I've ever made, and I would do it again in a heart beat.

#28 My Sunday

Today was our last Sunday in our ward. Next Sunday is Stake Conference and the following week we leave. It was very emotional and even more so when we were given this book about Nashville that most of the ward signed.

"I'm glad that I live on this beautiful Earth, Heavenly Father created for me."

#26 Childhood

I got a phone call from my uncle Tom, he had some artwork from my childhood that he found in his storage unit and was going to mail it out to me. I can't wait to see what it is.

Week 16

What would you say is your biggest fear in life? 

Failing my children. I fear that I'll never fully heal from my childhood trauma and I'll never fully be able to move past it and be the mom I was meant to be.

Week 15

What is the last purchase that you regret? Why? 

This made me laugh. Honestly ALL my last purchases I regret because I'm super duper duper stressed out about not having enough money to make this move. I wish I hadn't spent any money this whole last semester so I'd have a few extra hundred dollars in my pocket... Oh well. We are selling off stuff, and a few things from Walmart that I still have receipts for are going back. One way or another we'll figure it out :)

#14 Water

Soaking a brownie pan

#11 Detail

Sometimes a pair of dangly earrings is just the detail you need to complete an outfit.

Shiner

His first black eye.

#10 A Place

One day I'll have a 'place' to do laundry. 

Then again...maybe not.

Armoire

We have a really tall really heavy armoire. The plan was to try to sell it to make a few dollars and also, because there was no way it was going to fit in the uhaul...it's too tall to stand up in there. After posting it to Craigslist with no hits, we decided to try to dismantle it and take it with us. Besides, after being in our new house....it will be completely empty without a big piece of furniture to help fill it up.

#9 Tiny

Pez...tiny pieces of candy

Moving Mess

Our dining room table is filling up quickly with things that need to be packed up.

#8 On Your Plate

Bugs

A handout for my primary class

Week 14

What is the best way to spend an afternoon out? Best way to spend it in? 

For me the best way to spend an afternoon out of the house is to be with my boys and some friends either at the zoo, the park, a play place...etc. Or with the boys and my husband doing the same, or doing a little thrift shopping. 

The best way to spend the afternoon in is to be done with all schoolwork and the boys behaving themselves. Either watching a movie with them or them off playing nicely while I clean up the house.

#7 Dreamy

Scrapped Knees

#6 Air

I had better ideas, but for the sake of being two weeks behind, and trying to play catch up.... here you go...the air!

Rocks

Lucas painted this rock in primary. I told him it wasn't coming with us to Texas (it's super heavy) and he had the saddest look on his face. So I guess it will be coming with us to Texas after all.

#5 Something Good

Dairy Queen ice cream with Uncle HJ and Aunt Cookie

No More Stink

In the words of Benjamin: no more tinky tuff

#4 This Happened Today

We went to dinner at Red Robin for Jeremy's birthday and the boys all took a picture with the Statue of Liberty.

Blooms

I love this time of year in Tennessee. It's so colorful.

#3 Something Beginning With A

Alexandra begins with A. And so here I am all natural. I'm weaning myself off makeup as much as possible because it makes my skin break out like crazy. The less I wear it, the less I feel like I need it, and so now when I go out, it's usually just some light powder and maybe some eye make-up. It's nice not feeling like I have to cake it on to check the mail or pick up groceries.

B.E.N.

Benjamin loves to spell his name, type his name, text it to people, and now he's learning to write his name! I'd say he's doing pretty darn well!

#2 Blue

Menu Planner

I'm back on my meal planner....I go through phases,sometimes I get sick of it, and then eventually I get sick of trying to come up with meals on my own.

#1 Play

The boys are so lucky to have Uncle HJ, he played life with them for a good two hours while Jeremy and I chatted the night away with Cori.

Coupons

I love saving money at the grocery store!
