Ten on Tuesday...

1. This weekend was the Keith Urban and Taylor Swift concert. Lex and I bought tickets a while ago and then a few days before the concert, I happened to be listening to the radio when they happened to be giving away two tickets...I am telling you, I simply dialed the phone and just happened to win two more. Lex invited a few friends from school and we had a blast!

Me and Lex livin the dream!

Taylor - she was the cutest!

Keith - ok, maybe he's the cutest (well, after my Mike of course!)

And this would be right before he walked right next to me. And also right before Lex grabbed his butt.

2. Mike and I went to visit Graham Allen Harkenrider. He is the newest addition for our friend's Matt & Leanne! This is their third boy...

He's so tiny and peaceful!

I couldn't pass up this picture. His feet are so little!

3. Last Friday, Mike and I did the Relay for Life. It was super fun! I only got one picture and it was hideous so it's not going to be posted here. Use your imagination, we walked around a big circle track in matching t-shirts. Ok, actually the more I think about it now that picture didn't have a prayer!

4. There is a new catering business next door at work. I am not looking forward to the many days of a growling stomach because they are cooking delicious food next door....although, maybe they will give us samples! I could work part time as a taste-tester!

5. I am starting a new bible study tomorrow. I am really excited but it's at 6:30 AM. I am not excited about that. Could make for some super long Wednesdays but it will be worth it I am sure!

6. At this point if you haven't read the women's ministry blog, you should. www.glowministry.blogspot.com

7. I am planning a trip to the zoo with some of my little girlfriends, and I am so excited! Nothing like a girls morning out with 4 little ones! :)

8. Every once in a while, I get this urge to go back to school for a Masters program. Not really sure how I feel about this, but I am in one of those times right now, actually it just started today...to be continued

9. So I started this post about 4 hours ago and I am already over the back to school thing. Maybe that means it's coming just not quite time yet.

10. I intended to finish this last night (it's Wednesday, now) but it was a busy evening. So here ya go, I guess technically it's 9 on Tuesday and 1 on Wednesday! :)

You shut your mouth...

Is this not the cutest picture ever? I just found it on facebook and couldn't wait one more minute to post it! I think Ava-bear has a new hair style. And if you can move past the wild woman hair - check the arms! I love how chunky some babies are! And Ava, when you are 13 and this blog still exists...you can thank me for posting this. I love you little one!

***Update: This little one belongs to my older brother RJ and his wife Sara.

Thankful Thursday

1. My grandparents! I am so lucky to still have all four of my grandparents! Today I had lunch with 1 set and I was reminded when I left that I am on lucky little girl!

2. For this little one, and all the neices, nephews, and kids of my own that are to come!

3. Good people. Most people that I have run into over the course of my life are good. Sometimes I am blown away by the number of people who put others before themselves.

ANSWER...

The only two that guessed were a little high!

50 hot dogs...I will go ahead and state the obvious, that's a lot of hot dogs!

Wacky Wednesday Trivia

How many hotdogs did Takeru Kobayashi eat in 12 minutes in 2002 to set a new world record?

My Best Friend

Last night I had a rough one...it was again confirmed that other than Jesus, this guy is my best friend!

Ten on Tuesday...

1. This weekend is Relay for Life! I am excited to walk a little for a cure with Mike. I don't think I was the number one walker on my team (which was my goal) but I did raise $485 for the American Cancer Society. Can't complain about that!

2. An update from last week: I went to the preschool graduation and cried most of the time! The kids were so cute and I was blessed to see some of the fruits of my labor. I am so proud of the Ark Christian Preschool. And they even gave me flowers...I was blessed!

3. Tonight is Ladies night out! I am so pumped! I am looking forward to "being crafty". I say it like that because really I am terrible at this kind of thing! I will still have fun I am sure!

4. This morning the radio personality asked a trivia question: What item has an average temperature is 105 degrees? And a guy called in and answered: The Sun. I was cracking up for a good ten minutes. I don't know the exact temperature of the sun but I am guessing it's warmer than that!

5. I am dogsitting for a friend right now. The new addition to the Wilson Petting Zoo is Zac. He will probably with me for another week or so. Usually in the evenings when I go over to Mike's house I take Tucker so he isn't home all day by himself. So the last week I have been taking Zac too.
Mike and I have some friends who are going to have their third little one on Friday and we offered to keep their dog, Daisy for a bit. So if I end up taking the dogs over to Mike's to hang out....that's right there will be 4 dogs. I used to think more dogs would be fun but now I think very differently. One is good, two is perfect, three is not-fun and 4 will I am sure be down right obnoxious!

6. This Sunday night = Lex and I going to the Taylor Swift and Keith Urban concert! I can't wait!

7. If you are a female and reading this right now, you should get your hands on a copy of Captivating and read it immediately. If you are a male and reading this right now, you should get the book Captivating for a woman in your life. It is a great book explaining the heart of a Godly woman. SO GOOD!

8. Tomorrow night is book club, I am looking forward to hearing what the other ladies have to say about Captivating. I finished a couple days ago and I am so glad that being in Book Club forced me to read it.

That's all I got, sorry!
