Awesome weekend!!!

Okay, usually I hate the word "awesome" I always have but... it was such a great weekend, I will use it. ;-) 

I dropped JB off at work in the morning and then came home and got the boys us. I did some stuff around the house then got ready to run some errands outside the home. Seth needed a haircut (great place near the house does it for $5!) and they needed snacks for the night. Why did they need snacks? Because they went to Planet Wisdom Friday night. Woo Hoo! lol After we picked up the snacks we came home, ate lunch, and made sure they were all packed. I then went into action to get ready for my evening alone with JB. I used our good China, and set the table with candles. It was nice... 

By the time we ate, it was dark and romantic... I am getting ahead of myself though.... 

I fought traffic and dropped the boys off around 4:00 at church. Then fought traffic to pick up JB. He was not done with work so I patiently waited for him. When he was about ready, I ordered our food from Olive Garden (take out). We had a $25 gift card for it so that was nice. We then picked it up and came home. He hopped in the shower while I set up the food and such. He didn't know what I had done yet so when I was all ready, he was really surprised and pleased. Usually when you get take out, you don't get as much as you would if you had eaten there. Or at least that had been our experience, especially with places like Olive Garden. Not the case this time! We had enough food for lunch the next day as well. It was GREAT! The food was soooo goood!!!!! I hope I get a chance to eat that again sometime. I had the four cheese stuffed pansotti with chicken. He had the seafood alfredo. The food was just so yummy! We played some nice quiet music and just talked. We then watched a movie. It was a great night! 

Saturday we just were lazy for most of the day. We did get out and about for a bit and then of course we had to pick up the boys. 

The boys didn't get much sleep of course, but they had a great time. They really enjoyed it and enjoyed the preaching, skits, and fellowship. 

As we were pulling into the parking space after picking them up, Seth got a phone call from a place he applied for. He got an interview set up, which was today (Sunday) at 1:00. We dropped him off at the interview and ran to Target. I was so nervous for him. He sent a text that he was done. Since he didn't say he got the job, I didn't think he did. He was just wanting to surprise us I guess. He got the job! As long as he passes a background check, which won't be a problem, and turn in all his paperwork, he starts March 6. He is so excited!!! We are excited for him. It was a great weekend. 

Now I have to get the bedrooms cleaned out as the carpet cleaners are coming for our free carpet cleaning tomorrow morning! What a great way to start the week, huh? 

So happy the weekend was so great!

Happy Valentines Day!

The weekend didn't go as planned. When does it though, right? lol First off, we got a "blizzard" (okay, not by Ohio standards but by Texas standards lol)  We got about 9 inches!!! The whole Dallas/Fort Worth area freaked. LOL It was funny. All the schools were closed and that made them cancel the youth rally. Saturday we did do what John wanted on basically. He seemed to have a good birthday. Or at least that is what I hope. It wasn't a bad weekend, just not what I wanted. 

Now, this coming weekend will be a nice one. It will be just hubby and I from the time I pick him up at work on Friday until 6:00 on Saturday night! WooHoo!!!!! The boys are going to something called Planet Wisdom with the teens at church. Hubby and I are so looking forward to it. There will only be one thing that will ruin it. I cannot say publicly what it is but if you would pray that all would be taken care of by Friday I would appreciate it. 

Joshua sat with the teens this week at church! I was so excited to see him do that. He had been sitting with my hubby and I. He is starting to feel comfortable with them I guess. It is a big step for him and I am grateful! The other teens treat him fine and like one of them. 

The following weekend, JM will be moving in with us. What an adjustment that will be. lol We will manage though. I will be rearranging things the week before to make room for him. 

It is a busy month. I like that! Keeps me out of trouble! lol

Looking forward to the weekend!

This week should not be anything special really but I am looking forward to the weekend. Friday night the boys will be going to a youth rally with the church so JB and I will have an evening to ourselves. We are going to get dinner from Olive Garden and come home and watch a movie. That will be our Valentine's Day couple celebration. Saturday is JB's birthday. He will be 45!! Man is he getting old. LOL I don't know if or what we will do, but I am planning on making him whatever he wants for dinner and making him a cake too. If he wants to play football on the XBox all day, then he can. I am just looking forward to spending time as a family. We have coupons for a free game of bowling. Maybe we will do that. I don't know. Sunday is Valentine's Day but we will treat it like another Sunday. We will got to church, eat lunch at church as we always do, and then come home after the evening service. We will be home around 3:15 so and turn on the TV for the NASCAR race. It is the big race of the year, the Daytona 500. I won't stop hubby from watching it. I will sit and watch it with him I am sure. 

I just want to spoil my hubby a bit. He works hard all week and stresses over finances and such. I just want him to have a great relaxing weekend. I hope I can do that for him.
