Hello!

I come to you from my kitchen table, in my PINK Snuggie, drinking my Dukin Donuts coffee....WONDERFUL is an understatement!

This weekend has just been amazing...no big plans...and we love it! Friday started out with a wonderful day at school with my students, who I'm beginning to get really sad that we only have 43 days together. Can you believe it?!?!?! My first year is almost over and it's just been so wonderful! Then I came home and played with Miss Lucy...we had a photo shoot! She just loves her new yard! Then I read on the back porch...heaven! Then we were off to the lake...Miss Lucy's FAVORITE place! M and C met us there, they live so close they could just walk, so they enjoyed seeing Miss Lucy swim for the first time this season! Then we went home and just relaxed with some margs at home and caught up on our DVR! (DVR's are THE best invention ever!

So earlier this week I was trying to upload pictures to blog...because really blogging with no photos can be very boring! But for some reason the camera wouldn't upload pics...but we received our first housewarming gift from M and J! And we LOVE it! Look how personalized it is!!

So sweet, THANK YOU M and J!

Now for the photo shoot of Miss Lucy!

Isn't she just the prettiest dog ever?!?!?!


And the SWEETEST dog too?!?!?!

She just loves the camera!



So onto the rest of our weekend...I know your on the edge of your seats! haha!
Saturday morning, I got up early and picked up A and we headed to 5 of our students soccer games! It was such a pretty morning, with perfect temps for soccer! We decided that one day we will be perfect soccer or some other sport Moms! haha!



Aren't they handsome in their uniform?!?!

What what!! Two 5th grade teachers with our students! :) They didn't win, but it was still so fun to watch and then hear their reasons for not winning.

When I got home Mr had started some projects around the house, and I joined in! We are having so much starting to make our house a HOME! But before we went to Home Depot...which I have a new LOVE for, we stopped by to see our new baby ETHEL!!!!

We CANNOT wait to bring her home on the 2nd of APRIL!!!!! Only like 12 days!!!!

Look at her lovin' on her Daddy!!!

And of course her Mommy...she is going to be a Mommy's girl...especially since Miss Lucy is totally a DADDY's girl!!!

Look at her coloring...it's PERFECT!!!!

So, she is 6 weeks old today...can't believe it!!

And she is 2lb. 7 oz.!!!

I actually get to take the day off to get her, because I went to that conference over our Spring Break...I get 3 comp days!! So I'm taking one for the day we get to pick her up! I'm sooo excited!

So after we visited with little Ethel, we went to Home Depot! I know I know, that store used to be SO boring, and now I'm obsessed!!!! We bought a hanging plant...which I picked and is my plant to take care of...see Mr. is the one with the green thumb...but he is teaching me! And we bought a planter and a nice plant to go in it! We actually bought it that orange color they all come in and the Mr. painted it black to match our house. And we bought paint to paint a rocking chair and table we already had! And we had to buy a garden hose, for all of Mr.'s plants!

Here are the additions to our front porch!! We love it!

O, and we picked up a sample of a paint color for our master bedroom, we are seeing how we feel about it, but I'll share as soon as we decide! Then we ended our wonderful Saturday with to-go from Agua Linda, and a nice long walk with Miss Lucy!

So, as you can see, we've really enjoyed our weekend! Today, we are doing some things with church, ironing, and getting ready for a nice long week! I have three days of parent-teacher conferences! But we are looking forward to another nice weekend!
