On the menu:
Grilled chicken (topped with Garlic&Herb Laughing Cow Cheese)

Jesus, please send us some sun!


Yes, it is pretty on the grass, houses, and trees.
But, NOT on the roads.
All it makes is a icy, snowy mess.

I feel loved...

Today, I watched Chandler after church. I promise we must have played hide something under the blanket about 200 times...and she laughed EVERY single time! :) so sweet!




We played and had a great time. After a few hours, her dad came home, and I felt REALLY loved when she starting crying because I was leaving!
GOSH, that made me feel good!
:)


My sister and brother from another mother...



Saturday was a blast!
Started it off with PiYo and Zumba at the Y.
Hung out with baby Emmy for a few hours.
Picked up those cute kiddos in the pictures, Robbie and Myrt, and treated them to Subway and the basketball game with me. IT WAS A BLAST!

I love them so much!

What a Wednesday!

today was such a great day! I started off this morning with a lovely workout.

then, I went to a local elementary school and met my little reading buddy for the semester! I am going to work one on one with her every Wednesday morning throughout the semester. We are going to work on her reading skills. I am excited to actually start doing a little teaching!

I had dinner with a friend that I don't really get to hang out with that often, and it was GREAT getting to know her better! We had a great conversation at dinner!

*I also got my dinner for free because they messed up my order twice* WAHOO!!!

Then, I finished up my great day by going to AQUA! Brandon, our college pastor, talked about relationships tonight. Great sermon and the music was fun!
