Shutterfly

I am making a photo book of 2009 of HH and I. My mom is scrapbooking our wedding, so there won't be too many pictures from the wedding itself. I am also going to put together the pictures that I had of us in 2008 in a separate book.

Has anyone else used Shutterfly? We ordered our Christmas cards from them, and they turned out nicely. I was thinking of ordering another book for my MIL as part of her Christmas gift.

Great Day OFF!!!

The MJ film did not disappoint! It was amazing!!! I had a great time with my BFF Wendy. I miss working with her. Good thing we talk about the problems in our respective classes/schools every single day on the way home from work. :)

SCORE!!!

My alma mater is playing the University of Kentucky next week at Rupp Arena in Lexington. I just scored tickets for HH and I to go off of e-bay. I hope we can go to my favorite restaurant from my college days afterwards, Charlie Browns.

I love DOING things!

Desire to Inspire Dinner Pictures

Tony Dungy did not disappoint! His message was amazing, and Dominik and I really enjoyed ourselves. You can kinda see in the picture how my hair has been chopped. A lady complimented me at dinner when Dominik went to the restroom. I was teaching him how to figure out a tip, and why it is important to tip well.

Just so you know, I have not given up on cooking. My calendar has exploded. I did manage to make two different soups (that I have made previously), so I could take something different for lunch instead of something frozen.

This came out when I was ending middle school, and I've loved it every since.

THE FOUR DAY WEEKEND!!!!!!

* Pampered Chef Party at Beth's House

Friday:

* The Titantic Exhibit in Louisville with HH
* Cooking Class "Date Night" with HH

Saturday:

Starting next week, I only have eight more days until my nice long nine day break in North Carolina!

Short Week

Here are a few shots my mom took of Ben and I at Baskin Robbins yesterday. I had pumpkin ice cream. We spent the afternoon at my parents, then Ben preached at a local church for their evening service.

I only have to work three days this week. Sometimes the shorter weeks are harder than the long ones....we'll see how the kiddos do coming back from Halloween. I have tonight and next week for GED. I will probably be teaching classes in January and February, but we will have to see. At least I have a good six week break from it.

If GED class gets out early, I plan on going to get my hair cut, it is driving me nuts. I want a bob hairstyle. I want to get more blonde in it as well, but I'm going to try to hold out for that until closer to Thanksgiving. My hair is getting a little too long for my taste, and I just want to wear it in a pony tail all the time, but have fought the urge thusfar. Also, my eyebrows need waxed like none other.

I also broke down and asked my MIL to teach me how to hem pants. I have seven pair of pants that need to be hemmed. I had HH call around to see the price of getting them fixed, and it ranged from $8 to $15 a pair. That is ridiculous. I will be learning that over our Thanksgiving trip down.
