Rave: Starburst FaveREDS

No more sorting through the yellow and orange Starburst candies to get to the good stuff - the reds and pinks. Starburst has finally taken the hint and created an ENTIRE package of candy with various shades of reds and pinks. Let me tell you, they're all of my favorites in one place. And there was much rejoicing in the land.

My surfer boy

We went out to Assateague Island, MD for the weekend so CO could get some of the hurricane swell. (Ask him for how that works...)

I caught a few good pics of him surfing...

 

 

 

 

Happy Birthday Seestor!

I don't have much else to say than Happy Birthday kt!

I still remember the day you were born...

Why I love our neighborhood...

Not only does our neighbor have beautiful flowers that have made me smile for months... but they also put out a sign saying to take some to a friend. And then they even included scissors to cut the flowers. CO thinks it's not an accident they're from the midwest (like his wife) :)

Registering

CO doesn't care what we register for... as long as the list includes this.

Boys are funny.

Military Program - Budgeting for Baby

I attended a class called "Budgeting for Baby/Baby Bundles" that was offered through a local Army Post. It had some good information on budgeting and basic baby care. This class was pretty small, though another class was full. I got tons of useful information on caring for baby - lots of handouts that I gave CO to read. Also, they gave us these cute little layettes for the baby - diapers, wipes, onesies, tons of stuff!

Also, the other lady who was in class with me talked about her church and so we tried it and liked it! We've been going there for about a month now.

Talk about getting a lot out of a military program!

ps - a lot of the stuff in the basket is pink. No, we don't know what sex our baby is yet. Hopefully we'll find out on Wednesday. I tried to pick a basket with gender-neutral stuff, but they all had some pink in it!

Sewing up a storm!

Some new curtains I just finished! The blue and white ones are for the guest room, but we're using them in our room now. The tree ones are for the baby's room!

 

 

 

 

The quilt is for my new niece, who is just over a month old!
