Full Weekend Fun!!!


Kale and I have had a full weekend filled with fun. Friday night we went to Mellow Mushroom to meet my dad. The pizza is sooooo good there. We ordered the Cosmic Karma pizza and I could literally eat it everyday. I am a lover of all pizza ,but this one really takes the cake.
Love, Love, Love!!!!

Saturday we went to Commerce to the outlet malls. I got some new jeans from Gap and two cute tops from Jcrew. This one is my favorite.

I have had this neclace since Christmas and it matches the shirt perfectly. Can't wait to wear it with some cute pants. I figure I can wear this shirt into the fall with a cute cardigan over it.

Saturday night we went to eat mexican with my family. My little cousin got a scholarship to play football for Gardner Webb and he was home for the weekend. It was good to see him. He seems so grown up now. :0) After dinner Kale and I went over to some friends house. We played "Catch Phrase" and had the best time. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
This morning was church and I have to go back later for a meeting, so I think I am going to take a quick nap. ;0) We are starting new small groups in a couple of weeks and I am really excited. I want God to stretch me even more than he has been over the past couple of weeks.
Well, off to nap. Looking forward to a good week!!!

VEGGIES!!!

One thing that I love about the summer months is all the fresh veggies!!! Kale's family has a HUGE garden every year. His dad always brings us stuff like green beans, squash, zucchini, corn, tomatoes, watermelon, okra, potatoes, and all sorts of other fruits and vegetables.
I have also been participating in an organic food co-op. A group of people get together and order organic produce and other organic food items that are delivered every week. Kale and I are really trying to eat healthier and this forces me to use vegetables in my cooking that I normally would not use. Also, it is helping me eat not so much sugar and carbs to hopefully help with project baby. :0) It is surprisingly not that expensive for organic and I really like finding recipes to match the produce.
I can't believe it is almost September!!!! Next year I want to learn how to can things like spaghetti sauce, salsa, soup, etc...

Oh My Word...

...where have I been? Well, busy that's where. Here are a few things that have been happening over the past few weeks.
  • School started two weeks ago. I have a really sweet class. I only have 14 this year so that is a huge blessing!!!!
  • My graduate classes started back up again. Basically I have 2 huge projects due by the end of October and then I will be done!!! Yay!!!!!!!!
  • I finally finished the desk. More pictures to come.
  • I am on the hunt for two chairs in my living room and am planning a small master bathroom redo.
  • Went to the doctor again a couple of weeks ago. Found out my insulin level was a little high when he did blood work. Now I am on new medicine.
  • My camera is broken and I am very sad!!! I am on the hunt for a new one. Hopefully picture taking will resume very soon.
And lastly...
  • God and I have been going round and round the last couple of weeks. I have been in such a weird place, but I am thankful for a God who loves me enough to put up with me even when I am being a stubborn baby!!! :0) I'll write more about this soon. I want to remember every step of this journey.
Well, thats all I can think of for now. I'll try to post more later this week.
