Here are a couple pictures for funsies. They were taken by my sister-in-law Angie. On our wedding day (yes, you're still getting those pictures). And the first one is hilarious. We were playing and unfortunately (or, I think fortunately ;)) Angie caught me with the look still on my face! Haha... But picture two tells you how I really feel about this handsome husband of mine :).
Awww... Love it.
Anyway, I promised some fun facts. Fun for whom? That's yet-to-be-determined.1. There are ant carcasses strewn about my kitchen. Ah! Tragic. The weather has warmed and the ants decided to take up residence (or perhaps they were already here, but dormant...). I squish them with disinfectant wipes at 6 in the morning and then get busy shredding vegetables and then have to go to work... You know the drill. Point is, the dead ants (saying those two words together make me think of a joke I believe my Aunt Hila told years ago... "What did the Pink Panther say when he stepped on an ant?" Answer: "Dead-ant, Dead-ant, Dead-ant... (to the tune of the Pink Panther). Anyway. The dead ants are still on the kitchen floor. Along with some mobile ones at this point, I'm sure. No worries. We'll be dealing with that shortly.
2. A slug also came to visit last week. Jeremy discovered his slug slime on some less-than-desirable items. Like a cutting board. Ew!
3. My car is under the weather. It's hanging out at my mom's house, because it developed a massive oil leak on Sunday. So guess who has been driving Jeremy's stick shift car to work this week? And guess who hadn't driven one of those in about 3 years (or more)? And guess who has never driven one in the land of a million mountains and hills (aka Washington)? Yep. Me. I'm a bit nervous about killing it on the hills. I'll admit it. Stupid oil leak...
4. Jeremy and I watched The Great Race and ate garlic popcorn for our date night on Saturday. It was really nice and enjoyable to snuggle on the couch with a movie :). Purely awesome to watch that movie with someone who has never seen it before. Actually, purely awesome to watch it with someone who has! It's just a great movie. "Leslie escaped with a chicken!?!" If you've never seen it... you should.
5. We just got a WinCo here. It's a cheaper grocery store. You bag your own groceries. It's way cool. However, I wanted to miss the crowd on Friday, so I shopped at 7 in the morning. This is practically unheard of for me. I was pretty proud of myself ;). I was equally proud that I came in under budget and I bought extra stuff :). LOVE IT when that happens!
6. I've begun the name change process. That's good times. Turns out the bank is less accommodating than the social security office. Who knew?
7. I'm going to make home-made granola bars this week. I'm way excited about it :). White chocolate cranberry almond will be my first attempt :). Then chocolate with peanuts. Jeremy and I also made this for dinner last Friday. It was delicious, and not really all that hard! Took some time, but not difficult. I'm also getting the granola bar recipe from that site. I love it!
8. Easter was good. Jeremy and I ate dinner with Brad, Angie, Autumn, Christina, Nick, Desiree, Emily, my mom, and my grandma. I took creamed spinach and bread. Angie took roasted potatoes. Christina brought key lime pie. My mom did the ham. It was all really good and we were able to sit around laughing and telling stories. It was good. And my mom got the kids a toy that you push on and it says "Happy Easter!" Only, my mom thought it said "Hop the Rooster." I don't know why she would think that. But she did. In fact, at first, she told Brad that she thought it was weird that it said "Hop the Rooster." Brad set her straight. But how hilarious. Makes me recall a time when she said, "I'm pretty sure those trees are real." Fig trees, Mom. Fig trees. Hahaha... Best. Story. Ever.
There are probably other fun facts I'm forgetting. But this filly is fading fast ;). So I need to go to sleep now. So I can do it all again tomorrow. Yippy skippy! :)
