Just a pacifying post, until the next good one!!

I will not say this past week was not adventerous, but I did not get any good photos, or juicy stories to tell! That's the most interesting right? However last night a storm did blow through, so those of my out of state readers will now know that we are safe because I have a new blog entry = )!

Nothing happend last week per say. Then on sunday we had my Mom, and Cody's grandma over for mothers day. Brittiany and the kids joined us as well, and Tinsley came back home!

Food: Grandpa made us a nice ham with mashed pototoes! I purchased some cute cupcakes for the moms!
Presents: Along with the cupcakes above, I delivered a card and picture frame to cody's mom at her house. Then for my mom and grandma, they had a balloon tied to a tiki torch that i made for each of them out of wine bottles ( they are the cutest thing, but unfortunately I didnt take pics! They also got a candle wall decoration and cards!

We spent the day in the party pavillion with talk and laughter. After my parents left, brittiany and the kids, and I spent time in the pool, and the hot tub. Those of you who know "grandma" know the pool/hot tub is great for her back and legs, we were proud of her! Those who dont know here that's ok, she just struggles with pain a lot, so anytime we can get her motivated we get excited!

My cousin also graduated this day from high school, unfortuneatly we were not able to make it, but we are excited about him coming to Baylor in the Fall!

Monday I did chores and Cody worked, this is routine for us on mondays... boring! However when he got home we did have a steak dinner and watched the voice! We are rooting for our home town girl Holly Tucker!

Tuesday I litterally spent all day curled up and read a whole book. I needed the relaxing, I dont believe I have ever wasted a day like that. I'm not sure about cody but I personally get stressed with making sure things are going as planned in our everyday life, but also stressing about the things we have not accomplished yet, one subject in paticular, babies! I don't really bring this up often to distant family, and I'm sure all of you wonder, when we're going to spark that news to ya! But nothing yet = / So anyways, with all that on my plate, a book day was rejuvenating.

Today were the storms, we had some storms but nothing too crazy. However send prayers to Grandbury, TX, they had tornados and some reported fatalities.

Oh and for thoses following my weight loss progression on facebook, I havent weighed in a while so I am unsure if I am down anymore, however last week I quit sodas, so this should give me a great advantage, as soon as I have some results I will post them.

Also hands down for Cody, Yesterday marked 1 month nicotine free! I swear there are sunflower seeds in every trash can of the house, but I can deal with that for now ; )

Lots of love from Waco, TX!

  1. Wonderful update. We missed you guys on Sunday but totally understand. I really want to make a trip up to visit this summer - or maybe we could meet halfway? Reallllly wanna see you guys and of course meet little Miss Annabelle!!!

    I completely support your full reading day...to me, that is not a waste at all. It's so NICE...cherish those times. :)

    Congrats to Cody! And hang in there with your own goal, it sucks waiting on progress (trust me, I do know), but it will pay off if you persist.

    Hugs!

  2. Thanks for your sweet comment! We would love to see you guys too! Cody and I could always meet halfway in July, June is going to be way too busy. I'm not sure what Ali's plans are but I'm sure we could work something out with her. Annabelle is adorable!
