Fun Fridays! 1-28-11

Wednesday night, hubby and I ate pizza, watched Fried Green Tomatoes and finished up those bridal shower invites!  I saved the template originally thinking I was going to send them out as Valentine's Day cards, but thought they would be perfect for Em instead :)

thoughtless thursday 1-27-11

This weekend is my husband's bday! The only thing he asked for was to play pool. I think I'll also bake him his favorite cake in the whole wide world - funfetti :)

Happy List 1-16-11

After searching for a church to call home over the past two years, last Sunday, we attended a new church (new to us :) and we think it may be the one! And bonus, it's about 2 blocks away from our house so we can walk there when the weather is a little nicer! I'm very excited to meet new people and continue to grow in our faith.

The way we heard about the church, besides driving by it everyday, was several months ago, my mom had recommended I check out their woman's Bible study but I never got around to going. When we went to the service last week, in the announcements they had mentioned the woman's Bible study was starting their new session. So, Tuesday I went to the Bible study and there were about 10 of us in there. I loved it because there was a wide range of ages in there, from freshman in college to 65+ years old. We will reading out of the book, Having a Mary Spirit.


My ukulele arrived just in time for our next class and it was fun to play along with my new toy! This week we covered chords. I'm really looking forward to learning different strumming patterns.  Right now I'm kind of just making spastic strumming motions :)

We had our company holiday party on Friday night. This year, it was at a beautiful winery, a 100+ year old brick building.  I spent most of my time in the cellar talking with the owner about where they get the grapes, how long they let the wine sit in the barrels before bottling and other fun facts.  We had casino games, and at the end, I almost won a prize that was meant to go to the youngest employee, but there was someone else that had me beat! Oh well, it was a fun time and beautiful location.

So....I signed up for a beginner's ukulele class! Our first session was last week and though we didn't play, we covered a lot of fundamentals about how to read music. I suckered 2 of my other friends to join the class too!  I've been practicing all week and can play Somewhere Over the Rainbow, Hallelujah, and Forget You (by Cee Lo Green, you know - the song Gwyneth Paltrow sang on Glee!)! I've been renting this barbie pink kids ukulele until this baby, which is en route from the islands, arrives - SO STOKED!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I can't believe how fast the holidays went by! I spent my vacation doing A LOT of baking, reading (I'm about halfway through the Bible!!), crocheting and knitting, watching Hallmark Channel movies and taking care of my momma after her having surgery (she had an incredibly smooth recovery!).

I hope you too had a wonderful holiday season with loved ones!
