Packing and baby!

This weekend was nice and easy.   Friday night I attended a workout class with some girlfriends that was new and interesting.  

Saturday we worked a little bit, shopped for some last minute stuff for our upcoming vacation to Peru and worked on a little packing.

I also got the pleasure Sunday of meeting another new baby!!  My friend Sharon delivered her little girl Alanna Nicole Saturday night.   8 lb 12 oz and 20 in long.   She is a doll and I loved squeezing on her!!  Congrats again Sharon and Josh!!

Feeling the Love

What's been going on...............2 weekends ago was my birthday weekend - Super Bowl Sunday.    During the day Saturday; Mom, Lindsay and I went on our annual birthday shopping trip.  Rob took me to Flame that Saturday night for my birthday dinner - my favorite spot to go.   He also gave me a backpack from Dynamic Earth I was wanting for our belated honeymoon to Peru in a few weeks!  On my actual birthday Sunday, we went to church and I came home to prep for our Super Bowl party with the boys.  

Here is a picture of us at Flame:

Here is a picture of the boys and Rob showing our betting sheet and how I lost $6.00 to him betting on the Super Bowl.   What kind of deal is that??  Having to pay money on your birthday?? 

Last week I was taken to lunch by the office, my friend Sharon and my friend Brandy for my birthday - Score!!

I also threw a baby shower for my friend Sharon last week at the office.   She is being induced on 2/26/11 - almost here!   Here are a few pictures of the big celebration:

Last Friday night we celebrated my mom's birthday- dinner at Jimm's steakhouse and we all went to see the Broadway production of Beauty and The Beast at Juanita K. Hammon's - it was great!

Rob and I celebrated Valentine's Day yesterday - he surprised me with tickets to see Zac Brown Band in Arkansas in April!!!  -  Thank you!!!   The boys got him Valentine Cards and lottery tickets - he won $15.   I surprised Rob with a day of pampering - we went to get pedicures together and had a couples massage at Grove Spa.   They did an awesome job!   We came home to have "wine night" - I make a platter with all the good items to have with wine - cheeses, crackers, fruit, olives, chocolate covered strawberries - and we shared a bottle of wine from Hermann.   Very relaxing evening - Happy Valentine's Day sweetheart - sure love you!

Blizzard

Late post from last weekend - we really didn't do too much.  It was so nice out - I opened windows, dusted, cleaned, washed all the bedding.   I finished some crafty projects I need to do outside - painting stuff.  

Sunday and Monday we prepared for the Blizzard they were predicting.   Here is a cute picture I snapped of the boys watching Rob get ready outside.   Usually they get to go with him - Foster running around and Lazarus likes to go in Rob's coat! 

My office was closed on Tuesday because of the snow.  I think we got a total of 9 or 10 inches at the house on top of some sleet.   Wednesday my office was closed again.  My dad snow plows lots in the winter so Rob and I helped him out by doing a lot in Marshfield.   Then we cleaned off the driveway/porch for Rob's Aunt Pat, John Dickey's house, helped Gary shovel his drive and then came home to shovel our own.  I was exhausted!

Here's Rob working the plow.  I was on shovel duty for the sidewalks.

So now I'm back at work in the freezing temperatures preparing for all the claims we will get.   I do have a pleasant view of flowers on my desk that my wonderful husband sent me to start off my birthday month!!   Thanks honey - love you!!

Hope everyone stays safe and warm!
