* Stopped by a Starbucks & asked if they had the Peach Green Tea Lemonade... SCORE!!! My Friday started off wonderfully! I never have wanted to hug a Starbucks employee so much in my life.
PGTL - the best letters ever at Starbucks |
* Ricky & I stopped at McAlister's... it was so empty. At 7:00 on a Friday. I asked him if the world was coming to an end or something... I've never seen that place empty. At least if it was ending, I was going out with my McAlister's tea.
* Barbara Walter's Special... anyone else watch it? Man, she's had a life, hasn't she? All the people she's had the privilege of sitting down & talking with. Can you imagine that kind of job?
Saturday
* knew it was going to be a busy day, so I got up early (thanks goes to my dogs for that early wake up all too) & got my T25 work out in. Still wondering when I'm going to have those before & after results I keep seeing on TV.
* Had everything wrapped & ready & told Ricky, don't make us late for our friend's baby shower. I just knew it would be him that would make us late.
* Went & met my sweet friends/family ("Framily" as I came up with the word this weekend) for a maternity session... it was so cool & beautiful. Perfect for a hormonal pregnant lady.
Such a pretty momma |
* So we pushed it with the time for the photo session. Momma & daddy were good to just head straight from there to go to the shower. I had to get home, clean up, change & then go.... so yeah, Ricky was calling me saying, "didn't you tell me we had to leave at 2:45?"... it was 2:40... oopsie
* Yep... we were late...
* Such a fun baby shower. It was the biggest I've ever seen in my life, but so great to see familiar faces & faces I hadn't seen in a long time. My favorite things someone told me, "You really exist off of Facebook" :) You know its been awhile of seeing each other when you hear that. At least Facebook keeps connections going.
* Ricky played a game they had for the guys of the shower... & he WON! Technically, Ryan, the daddy, won. But he's the daddy - he can't win. The baby is his prize.... so Ricky came in 2nd place. Kudos to my man for diapering a balloon blindfolded :)
Need a baby stuck with pins in the dark? Ricky's your guy. |
* I was a loser.. in a Disney music game! WHAT?!!? I know!!! I missed 3... the winner missed 2. I lost on Robin Hood, Lady & The Tramp & Hunchback of Notre Dame. I still don't remember one song in Robin Hood. ... I'm still hanging my head in shame over this. I now will watch every Disney movie & listen to every Disney soundtrack on repeat. This game just made my husband's life miserable.
Me after the Disney game |
* Ricky & I stayed behind to help clean up with the rest of the FRAMIY... lots of work is easier with lots of hands.
* It was a LONG day... we ended up getting home about 8:00 & poor Ricky fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. Diapering balloons is hard work.
* I stayed up to work on pictures & ended up watching Grease & Grease 2... I never get enough of Grease 2... Cool Rider!!!
* Why did anyone think any of these people looked like they belonged in high school. They look older then the teachers.
Sunday
* Was actually late to church to a Merge meeting because Grease 2 was on again. How can I leave before "Girl for all seasons" plays? Ricky may or may not be a little disturbed I know all the words to this movie, all the songs, & even the moves to the dances.
* "OH MY GOD .... I'm going to die & I'm wearing my mother's underwear" ... still one of my favorite lines of the movie.
* Great church service on Anger & a great service in our Merge group... love when I walk out with so much going in my head ... when it sticks, it's good.
* it was Grey & White day at church... not really, but when I saw this little boy, I had to grab a picture. Plus, I just love this little dude anyways. He's the most laid back fellow.. & dang cute!!!
* I had another photo session with one of the cool kids on our youth group - did some pics for some Senior photos... such a good guy. It literally was like, click, click, click... we're done. I told him he was so easy going - he said, "you just want me to sit like I normally naturally sit" ... YES! He gets it. :)
* I actually took Chasity back out for another picture. When we did her pictures the day before, on the drive, we noticed tons of yellow goldenrod fields... so she's a trooper & said she'd go back out for more pictures... especially because she's a 'yellow lover' like me... it was worth the trip.
* Chasity said the field reminded her of the poppy field in Wizard of Oz... I had to laugh when I was looking the pictures & saw she had on a blue & white dress... hello Dorothy? ... I think her shoes may have even been silver!!!! :)
* headed out to Target... the normal weekend adventure. Had to get there - yoga pants on sale for $10.00... yes please!!!!
* Ran across an aisle of red stickers in the Journal aisle. It was torture trying to decide. I showed restraint. Only walked away with 2.. wanted at least 5 of them. Dang... where's the money when you need it...
* Stopped at our Starbucks & asked for my heavenly PGTL & they said, "We don't have Peach in yet"... what? Did I say earlier I wanted to hug a Starbucks employee? this time I wanted to punch one. I take my PGTL seriously. I ended up with a Passion Tango Tea Shaken Lemonade... it was good... but no PGTL
Ricky's drink just looks pitiful next to mine |
* It was such a beautiful day... I didn't want to stay in the house, so headed over to my parents house to check out the horses ... who didn't want to be bothered during dinner time. I don't blame them.
* Billboard awards... was it me or was it kinda lame? & the build up of the Michael Jackson thing? It just made me realize - he's not replaceable... it was just depressing to me.
* Ended my night looking for one more showing of Grease 2....
How was your weekend?
I am sitting next to my daughter as I read this (yea!) and I turned to her and said I think I know someone who loves Disney more than you!! she said "not possible!" ha!
ReplyDeleteI will have to try one of those lemonades!
the picture with the yellow wild flowers is gorgeous!!!
Grease 2 is always fun. I have a friend who would not only sing along to every song but act the whole thing out.
ReplyDeletePeach Green Tea Lemonade is something I really MUST try! Sounds amazing! Those maternity photos are just so lovely! You're so talented :)
ReplyDeleteyes!!!!! Now that makes me want to go and watch it right now :-) Any weekend that involves multiple Starbucks runs and yoga pants on sale at Target....I'm so down with!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great weekend, but very busy. Love your pictures, as usual. Especially love the picture of the horse through the barn. You could frame that.
ReplyDeleteReally, you lost a Disney related game! lol That's okay, I probably would have too. I can usually remember a song somewhat, but forget which movie it was in.
Apparently I need to try this drink from Starbucks! And I love the yellow field pic! So worth going out again!
ReplyDeleteGoodness, you stay busy! Have you ever listened to the Disney station on Pandora? I bet you would love it! Chasity is absolutely gorgeous and that field is awesome! Oh, and your scarf...love it!
ReplyDeleteYou always have the best Starbucks drinks!!! How have I never heard of this Peach Green Tea Lemonade before? I'm going to try and hunt it down this week! And really, really love that picture in the yellow flower field - so beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteYour shoot turned out beautifully!!!!
ReplyDeleteI've never actually seen Grease 2 before!
