What We're Eating This Week
Quiche, Spaghetti and Grilled Pork tenderloin are in rotation this week! I've been making my own spaghetti sauce from scratch and I love the taste. Makes me feel better to be eating something that isn't canned or processed.
Ham and Cheddar Quiche (looked and tasted very yummy- obviously!)
What I'm Reminiscing About...
For the past two summers I've spent a week with our niece, Ella. I'm going to miss my one on one time with her this year. Next year I'll come and even bring her a playmate! :o) Minnesota summers rock...the weather is awesome!
What I'm Loving.......
My new kitchen table! I think it fits the space so nice! Super excited to have it all set up. Now I'm just trying to decide if I should keep the chairs or switch them out for something else. Not sure if the black looks right.
What We've Been Up To.....
Lots of home improvements. This is the state of my upstairs currently and for the next two days. We are FINALLY getting the second floor painted. I'm excited to finally see what it looks like with color up there. Of course, having to organize, purge and clean is giving us the urge to sell our house now. So who knows- I think we are going to give it a whirl. New baby, new house...could be worse timing right? Ha! Remind me though to next time paint the entire house BEFORE we move in. Just a tip to any future homeowners.
What I'm Dreading...
Nothing!
What I'm Working On.....
I worked my last day at the Red Barn yesterday. Kinda sad. It's been an awesome place to work. I'm grateful that I had something to keep me busy and on some sort of schedule over the summer, not to mention that the ladies have been the sweetest to work with! (Love you, Martie and Laura) Yesterday I got to work on some holiday lettering and signs. I thought these turned out pretty cute. I may copy this on some scrap wood at my house for the holidays.
What I'm Excited About (and looking forward to next month)...
Next Friday is the kickoff to our Youth Camp at Jasper Cove Young Life camp. Josh and I have been working on the plans for this all summer. 200+ youth and volunteers. It's taken a lot of organizing and help from fabulous people and it's almost ready to go! Please say a prayer that everything runs smoothly and that Christ's presence can be felt at camp the whole weekend!
What I'm Watching/Reading....
OLYMPICS BABY!!!
We are an addicted household. I've been staying up WAY to late to watch events each evening. But how can you not?!?! These two images cracked me up- have to share.
Could you just imagine?!?! That would be some seriously hilarious tv! I would love to say I have a favorite event, but I really have enjoyed everything I've watched. Women's soccer, gymnastics, volleyball and any swimming are favorites.
What I'm Listening To.......
I've been starting on my Christmas music binge. Weirdo, I know. It's relaxing especially when I'm working on the computer for hours. I want this baby to hear it's moms favorite music!
What I've Been Wearing.....
I kinda covered maternity fashion last post but here's a typical stay at home outfit! Ha! If it fits, I wear it. :o)
What I'm Doing This Weekend.....
This weekend we will probably be cleaning up from all the painting. Fun fun. Next week my workdays start so I'm going to try to maybe prepare some freezer meals to get me through the first week of school. I'm sure the first week will have me in zombie mode. I may go on a small shopping spree since we find out TOMORROW if we are having a girl or a boy! Yay!
Happy rest of the week to you all!
