Painting for A Cause

My Mom and I went and painted at a paint bar for a fundraiser! We have been before and painted Razorbacks but this time we painted crosses! 

It's always fun and I love going even though I'm not a terrific painter! HEHE!

I painted this for Emmalyn's room! I can't wait to see it hanging in her room! I'm going to add some bling to it before it's completely finished! The fundraiser was for a group from our church that is going to Juarez, Mexico in a few weeks! I really wanted to go but being pregnant I couldn't. Oh well, maybe I will get to go on the next mission trip!  Please pray for them as they travel and as they work in the city!

Friday night I participated in packing meals to send to kids in Swaziland, Africa with my church. 

It was so rewarding and so much fun. We packed over 34,000 meals and I already can't wait to do it again next year! Here are some fun pictures from the night!

Packing away!

Meals we packed!

It felt so good to do something for someone else instead of being wrapped up in our crazy world!

Monday Madness

It's another rainy day here in Arkansas and I woke up feeling a little yucky!

However, my Hubby brightened my day by sending me these beautiful flowers! Yellow roses are my favorite! He is definitely the best! 

The weekend was pretty good, I participated in this great event Friday night there is more to come on this event! 

Saturday my Mom came and helped me work some on Emmalyn's room. Sunday was of course church and I went with the bestie Emily to a bridal fair that afternoon. We had a lot of fun picking out stuff for their wedding. 

Today seems to be the only free day I have until Friday, it seems like it's going to be a busy week. Although it sure makes the week go by faster when it is! 

It's Wednesday...

It sure is a yucky day and doesn't help with my Spring fever! It has been rainy, icy, snowy all day. Thankfully, the roads here aren't bad yet. So I've spent the day being lazy even though I have so much I need to do. If you didn't notice I changed the background on my blog and I absolutely love it! I would however like to change my header and I'm not sure how, any tips are welcome! 

I have been reading these books and I love them! I'm on the third one and really enjoying them. They have movies too which I plan to watch when I finish the books. 

I'm really hoping tomorrow is not snowy/icy so I can get out and do some things! I am getting tired of being stuck inside! Hope you all are enjoying your day! 

Monday Randoms

It's a boring rainy day here so I've been catching up on blogs although I should be cleaning the house ;) I am so tired of the cold weather which means I definitely have spring fever! Any one else feel the same way?

I was sad to hear of Mindy McCready's death last night! I pray for her family during this difficult time. 

In other news, I officially can't wear my jeans anymore. I guess I shouldn't complain much since I'm 25 weeks pregnant and just now can't wear my jeans. It looks like I'll be making a shopping trip soon! I'm looking forward to my doctor appointment next week! I'll try to get a new bump picture up soon!

I have been going to the gym and using the treadmill to get my walking in! It gives me more energy when I walk and can get some exercise. I've also been reading a lot lately, got any good books to read?

I don't really have much more to talk about so I guess that's all for now! I hope you all enjoy your week and maybe I'll be more exciting next time! HA!

Weekend Recap!

Our weekend started off with playing games with my parents on Friday night. Saturday I went and registered for Miss Emmalyn. That night we went out to eat with friends and then played games. Today, the Hubby left to go back off to work so I have spent most of the day catching up on my TV shows. I gotta say that The Bachelor is not very exciting this time. I don't know they just kind of all get on my nerves. I have a busy week ahead it looks like so hopefully I'll have more to blog about and time to blog. I hope you all have a wonderful week!
