Date Night

I had a date with my hubby last night. We went to 356, a yummy/romantic sushi bar in Clemson. You know what's so exciting, I have more fun with him and I love him more now then when we first were married. If things keep getting better year after year, I will surely burst with happiness by the time we're in our 70s. We've been married 8 years this year. I am so glad that I don't look back at high school or college and think "those were the good ole days..." because to me, these days are the best.

A Rebellion

Today is an excellent day for my children to rebel. I have almost completely lost my voice due to a bad cold, and I just had my eyes dialated at the eye doctor. So, I can't see or speak. Hopefully my vision will return before they (Nate & Henry) burn the house down. Someone should check on us soon!

I ran my second race today! A 5K with my friend Tara. We didn't win any prizes, although we really wanted to win a door prize because they were giving away stuffed llamas. Here is a picture of me and Tara, and her sister Kristen in October when I ran a 10K. I forgot the camera today, so I don't have any pictures. Thanks Tara for running with me.

Easter Eggs

It's the day after Easter, and you have a refrigerator full of beautifully decorated eggs. What do you do? You make Egg Salad! Yum! Now for those of you who are egg salad fans, my recipe is quite simple: chopped up boiled eggs, salt&pepper, and mayo. (If any of you have a better recipe please pass along.) For those of you who have never tried egg salad, well, don't knock it till you've tried it. NO, I don't like mayo either. Be sure to toast your bread when you make your sandwich. Enjoy!

He Lives!

"He Lives" is one of my most favorite hymns and of course we sang it Sunday morning! What a fantastic Easter it was. Easter is one of my favorite holidays because all the pressure of gift giving isn't there, it's just a great celebration! We spent the day with family (like we do on most holidays) and it reminds me and Bryan of how blessed we are to have a big family that live close enough to get together frequently.

Cool Costumes!

Check us out! Here we are dressed up as a bible family for a play at church today. Nate loved being in it & Henry had a hard time understanding what was happening to Jesus. Tim (the guy in charge) did a great job with a lot of kids & adults who weren't sure what they were doing! I played Mary, somehow I am sure that she didn't have short extra light blonde hair.
