the weekend

ham giving me the evil eye. and ham with my parents. {i always said i looked more like my dad}

1. my parents took ham and cousin shawn out to ruth chris for their birthday dinner. of course ham didn't want to go but i think he was glad he did. he said he had filet, shrimp and an $8 potato and then half of grandma's filet which doesn't surprise me, the kid can eat. he also got 100 bucks because he knew which president was on it.

2. in college, thats how my parents would end the day when they came to visit. if i could name a president on a bill, i got that bill. i surprised my dad by saying grant one time. he didn't have a $50 bill but did give me 50 bucks.

3. ham is ranked 51 out 349 in his class. i am proud.

4. jisoo from joyful beauty asked how i make my mosiac's. i use big huge labs. its easy and free.

5. finally took the plunge and got a bissell steam mop. {they have a rebate going on on their website}

6. went to lowes to look for a new kitchen sink and faucet. didn't see anything that i had to have and prefer an under mount sink so i think we are going to wait till we put in new counter tops.

7. mike's doing a small version of the atkin's diet. {he says this is his last week doing it} its not easy and its making him grumpy. i think i will just to stick to eating smaller, healthier portions.

8. just as i start to see some green grass it starts to snow again. it is pretty snow so i can't complain too much.

9. happy that the amazing race is back on. after watching the first show last week and last nights show, i hope the cowboys win. they seem honest, funny and loyal.

10. as i was flipping through channels the other day i caught some of qvc's spring show. it made me want to cover my back porch with pretty flowers and mini fruit trees.

* kaylee was looking for a size in her undies and she says "my tighty whiteys don't even have a number"
