Hot Cocoa Monday!

Thanks, Erin, for this. :) I have a score today of winning 4 and losing 2. Let's keep that going. Ha. I better stop now so I feel good.

This weekend was wonderful. On Friday was a crazy day at work, so I was happy to go shopping with my husband to accessorize for a dinner/dance we were going to on Saturday. Macy's helped me out the most with a purse and shawl, but I did eventually find shoes at Famous Footwear. They didn't seem to make my feet happy on Saturday night though! We were in the MoA ballroom. Who knew they had one of those? It was eerie being in the mall way past closing hours though! What was Camp Snoopy (now it's called.. something else... I can't keep up) was all scary and dead. hehe. Amusement parks are weird when they're closed! Anyway, it was a good time. I didn't take nearly as many pics as I wanted to... At least I got a cute one of a couple that got married a week before us. Since our weddings (though neither of us could attend each other's weddings... imagine that), we've hung out just a couple times and went to Utah together for the marriage retreat. Fun stuff. I wish we could hang out more... but now the husband is being deployed again. Anyway, then Barry continued to have drill this weekend, so I went to church with my parents and hung out with them on Sunday until Barry came to pick me up. We ended up staying for homemade stir fry though. Mmm mmm. Mom and Dad spoil us.

Today is the first Monday without Bekki. :( So sad... at least I have the cool travel mug she gave me. I'll try to make a new normal for Monday, but I don't know if that's possible. *sigh* I miss her!!!

Red toe nail polish! I have real shoes on today, so no one knows except those at the dinner/dance. hehe. I've never done red before. It makes me feel a bit bold.

Doctor on Friday! Only about 2.5 weeks till we know the sex of the baby. That being said, no announcements will be made until we can tell our parents and siblings... one of mine is a little far away and does not have a phone number for me to call and does not have internet access yet. I have to hear about things through his wife right now, which is TOTALLY understandable, but... hopefully I can somehow let him know the sex before we tell anyone else but immediate family. So... I'm thinking that will be hard at work, as some people know I've said I'll know on the 9th.. but no... unless I get ahold of my brother... no. I'll just say, "I'm having a .......................................................... BABY!" yeah. Sure. :)

Happy Monday?

office space?

Sometimes I like to pretend I have an office...

R + B's office is nice to visit... so is A's.. but that one is frigid. Colder than my lack of office. So that means A's is REALLY cold.

Pregnant coworker #4's last day was Friday. I miss her. Pregnant coworker #1 is going home "sick" today and I will miss her tonight. Greatly. I do have pretty awesome coworkers. How much talent is in this place anyway? At one baby shower you can get a knitted shirt or outfit piece... knitted baby washcloths, a knit baby hat and a quilt--all hand made by different people. :) Amazing!

Stuff I'm thankful for today:

a loving savior - my wonderful husband - my baby - hot cocoa - no headaches - having our 2 year anniversary of meeting each other yesterday... :) - fun coworkers - my parents and how they're celebrating 35 years today!!! - my brother and almost sis in law who are getting married in a month and 2 days! - my brother who is far, far away being brave and his amazingly strong wife and their darling puppies - my favorite caribou baristas - individual sized popcorn that I will make after 3 after some more coworkers leave :) - comp time... i just haven't figured out where to fit it all in this week... at least it works for doing this!
