I wore maternity jeans for the first time on Saturday. It was heavenly. I can still button my other jeans thank you very much... they are just entirely too uncomfortable. Mom was gracious to get me a pair for my birthday...
Which by the way is this Friday. I'll be 24. I think I feel like an adult now. More so than when I turned 23.
Mom and I went shopping this past Friday for the mentioned jeans... and stopped by the thrift store. I finally got a bread maker y'all. My gracious mother was also responsible for this gift. I was so excited. I have wanted one for forever, because I know that I'll actually use mine. Or at least that's the plan. I was going to register for one before we got married... BUT I refrained for I hardly knew how to crack an egg and scramble it at the time... much less MAKE BREAD. HA. But now... I can't WAIT to buy the supplies and have it humming away in my kitchen. Delightful! My 20-30 pregnancy pounds might come quickly.
We have a VERY busy week ahead. Is there any such thing as "slowing down" to enjoy the Holidays? I imagine that everyone is just as busy as we are. Tonight is our only free night. I'm going to make chili and jalapeno cornbread for supper... and yes... I imagine that it will be very yummy!! Its about 25 degrees outside right now. And I wish I was still cuddled under the covers. Tomorrow, we are caroling at a nursing home. Wednesday is Pursuit (our 18-24 group at church), Thursday, Tyler and I are singing at a restaurant (Southern Velle). It actually will be really fun. The owners of the restaurant are believers and members of a church that are doing a really neat thing this season for several low income families in town. So in support of their amazing ministry and hopefully to help raise some funds... Ty and I are going to sing our hearts out! If you live in town, you should come!! We'll be there from 7-9PM. They have really amazing food! Friday, as previously stated, is my birthday... so we'll be celebrating. I love birthdays!! Saturday is something... I just can't remember what! And Sunday is well... Sunday.
So I know that you were all so excited to hear about our schedule this week. Thrilling I know.
This past Saturday night, Tyler and I went to "Imagine Christmas" at our church. It was really good. There was a part in the production where several children come out on stage in these adorable outfits and start quoting scripture. Tyler and I both teared up and cried. And what was hilarious to us, was that it was not meant to be a sad or moving at all. I'm glad we were sitting towards the back. Hormones? I heard that might happen :). I have the best husband EVER. He's so sweet to me. I mean seriously. I might cry right now. I'm tearing up!!
Well that's all for now. I hope you are all having a wonderful time getting ready for Christmas. Such a fun time of year. It will be over all too soon!!
Love you all!
