Care Bear and Rainbow Day

Well, this week is Winter Break at my school. This is when all the kids go skiing and the broke teachers get to sleep in and play all day! Yesterday was one of those care bear days (a name I call a perfect day). It started with sleeping in until 7 (that is way late considering my usual time is 4:45). Then, I went to my moms house and dropped off Bean for a playdate with Maggie! After that, I went to my friend Mary's house and we went on a 20 mile leisure bike ride. After the bike ride, we went to the Y (with all the stay at home moms) and did a nice little weight work out. After that, we went to Dandelions (one of our favorite vegetarian restaurants downtown). After a nice lunch outside, we started our journey to Mall at Milena. Oh how I LOVE the mall and now I love it even more when it is 2 on a "school day!" I felt so special because I got to help Mary pick out a gift for her daughter's 21st birthday. Kelsey is going to love the present!!! Did I mention how much i love Tiffany's? I am trying to figure out how I can earn some extra cash and get me a new piece of jewelry...hmmm....

After the mall, I visited my grandma at the rehab place and then I went home, changed and headed to my sis's house for dinner and play time with my niece and nephew...man am I going to miss them next month :(

What at Care Bear Day...
1. bike ride
2. Y during the day

All and All I think it was one of the best days!!!

Super Bowl Fun

So I know this post is a little late but I was waiting on pictures. Sunday night I went with my mom, my sister and her family to watch the super bowl. The theme of the party was "favorite jersey!" Well, since I am not really a pro-football fan, I wore my favorite team...Miami!!! Looks like I had fellow hurricanes at the party with me. Of course the number one fan is future
Miami Cheerleader, Olivia Rush!!!

Isn't she so cute.
Of course the night was bitter sweet. I had a great time at my sister's neighbors house but at the same time I was so sad to think that in less than a month my sister and her family (including my little man, Luke) will be moving to Atlanta!!! I know I know...what a cool place to live, so great for young families, wonderful churches, season changes...and the list continues. But for me, it is like half of me moving away. I have always been near my sister. We grew up together, roomed together in college, same sorority, running buddies, shopaholics...you name it, we do it together. This comes as a HUGE surprise to everyone. However, I hold on to the promise that God has a plan and I know I have to TRUST God with this. That is my saving grace!!! Anyways....overall we had a great time!! Thank you to the Adams for having us over.
