YAY!!

Well today is a YAY day for several reasons. First, I found out yesterday that I'm going to be an Aunt in April (yes Elizabeth)! YAAAAAY!...this gives me so much joy! I can't wait to have a little neice or nephew to cuddle and spoil, as well as a playmate for my kids. What fun! I get so excited just thinking about it. :)

The second reason today is a YAY day is because I went and had highlights and lowlights put in my hair for FREE from Melissa at Toni&Guy at the mall. My hair turned out perfect and I'm super pleased!! I found out about this opportunity on Craigslist because she was needing a model in order to fulfill all of her advanced education training. Plus a friend of mine watched my 2 boys for me so I could go get pampered. Thanks Amanda! It's been a great day and God has really poured out his blessings on me today! :) Here are some pics of the hair transformation (click on them for a larger version of pic)-

I love your highlights!! They look great! I am so in desperate need of updating mine and I think I might check on craigslist as well. Thanks for asking about teaching. It is going well. I am learning so much about these kiddoes. They are tons of fun and tons of stress at times but the Lord is taking me through it all. I know I cannot change my students but I can make some kind of impact. More importantly I am being faithful to God in this job. How are you doing?

Old Navy Coupon!!

Wahoo...I don't know if I've ever been more excited about a coupon before! Lately, I've been following a lot of neat money-saving blogs to see if I could cut our grocery budget down from about $1,000 a month and I'm proud to say that I've done that this month and cut it down to $400...more than HALF! That's partially why I haven't posted blogs in a while because this definitely keeps me busy, but I guess is well worth it! I use to just clip a few coupons, head to the store, and be so excited when I'd save $15-20 in one trip. (If you're interested in knowing the money-saving blogs I follow, let me know and I'll forward them to you!) Anyways, OldNavyWeekly.com hides several coupons on there each week (usually reloads on Thursdays) and a big coupon on there is $75 off $100 purchase. I tried last week to get it and even stayed up til 2 a.m. trying, but no luck (I really enjoy the challenge:). Last night, I tried at 8 p.m. and found they reloaded...

Joseph, Mary, and Baby Jesus...Contemporary style

Yesterday I went to the store for a few things and ended up buying a Nativity set and displayed it in the house. Of course, it wasn't long before the kids found it and started playing with the pieces. Matthew ran around saying "Baby Jesus!...I love you baby Jesus!" and then Katherine wanted to pretend that Christopher was baby Jesus. So a few towels, headbands, and bathrobes later, this is the outcome:) Katherine praying over her newly born baby Jesus- Katherine and baby Jesus so excited and filled with joy- Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus in the stable (yes, with a Christmas tree in the background)- Luke 2:14 "And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth."

A Little Bit of Christmas...

I've had a lot of fun this year decorating for Christmas! Last year we really didn't decorate since we had just moved into our house and weren't even in town long enough to enjoy it. Plus in years past, we've had a 4 foot Christmas tree that was "child-proof". Well this year our tree is definitely not child proof but I guess we took the risk. It's been great watching the kid's faces every morning looking at the tree and turning on the lights and train underneath it. We also figured out that the train calms Christopher down and sometimes puts him to sleep! Last night he was really fussy and after a while we weren't sure what to do. So we just sat down in front of the tree and turned the train on for Matt, and Christopher just watched it go around and round for a while and stopped crying! We'll have to try that again!...maybe we should keep the train out year round! :) Daniel was in the Christmas spirit last night and decided to wrap two presents...
