Weekend at Home...sort of

This was the first weekend in 3 weeks that we were staying home. We enjoy going to visit family and friends, but it's always nice when we get to stay home! Our to-do-list had been growing all week and we were sure we would get it all done this weekend. We still had Christmas boxes in our house! So Friday after work, I got a phone call from my parents wanting to take us out to dinner. We tried the new Genghis Grill close to us and it was wonderful! It's such a neat place to eat because you get to create your meal from raw meats, veggies, seasoning and much more. Then they cook it in front of you! It's delicious! So mom and dad enjoyed seeing Camille (and Clayton and I).

Saturday I was a hostess for my good friend, Erica's, baby shower. It turned out great and she got lots of great things for her baby Earl! Clayton was planning on babysitting all day, but that morning I decided I wanted her to go with me, so she did. I was so glad I did because Clayton got almost all of our to-do-list completed while I was gone. I came home to a clean and organized home. He's so good at cleaning. I was a little nervous about him taking my boxes out to storage because he's been known to "STUFF" things, but he didn't this time. That night I cooked a nice meal (which I don't do very often anymore) and we enjoyed resting at home.

Tonight we had our 2nd Annual Sweetheart Banquet at church. It was for couples 45 and older at church. Our class and the youth group served them and it was very fancy. We have a chef in our class that cooked prime rib, green beans and mashed potatoes. We got the leftovers and it was delicious! They then played the Not-So-Newlywed Game and it was hilarious! It was sweet to see so many couples that have been married for so many years. That is becoming more and more rare in our world around us.

Clayton and I do not have any Valentine plans yet...any suggestions for the tight budget and a 3 month old baby?

Update on my job: Friday was horrible, but I have an interview tomorrow for a permenant sub position. I would love to take this position, but will loose some money with daycare. Does anyone know of someone who does or would like to watch Camille for almost 3 months in Keller? Please continue to pray about that.
