Thursday Tidbits...

...so I have lots of things to post today. First off, last night I met four of my college friends for dinner at Tony's on Main Street in St. Charles. Not too bad...go figure, I ordered the White Chicken Nachos (I just LOVE Mexican food) and OMG those things were SPICY!!! I drank so much water trying to cool my mouth that I could have floated home!!! It was good to catch up with them as so much is changing in all of our lives. I wish we could get together more often. We left deciding that we're going to try to find a Trivia Night to attend so our guys can all meet so if anyone knows of one coming up....let me know!!!

I got there before everyone and their was a German band playing and the street was closed down for people to dance in the streets. It was good entertainment until my girls arrived.
I picked up my plate from the Painted Pot and here it is!

I am pretty thrilled with how it turned out! I hope Kasey and Garrett like it.
Other tidbits:
*I swam a little over a quarter of a mile today! At work they have a Mileage Club so my goal is to try to swim 10 miles by the end of the year. I'll keep you updated on my progress. I feel really tired which is good because I hate working out and then you don't sweat or feel like you worked out at all.
*Matt and I are going to start the Hundred Push-Up Challenge next week. Tonight we have to do our intial test to see how many we can do. I'm kind of excited about it, I made a tracking sheet and everything (Matt thinks I'm a big dork!).
*I have decided to start printing all my pictures off starting in 2007 (when Matt and I started dating)because I started thinking and what if something were to happen to me....would my kids or family know my password to get pics out of Kodak? What if I don't print out any pics and then I die and then there are no pictures of me in print!?! So I'm slowly printing them all off (waiting for deals to print some). So far I have all of 2007 done and then a little bit of 2009.
*I printed off the majority of our honeymoon pictures and bought a photo album for them so that is what I will be working on tonight plus finishing gift tags for the craft show my mom and I are doing the first weekend of November.
*I'm excited because this weekend I get my husband all to myself and it's our anniversary!!! Well, kind of to myself, Saturday, we're going to a wedding but then Sunday-just him and me! We're going to go to church Sunday morning (we haven't gone since spring because he's worked EVERY weekend or we've been out of town)then to yummy dinner at the Melting Pot that evening then we both took Monday off work to just hang out and chill together! This time last year, I was off work for a week and a half...how nice!

Happy Anniversary!

Also, Kodak often has KILLER deals on picture printing. I once got 1000 prints for $10!

I need to do this too--especially for all our wedding pictures!

Yum, those sound delish! I loved St. Charles when I was there with my mom this summer. I'll have to plan a trip back to eat there.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
