It's been awhile..

Sorry about that! Things here got a little CRAZY! But don't worry, I have pictures and all to share. :)

Let's see.. where to start. I guess 

Friday: 

It was the BYU VS. Middle Tennessee State game. They won! Yippee! Needless to say.. I had one happy hubby ha ha! We found the best way to watch it.. plug in our laptop into the projector sit back and relax! :) It's very enjoyable. I used to not really care about football.. it was just BLAH and I didn't give a care ha ha. But then things changed.. I started dating my now husband and he got me into football. So yeah, I'm a BYU fan now. Which shocks a lot of people. And some people think I'm "pretending" to make my husband happy but, the truth is.. I'm not. I enjoy football and I actually get into it now. Wazoo! So I was actually also happy when BYU won! They did pretty freaking good. A good come back from losing to Utah. GROSS. ;) 

Saturday:

I am deathly allergic to Pineapple.. and on Saturday my mother and I went to a dinner get-together before the Relief society Broadcast.. and well, yeah I ate this oh so yummy pasta but a downside, it had pineapple in it and I had no idea! They had stuffed the noodles with one. I looked at my mom and was all, "I feel funny.." looked down on my fork and luckily a piece of pineapple had fallen out. WHOOPS! I then shortly realized I didn't have my medicine, so I swelled up ha.. and got rashes and was coughing like crazy! NOT FUN! So we raced to my moms got some medicine and went back. Let's just say, I was having a hard time staying awake. The next day...

Sunday:

I felt the affects of eating a crap load of pineapple. My body was so sore, I was exhausted and I did NOT want to get out of bed. Side note: Normally when my husband moves, wakes up or anything I wake up. I am a VERY light sleeper! Anywho, when he got up to get ready for church, I didn't budge. I was sound asleep. He I guess even kissed me and I didn't do anything. So hey one way to know that I feel like CRAP and I really am sick. After a blessing, some chicken noodle soup and lots and lots of love from my oh so caring husband I started to slowly feel a lot better. Which was nice. I do not like being sick AT ALL!.

Monday:

It was laundry day! (My dryer broke last week.. so basically I had two weeks of laundry to do!) Not very fun. ha ha! But it is all done now! Thank goodness! I spent most of Monday cleaning! I cleaned all the rooms so my house looked all sparkly.. and lovely. ha! But I later went to my FAVORITE store Target with my mommy! I got some free shaving cream for the hubby and an awesome deal on Pledge. I'm getting a lot better at this whole coupon thing. ;) I got $10 worth of stuff for $2.09! Go me! I felt pretty proud I must say. ha ha! Later my husband and I went somewhere.. I don't remember where (SORRY!) But, I snapped this picture with my phone because the sunset was absolutely gorgeous! And I felt like I should share it!

Tuesday: 

I took my dad shopping to Wal-mart. (Not my favorite place to shop..) But, it was double coupon day and they needed some food. My heart broke when we walked down the cereal isle and I saw this sign, "Due to the Government shut down,.. ect" All those poor babies and mommies and families. All I have to say is DAMN government. Sorry for the langue but ya know.. it's pathetic. 

Wednesday:

Was date night! It has been such a long time since the hubs and I have had time to our selves. It was lovely to catch up and enjoy each others company! We went to Chili's where our waiter was AMAZING! Seriously the best waiter I have ever had! And on top of the awesome service the food was cheap and so deli-sh! Yum, my tummy was very happy! After Chili's we went bowling. Eh, I'm not a pro bowler but I did get a strike! Go me! ;) I got a score of 74 (typical) and the hubs got like 100 and something ha ha! Yeah, he totally kicked my trash! As we were walking out of the bowling alley this lady stopped us and asked for a ride.. I won't lie I was nervous but we went ahead and gave her and her boyfriend a ride. They were so sweet and they talked to us a lot which was nice! And when we got to their apartment the lady said, "God bless you, you are life savers.. thank you, thank you so much. You will be in my prayers." The man shook my husbands hand and said thank you. So it started out sketchy and I was nervous but ended in fuzzy fluffy feelings! It felt good to help some people out. :) 

Today:

I got this lovely email first thing in the morning! I was pretty excited! I love getting freebies and winning things.. (the winning things part doesn't happen that often ha ha!) But It's a great feeling. If you're on Facebook you should look up Budget Savvy Diva! She's AWESOME! I'll post the link to her Facebook & her blog! I'm obsessed. She post amazing deals and freebies! Here's the links! Facebook & Website Trust me worth your time to swing by and take a look!
