hmmm...let's see..what has transpired that i can really think of.
-celebrated Valentine's day with the hubby. he got up early to pick up breakfast and flowers for me. after church we went to jamba juice and then headed to the couple's mani/pedi he made an appt for :) afterwards for dinner we had churrasco's and it was all so good (well, except for the service but whatevs...i was just glad the food was delish)
-went car-looking again (i say looking b/c i'm not really sure of when we're buying) i'm pretty sure i have my eyes set on the 2010 Chevy Equinox. it's a pretty little thing with some nice bells and whistles. it'll be nice not to worry that my car will die on me in the middle of traffic...my poor honda. she's been a trooper i tell you.
-got my first Copic markers...still trying to get used to using them. i do love how they don't cause paper to pill for sure. Jennifer McGuire had a great post about these the other week that i think i'll have to go back and study again.
-I made a bunch of cards...a set of bday cards...and two more set of greeting cards. good thing i was able to pick up a couple of additional stamp sets that made these last batches of cards more fun.
we've had a couple of baby showers at work...one was for Trisha and Brad who both work at our company. this is one of the shower's that i actually didn't coordinate for work so it was nice to have a little break from my shower throwing duties ;o) i did however make the framed card that everyone signed for them. my dear co-worker Natalie, who is like my right arm at work, made the lovely cake - it was not only so cute it was so delicious! it was a fun shower and i can't wait to meet their baby girl!
-celebrate Andra's 40th bday at the beginning of March. we put together a gift basket as a group that contained all kinds of goodies (gift cards from her favorite places...starbucks, DSW, iTunes, Smoothie King, Target...two bottles of wine, and a set of Tina Park greeting cards) and then Vanessa and I picked up balloons and decorated her entire cube in a non-"over-the-hill" theme...we kept it cute and fresh with sky blue, orange, white and brown. yes...we are good friends like that :) i think she was pretty happy with it all :)
the following day at work, we had an Finance/Accounting team outing that our CFO treated us to. it was a beautiful day and we went to the Aquarium in downtown Houston. good times with good/goofy people...
the next two baby showers i attended then helped with were both for Vanessa. her mom through her one this past weekend - lots of games and i even managed to win one of the games :) here are some pics from Saturday's baby shower...
after Vanessa's shower on Saturday...Andra and I spent the rest of the day hanging out. we headed to Ikea for a bit and then went to see Dear John. Oh. it was good. le sigh.
then this past week Andra and I put together Vanessa's baby shower at work...me thinks V was quite happy with this shower as well - yay! (sorry in advance for the blurry pics...don't know what was wrong with my shaky hands, i guess)
okay - i think i'm pretty caught up now. looking forward to combined house church tonight :)
happy friday to you all!
