Goals

We've been working hard all weekend, trying to empty out our storage unit and we are about 75% done! Most of it is sitting in our garage though, waiting for a temporarily permanent (if that makes sense) home. We will be moving in February 2009 to a newer and nicer apartment complex and we are trying to consolidate our things.

Another personal goal of mine, rather Sassy Bows Boutique, is hitting 100 sales by January 1st, 2009. I'm at 73, so not too far to go!

Off topic, Brynn is sick today. Dan is taking her to the doctor today as she has been complaining of an earache, and she's been sneezing and coughing for over a week now. I am headed to Arvada soon for my Sissy's surgery and to keep David company.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Birthday Girl

I had a really great 29th birthday! It started off on Wednesday when I got my Raspberry Lemonade cupcakes from Kelli's Cupcakes, which were amazing! Today I went to work, like any normal day. Then for dinner we met my sister and her hubby at Casa Bonita! We had such a good time and Brynn could not stop watching the divers...she barely ate any of her food! My Sissy (that's what I call her) :) made me some cupcake tea towels, some wash clothes, and she got me a cupcake apron! Brynn went home with Sissy and Uncle D and she will stay with them for 2 nights!!! That means a nice break for Mommy and Daddy. Thanks Uncle D and Sissy!

Estes Park

This past Sunday we took a day trip to Estes Park. We had a bit of a late start, but made it up there by noon or so. We went to our favorite Mexican restaurant, Casa Grande, and it was great! We walked around for a bit, but it was so crowded that I didn't really want to go into any shops. We walked along the river and admired all the changing colors. Brynn enjoyed saying hi to all of the "puppies" that passed her by. :) We drove back to Aurora and stopped by Nick's Nursery to get some small pumpkins for the apartment. They were still putting out all of their Halloween stuff, but couldn't resist a picture with one of the displays they had!

Just like Grandma's

My Grandma Nunn makes the best Au Gratin potatoes and I've always wanted to try and re-create them. A couple of Sundays ago (yes I'm a bit behind on loading pictures) I attempted a recipe I found online and THEY WERE AMAZING!!!! I must say that they tasted just like Grandma Nunn's!

It's Over

The busy weekend is over. Brynn's soccer game went great and she seems to be getting it more and more each practice and game. Gabby's vet appt went well, especially since the vet is a mobile vet and he comes right to your house and the prices are reasonable!! My Pampered Chef party was so much fun and it was nice having an evening with all the girls and catching up. Thanks to all the ladies who came! And last but not least, my volunteering at Your Kids Closet Consignment sale! I was there for 4 hours this morning hanging up and organizing clothes and boy did that time go by fast! I did get some great deals on stuff for Brynn including, snow shoes, a snow suit, some clothes, and a toy shopping cart which she loves!! I came home and didn't want to do anything as I was so tired! So I spent the rest of the day picking up the house, doing laundry, and lounging on the couch. Back to another work week! Hope everyone had a great weekend!
