Last Week's Favorites;D

Life has been extremely stressful lately. With everything going on, it can be hard to focus on the positive and be thankful for all the blessings. So I'll focus on the positives in this post:D

1) Dutch Blitz! Kristen and AJ taught us this game and we LOVE it. It's a pretty cheap game too, so of course we bought it. It's not as fun with just 2 people, but it's a blast with more than 2! Highly recommend this game.

2) Perfect Tortilla shells- John isnt one for infomercials or the products on them, but we both kind of really wanted this. We had an Amazon order that we place last week and he snuck this into the order for me:D Made my day! haha. So we had taco salad bowls for dinner this past week. YUMMY! :D If you get these- they do shrink some, so I would get the bigger shells- I used 10 inch shells and they were fine, but small. 

3) Cheddar Chicken Bacon Ranch Pasta, Garlic- Almond green beans, Butter Pecan Sweet Potatoes- Um. YUM. Seriously, everything about this meal was amazing. The pasta is a weight watchers recipe- so it wasnt TOO bad. The green beans and sweet potatoes werent too bad either! I decided to make John a nice meal one night he had off as a thanks for being so awesome to me all the time. I really did luck out with him :D 

4) Favors and Decorations- my sister's shower is next weekend and I went and got all the supplies for the decorations and favors- I'm super excited to make them! I'll post the stuff here when I'm done! :D

 

5) Walking Dead- I LOVE that it's back on!

6) Sushi w/ Jennie and Jordyn- Friday night John had a guys night so I went to get sushi with Jennie and Jordyn. I havnt seen them since we moved back and it was great to catch up. It's amazing how big Jordyn has gotten!! She is such a big girl now and so very sweet. I look forward to spending more time with them :D 

7) Organized!- I'm getting there! It's definitely a work in progress in our apartment. But I've started :D I've had piles of papers laying around the apartment for weeks that needed to be filed. So I busted out my life binder (I named it this- it has all of our important documents in it from car information to health insurance to our passports. Pretty much our life. haha) and organized and filed the documents that needed to be filed. I also created a section for the Mustang and the accident. Then I created another binder with our current bills, meal ideas, and budget. I felt super organized after this! 

8) Carter's Eye-Carter The thing above Carter's eye started to come off. He was scratching it and then John helped him and what looked like a scab to us came off. So we took him by the vet and took the pieces too. She ended up saying its not a big deal and gave us some medicine to give him. $100 dollars later and fighting to not pay the exam fee again, we left. I'm so glad he doesn't have to have surgery, but these prices are crazy. We need to find a new vet. I really like the vet, shes super nice, but TOO expensive! (I mean $45 to look under a microscope for a second is ridiculous). 

Anyway, I know this is a bunch of days late, but have a great week!
