New Coffee Maker!

It's a 3-in-1! Boasting Cappucinos, Espressos and just plain ole' coffee, I'm excited for the addition to our kitchen. :) And as only a girl would understand, I'm excited that it matches too! (the old white one didn't match so well...) Here's to hoping it makes wonderful coffee... Come visit us and we'll brew you a cup - on the house! (well, Peter will, I can't ever seem to make it quite drinkable) On an angle... :-)
My Aunt Renee called me up yesterday about 11:15ish, and said "I'm 75 miles away from your work, wanna have lunch!?" So, that we did! She was on her way West to Portland to pick up Cori and they were going to have a 'girls week' at the coast, then they'll head back to Boise... so maybe we'll see them again on their way back through?

Nothing much going on now in our parts... We had a lazy weekend, just doing some housework and enjoying eachothers company! Peter's nephew Daniel is in town for awhile, so he stops by every now-and-again and graces us with his presence (which is always nice to have). :) He and Peter have been working out on Peters weight set...
Daniel really enjoys his work out... Or maybe he's just smiling for the camera?
As for Peter, he was called in to work @ 10:00 last night, and didn't get home until 2:00am this morning, so he's exhausted... :-(

I'll let this be all for now... 'til the next big news in our life!

It's about time...

...for a new post, and an update on our little life.
We enjoyed having the workers Tues-Sun... they really spoil us around here! That is one very special thing about having few friends in our area, we get to see and have our workers much more often.
We woke up to some visiting deer on Saturday! Kind of strange, I'm not sure what they were doing so far into town, but they were sure enjoying the neighbor's freshly tilled garden!SPRING! It's tulip season! My favorite!Wednesday is my final for accounting, yuck. I'll be glad to be done with that class! Managerial accounting is next in line. I'm glad that they are at least online!
I think that's about all in our corner. Oh, the coffee pot gave up the ghost - tradgedy!!

He's HOME!

The title says it all! The longest two weeks ever are over, Peter's home! :-)
Thanks Mom and Dellas for coming to keep me company!!!!
We're thoroughly enjoying our weather... it's been so beautiful; yesterday it was almost 70! I had almost forgotten what those digits looked like.
After gospel meeting yesterday, (we have an early 3:00 meeting) we took the motorcycles out for a spin. That was our first ride this season. We rode for a couple hours, but I had to switch over to reserve so we headed back home. So fun though, and PERFECT weather for riding! I'm so glad it's starting to warm up!

Below are a few more pictures of last week.
I just like this one, no particular reason...Mom got one of the posterboy. Still no picture of his face though... I find it interesting, he uses his mouth quite often, actually VERY often, yet when it comes to pictures he's never willing to show it... hmm. Gotta love the cheeks... That's about it... this is my last "homework week" for my accounting class... Next Wednesday will be our final. I'll be glad to be done with it, only to start the next one though: Managerial accounting. Also in addition to managerial accounting I'll be starting my 7 month certification program... I think I may be a bookworm for the first time in my life these next few months!
Hope y'all have a fantabulous week!

Quick Post

I should be studying and doing homework, but alas, posting pictures is so much more fun.
Mom showed up on Friday, Dellas showed up tonight, Tuesday.
DISCLAIMER: Dellas doesn't like pictures. I will do my best to get one of his face while he's here. Meanwhile, you'll have to deal with not-so-flattering ones of his hands.
Here they're playing Yahtzee. Maybe Dellas is trying to show off his magic rolling hand? (he rolled two Yahtzees...)Look at that... I mean, you don't find hands like that anymore. (he's on his way over to push me off my chair. ha. he thinks that'll stop me!)My Mom is pretty. She bought daffodils today. They're pretty too...Ok, homework time.
2 1/2 more days until Peter comes home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thursday night supper

I ran 5 1/4 miles tonight, so in honor of my newfound health-kick, I thought I'd eat some greens for dinner! Yum-o. Turned out so good, and it was totally healthy aside from the whopping tablespoon of butter... (sheepish grin) Oh, and the cheese... :-)

Fresh Parmesan +Fresh Brussel Sprouts =
Yummy dinner!
My Gram Clark bought me these darling candles a LONG time ago, and I'm just getting around to burning them, but they smell SO good! There are 5 different scents, all different coffee flavors... Oh so good. The house smells like a Starbucks now... YUM. Dinner by candlelight!I must get to some homework... 8 more days until Peter comes home! At least it's not double digits now...
