Talkative Tuesday

I am back!

We have had a busy week or so and I will fill you in here!

T-Ball started - you would never know it from this picture but Abby actually cried the first two innings of the game....go figure.

Check out more photos of Abby and her watergirl sister here:

I have entered a couple auctions on Facebook. I have been doing  packs of cards and notebooks like the one below.  I love notebooks as I am an avid list maker and I write all things down.

Nick and I went on an Army Strong Bonds Marriage Retreat at Myrtle Beach with the kids. It was great - or at least I thought! My language is Words of Affirmation.  Nick's is a tie between Quality Time and Acts of Service. I have been doing my homework and am working on "speaking" his language - lets see how he does too.... :)  I highly recommend this to newly weds - I think it would be a great tool to have from the beginning.

I also had my first visit with a doctor about my anxiety issues that have come about in the last 6 months or so.  She gave me some homework and tasks to complete (or not in some cases) and I am excited to work on this and get it fixed!!

Easter

Yes - Pantyhose and flip flops...like she would ever wear real shoes...

Yes - I even got Nick to go to Sunrise Service!
