Hope everyone had a nice Valentines Day!
Since i'm only just now getting around to posting about it, I'll just tell you about my Valentines Day. Actually i celebrated my actual 'Valentines Day' on Tuesday, since i had to work Thursday,Feb.14th.
A lady we know puts on a lunch for widows on or around Valentines Day and me and my sisters alway go and help her put it on every year.It is usually really nice and alot of ladies show up for it and its just really nice. This year there were about 15 ladies that came, some of them i knew from other years when they have come. There were about 6 of us girls this year who serve the lunch to the ladies, and basicly what we do is cater the entire 5 course meal, searving each course,(salad,bread,dessert,etc) and then sitting at a different table each course and visit with the widows at each table. So anyways it was really nice this year. I sat with my friend Kelsie for the first part of the lucheon and then Hannah and Kelsie when we sat at a table with the ladies. Then we did this thing where we each read a part about what makes a Valentine special and a bible verse that went with it. Then each of the widows talked about their husbands and wedding and it was nice.
Then we cleaned everything up and washed up the dishes after they left, then we went home. No, actually we went to walmart while mom did her shopping then we went home.
I forgot what i did after i got home. Oh well...
So anyways that was how my V-day went which actually wasn't on the 14th, it was the 21st.
I hope you had a great Valentines, however you spent it.
I have to go get somethin ordered so i'll let cha go. later gater!

my week...so far
Good glory,life has been such a drain lately. Everyone is so busy running around doing this or that. heres what i've been up to the last few days.
Saturday i went sleding,yes i did,and nearly FROZE! it was a blast tho, Dad,me,colt,bret,titus,seth,levi and becca,all went. the snow was just a bit slushy due to the sun melting it a little, but there was enough for sledding. the hill we go on is sooo steep it is downright dangerous! my bones are still screaming there protest at me when ever i bend over, and honestly i'm not one to be a wimp at physical activity but crashing over a hill more off the dang sled than on gave me my share of bumps and bruises. ok, moving on. sunday was up before 5am, fed the animals and was out of the house by 8:40 somthing for church, which of course automaticaly makes us late. we drive 50 miles to church every sunday, with the service starting at 9:30. well we always have to stop for gas on the way there which took about 10 minutes. so we walk in to church just as its starting, find a pew and get seated. The sermon was really good, it was about Job, when all these bad things happen to him, then when his wife tells him to just curse God and die, and he doesn't do it. I was going to go home and read the rest of the story but i didn't get a chance to. I'll probably do it tonight before bed.
We had to leave right after church ended so we could get home, eat lunch, so mom, Emilee, and Becca could go to somthing at 2. I didn't want to go, so that left me home with dad and my brothers, and the superbowl.fun....not. we only get in one channel on tv most of the time so dad and Colt spent the afternoon trying to get the channel to work for the superbowl. they finally got it to come in, with some time to spare before it came on. football isn't really my thing so i didn't really care. i slept on the couch listing to them talk wires and cables and antena and all that stuff. They only watched a little bit of the superbowl anyways. then i watched a jane Austin movie that was on called 'Jane Austin Regrets'. it was ok, not my favorate, but it was ok. Pride and Prejuduce is on next week. yesterday, monday, it was a whoppin' 70 degrees out! whooo-hooo! that felt nice, let me tell ya! after lunch i attepted to take my usual afternoon walk but it was SoO muddy my feet felt like led weights afteri was only a little ways, so me and my sista went to town. we parked at the fairgrounds and let the dogs out, we walked from the fairgrounds to the hardware store across town and back again. then we walked all the way around the perimiter of the fairgrounds. it was like 2 and a half hours of walking which was pretty nice. i don't get to walk in town all that often so it was nice. i like to walk. the dogs were super hyper and beeing typical country dogs they had to sniff (and scratch) everything and everyone they passed on the sidewalk, then you get a ton of people who are driving down the road and stare at the 2 huge hyper golden retriever dogs walking (or maybe they were walking us-idk:) down the sidewalk. fun fun!
today, tuesday, it has rained like crazy all day. it stopped now and the sun is coming tru some dark rain clouds (that would make an awsome picture) and the air smells so clean and fresh after the rain. i think i'll brave the mud when i'm done here and go walk or run or ride or...something.
Tomarra one of moms friends is coming over for the morning to do,i dont really know whatever moms like to do.
Thursday, we go meet a plane in St. Louis and pick up my grama who's flying in from Colorado. Yay! we havn't seen her or grampa for over a year when we last went out to visit them. we only get to see grama tho, grampa is staying in CO cause of work.
Friday,my aunt, uncle and cousins are coming over, 1 of those cousins o have only seen once in all her short little life. David is the oldest, then Steph,Sarah and Hannah. they will stay for moms and the twins baby-shower Saturday and leave on Sunday. so we'll only have 1 day to see them. My grama will be here until Tuesday before she has to catch her flight back home to Colorado.
Saturday, i have to get up sorta early and get ready for the shower, and leave here by 10:30am. have a lunch deal at the church, see some friends, and then come back home.
Then...well Sunday again, and that's my week.
I am seriosly getting a crink in my neck so i'll let you go back to whatever you were doing. This has probably been a most boring waste of your time so until next time....ADIOS!
