Highlights of my week

1. Well, this was a super busy week so it wasn't perfect but I'm back on the eating better train and it feels good. Nothing drastic just small tweaks that will hopefully make a bigger difference in the long run. I have to do something that I can do for the rest of my life and not just for a few months so it'll take time and I've succumbed  myself to that fact.

2. HAVING MONDAY OFF WORK!!! WOOT I got to take Blake and Ava to see Hop, which was cute, and I don't get to spend a lot of time w/them so that was cool.

3. Tuesday night we went on a double date with Greg and Hannah. Tuesdays' you get a movie AND popcorn for $6 so we decided to take advantage. :) We ate at Buffalo Wild Wings  and went to see Scream 4....stupid, stupid, stupid. Nothings' changed since the other 3 movies so although parts of it def scared me, I say DON'T SEE IT! I love scary movies but this one has run it's course and then some! lol

4. THE ROYAL WEDDING!! How awesome and intriguing to watch how the royals do it. from Kate's beautifully simple and elegant dress to the TWO kisses on the balcony, and all the hats in between! haha Wow, it was so cool to see not so much the outfits as those HATS! Watching this spurred me to want to have a royalty party with a throwback to old Hollywood style for a little glitz and glamor, seeing as how the royal family doesn't do that but keep it more elegant and plain dare I say? I think this would be a super fun party so if it happens I will def post pics. ;-D

5. On Friday I got to leave Old Navy an hour early so I came home, put my zebra snuggie on :) and checked the mail. I got a receipt saying we only have 2 more car payments left for my car and I was  ecstatic!!!!! So I called Eric and he was so excited that he couldn't concentrate on work anymore and came home. haha (It was 4:45, but he usually works til 5:30-6:30). We've been really trying to stick to our budget so when something gets paid off we are so stoked and it gives us new hope for the future :D
Neither of us are great with money and although both of us prayed we'd find that in our spouse, it was not to be. :( BUT we have found that when we're on the same page we can get 'er done!  I'm sad that those words just came out of my mouth. lol

6. Friday Night = Date Night!! We wanted to celebrate and also just spend a night out together so we went to Olive Garden since we had a gift card, and then went to Cakes On Walnut. Its this cute cupcake place in Chambana that serves cool ice cream flavors and drinks as well. We like watching Cupcake Wars and I just love cupcakes, they're so cute and perfectly put together. Adorable. I had the lemon cupcake w/lemon frosting and sugary lemon zest on top and Eric had the dark chocolate w/ choc frosting w/ filling. Mine was def better as we shared. It was so fun to sit there together and talk about anything and everything. Sometimes at home we can sit side by side on the computer, phone, watching tv etc...and never say a word so it's really nice to spend QUALITY time together. We both had a great time;)www.cakesonwalnut.com
