Miscellany Monday

mm1.
I had a lovely weekend and cannot believe it came and went so fast. Friday, my dad got an award from the Ag 100 Council as the Agriculturalist of the Year. Pretty exciting. It was nice that our whole family was able to make it. And perhaps the best part was it took place at the ag center {an extension location for UA} in my town. So only a five minute drive and the family came over afterwards to check out the house. My parents have both seen our new place but my siblings hadn't.

Saturday took me to a county meeting for work. I have to tell you the member's home it was at was just wonderful. I of course snapped dozens of photos but my camera is not with me. Their home is an old school house built in 1910 or something and they renovated it about six years ago. It is a perfect ranch house.

Thursday night I saw my most favorite of bands, David Crowder. Unfortunately, he didn't come on until 9pm so Shamarie and I had to call it quits at 10pm since we had 40 minutes and an hour {for her} to get home...he was as always amazing and super impressive.
The nursery is getting stacked and piled with baby books and potential decorating items. Fortunately, for my little cowboy I already owned a bit of cowboy decor so now it's just picking and choosing of what I have to put up and around. I don't want to hang anything yet until I have the furniture so potential finished room pictures you probably won't see until I'm 38 weeks along...
Branding irons, hooks, photos of my hubby from HS :)

More photos/art, books - lots of them. New ones and old ones.

After church and breakfast with my hubby I finally hung some more items around the house. I'm starting to feel like it's kindasorta complete. But I know it's really a work in progress. In the afternoon I met up with my sister to see The Help. Great movie, I highly recommend it. I was going to try and read the book first but that didn't happen. Speaking of books while in Ohio the other weekend I read the Lone Survivor by Marcus Luttrell I HIGHLY recommend you read this. I'm telling you life changing people. I already had a great respect for our military but this has taken it to an entirely different level. Read it. Seriously.

After a couple weeks of my baby being the size of a papaya apparently now he is the size of an eggplant. Which is super appropriate since I'm making my favorite eggplant and lamb dish tonight!

I tried to put Carissa's box up to link to her but it's giving me fits...so anyway go link up with Carissa at Lowercase Letters!

Love what you've collected for little man's room so far! We're taking our house off the market, so it's nice to get to enjoy where we're at, I know that feeling! Love David Crowder, too. Bet that was a good concert!

I LOVE your nursery stash. There is nothing more fun than the first time you'll wash all the teensy clothes, too.

Congrats to your family on the award your Dad won. I bet it makes you burst with pride.

Thinking of you and hoping for good health for you and your baby. Your baby is lucky to have such a great Mom!
