Ooh, More Posting!!

I forgot one huge event when I posted the other: my baby sister got engaged!! she got engaged on Valentines Day. awwwwwww. they are getting married on May 15th. I know thats kinda soon, but thats just how we roll in this family. my cousin Ames is her maid of honor, and Ames and I are throwing her a bridal shower. and not just any bridal shower... a naughty one. *evil grin*

also, I mentioned that Sweetheart is in school right now. because he is gone all day long, I get to be a housewife. I stay at home and clean and cook. its awesome!! I gotta say, to all of you who get to stay at home and tend to your house, you are very, VERY blessed. I have taken this time to exercise, play with my puppy (did I mention that Sweetheart got me a puppy for Valentines?), and learn new recipes. I love having dinner all ready and served when Sweetheart walks in the door. he is gone so long that he is STARVING when he gets home, so everything that I cook is gobbled up and raved about. =) Ive really pushed myself to make new entrees and sides, and I am really proud of how much I have learned and grown as a cook.

I got a copy of Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred, so Sweetheart and I plan to start that now. actually, he started yesterday, but I had an attack of terrible cramps, so I laid on the couch covered with a blanket and critiqued his form. it was fun! I have put an effort into saving money and eating healthier, so hopefully a healthier, happier Pixie will be greeting you in the future!!
