February was busy, but great!

Saturday, February 4, 2012

This morning we had a Baptism Class at our church. Everyone that wishes to have their child baptized at our church is required to take this class. Wayne usually works Saturday mornings, but he got the clearance to go in late, so we could both attend.

Hailey's baptism is set for Sunday, April 22nd. Yay!

Sunday, February 5, 2012

Tonight we hosted a Superbowl Party! I think in future years if it is a team that I really like or a game I actually want to watch then we won't be having a party. I always forget how much work it is. A LOT, and we didn't even have that many people over. I had spent the day cleaning my house and making food.

Photobucket

I made burgers with all the fixings, taco salad, BQQ meatballs, chip dip/chips and then a chocolate fondue for desert. Our friends also brought some desserts with too, that were super yummy.

Thankfully my parents were there to help all day, but it's still draining. I was sad that I didn't get to watch much of the game or the commercials, but the Giants won, so that's all I ultimately cared about.

Photobucket

I am a Giants fan, but bigger yet, I am an Eli Manning fan. I love the Manning brothers!

This afternoon we went to my friend, Laura's, house for Ben's 1st birthday party. It's always fun to see all their family and friends that we have gotten to know over the years. They are all so fun and nice. Hailey, my sister, Amie, and I went. It was fun to see Ben eat and play with his cupcake. They were delicious!

Photobucket

It made me start excited and got me thinking about Hailey's 1st birthday party. I know, it's not until June, but it's still fun.

All the kids on the couch for a picture.

We then came home and watched Breaking Dawn - Part 1. It had just come out on video the day before and we love it!

Saturday, February 18, 2012

Hailey and I went out to dinner with my friend Katie and Falen. We ate dinner at Big Bowl and then walked around the mall and shopped a little.

Monday, February 20, 2012

Tonight I went to my Mom's friend, Shelly's, house for another Norwex Party. It was my 3rd one. You can read all about that HERE.

Today was Ash Wednesday and it was Hailey's first, so we made our way to church with the family.

My other friend, Jessica, was there with her friend Amanda. It was so much fun!

I'm going to link up with Tara over at Fabulous But Evil for her Friday Nail Files link-up. I actually got these done last Friday night, but was way too busy that evening to blog about it or link-up. I was at Myth Nightclub seeing DJ Pauly D. Ha!

I've been wanting to get my nails done for so long, but was putting it off. This picture is from last  Saturday morning. I love gel nails/nail polish because it makes your nails look so good and lasts so long. Even now a week later, they still look good.

Photobucket

These are fake, gel nails. I get them done at my fave salon. I also get them shorter than most because I type a lot.

The color is Red Baroness from CND Shellac. At first I thought it might be too dark, but it's actually perfect. I usually like reds and pinks, but I might try something different next time. We'll see if I chicken out.

Photobucket

I'm hoping not to have to get a fill or new polish for another 2 weeks. That would be a total of 3 weeks and I'm not sure if it last, but we'll see!
