Date Night

We finally had a date night. We had a great sushi dinner at a new restaurant down the street Otaku then headed out to a movie. It was nice to get a night out. We need to do more of these just us 2. We are lucky enough to have great parents that are willing and offer to watch our kiddos, for us to enjoy some time together.

Ugg Slippers

They finally came today! Aaron got me a pair for Christmas to replace my very old and worn out pair. I love them! Uggs aren't the prettiest slippers, but man are they comfy.

Tomorrow Tomorrow

Tomorrow is the BIG day. The pavers are going to be installed. It will be a 2 day process and as you can see, I'm REALLY excited. Here are some before pictures.

I got a little crazy today trying to clean up for tomorrow, but I just want it to look perfect. I think I might  have some landscapers come in next week for a big clean up.

I think back in the corner is where the new home for the turtle sand box will be.  We are just going to have to take out some plants and "rock cages."

Super Saver

I have been doing Coupon Sense for quite a while now. Since August to be exact. The whole purpose was to save the $200.00 some where in the budget to pay for preschool so I didn't have to work more. And let me tell you...It sure has paid off. I am also somewhat addicted to getting free things and saving tons. I really hate if I'm at the store and forgot coupons or found items on sale that I know I have a coupon at home for. I limit myself to only going to Frys, Bashas, and CVS or I would make myself completely insane trying to go to too many stores. I'm sure I miss great deals but it isn't worth that much more work to me right now.

Check this out, I got all this for $3.56. Savings of 91%, I can't believe I ever paid full price at the grocery store. It almost makes me sick to think how much extra I have always paid for things. Yes, it takes a little extra time, but with the Coupon Sense website it is totally doable.

This is not an advertisement, I just love Coupon Sense!

Moo

Today was dollar days at Superstition Dairy Farms. So we headed over for a few hours to enjoy the smell of fresh dairy air, animals, milk, and fun! There is a petting zoo, the boys absolutely loved this bunny that sat on the table the entire time we were there. We got to feed all the animals, take a hay ride tour of the dairy, enjoy some fresh milk from the milk bar. They have several different flavors to add to the milk...delish.

I had to post Lane's little milk mustache. He could be in an ad.

It was like paradise for little kids. And to be honest, I loved it too, the weather was perfect, the kids were happy, and we got to spend some good quality time together and with friends.

Sweet Baby Allie

Meet Baby Allie. My best friend Andi delivered her sweet baby girl today 1/11/11 at 1221. 

 She is absolutely beautiful.

Nap Time

Today we all had a nap together in our bed, well I didn't sleep but rested for a little. I couldn't help but to take a picture (sorry for the quality, phone camera with an arm long reach), I love these little moments of sweetness with my boys. It took a little bit to get Lane to sleep but it was a success. They love when they get to share a bed. Soon we will be moving them in together and I will hopefully get to see this more frequently.

Shoe Cluster

So this Project 365 is going to get pretty deep into our every day lives. Considering this is being posted just in the nick of time for today. But this is a serious issue at our house. I'm not sure that the boys really care, but it drives me crazy, and it needs some solving soon. Running upstairs to get a pair of shoes is a pain, especially when we are on a shoe hunt for the littles just about every day. The shoe basket is running over and needs to be dumped every time we are looking for a certain pair. We also have them tucked away behind a chair if we think we might use them again the same day. Perhaps we have too many shoes. I am in need of some organizing HELP! My plan is to get a cute little bench with cubbies/baskets in the entry way so we each can have a cubbie with the shoes we wear most often. Think that will help? Any ideas would be great!
