My big dog!!! He's such a good dog!
Tuck took a picture!


Just hangin out







I thought this was so pretty I took a picture! I love my burgundy plates. Crazy, I know.
It's a quiet day! Rusty and the boys went to shoot a round of skeet this morning while I stayed home and laid on the couch. I have no energy. I hate colds.
Rusty bought me beautiful flowers for Valentine's! I should take a pic, but I am too lazy to get up to take one.

New glasses!!!


We picked up new glasses for Ethan today. He usually wears contacts, but it was time for new glasses with the right prescription. They are Nike brand. I didn't even now Nike made glasses. They are blue, but you can't really tell in the picture. It is always so weird seeing him in his glasses when he has been wearing contacts for so long.

Flight time!


I bought this airplane for Rusty for Christmas and it was missing a part. Rusty finally got the part the other day and finished it. He took it out to see if he could fly it the other day. Too many snow banks. He managed to break the propeller and the wheels, but no flight. He fixed it, but decided he should wait till he has enough room to get it in the air. He was havin' fun though.

I bought a new griddle/grill the other day and the boys think it makes the world's best quesidillas. Ethan was marveling over his creation.


Tucker loves having his picture taken. He is always wanting me to take his picture.

South Beach buddy

My MIL has decided to join me on South Beach. She started yesterday! I will share information with her and we can lose weight together.

Rusty and I went to dinner last night at Chili's. I decided on the Steak and Mushroom Fajita's without the tortilla's and sour cream. It was pretty yummy! I would have liked more veggies than just the onions and peppers. There was the mushroom, but it was a pretty small amount. It was tasty though. They marinate it in a cilantro, lime sauce. YUM!!! I am pretty proud of myself for not ordering the Triple Dipper appetizer. I love the chicken crispers and the southwest egg rolls.

Mary- I forgot to tell you for my sweet treat in the evening I have a No Sugar added fudge bar mixed with a spoon of natural peanut butter. So yummy! Try it if you need a sweet.

Good Luck this week!!!
