Hm, this might be a long post. Haven’t posted in a week now.
So this past weekend is a blur. I remember working A LOT last weekend and then finally heading to Longhorn at almsot 9pm on Friday night and then sleeping in Saturday. OH! Then I went to dinner with a bunch of kids going to prom on Saturday night! Um, yeah, I said prom. Two of the girls in the youth group I’m close to invited Scott and I and the youth pastor and his wife to dinner with them. Two couples dropped and they had room on their reservation. Last minute, they dropped out because they had no babysitter and then Scott wouldn’t go without him so it was just me. I tried to back out too but they begged me to go so I did. I felt SO lame at the house taking pictures with the others and then waving bye to all the parents when we left for dinner. But I took the role of sexy chaperone and went with it. Dinner was at Villa Antonio’s in Charlotte. And it was SO good. Definitely have to go back there with some adult couples. The dinner was actually a ton of fun. I drove back with them to the high school and D and I watched the rest of the people going in, as is our annual ritual.
Sunday was normal stuff and then the same ‘ol, same ‘ol came back this week. Nothing extravagent going on.
I’ve attempted a new tactic with Emma and the potty, creating a potty chart with new stickers. It worked once. She has one sticker on there. She has since acted like she wants to go to use it but has had at least one accident I can think of. Ugh. One day she will get this all right.
This weekend I’m going to do a mini photo shoot at M’s house with J, her husband who took the pictures from the magazine. I’m going to attempt to get 4 good pictures and make a comp card and possibly look into modeling. No lingerie or swimsuits for me, just something like I did last time in a catalog or such. I’m not getting my hopes up but it would be an extra-fun part-time job.
As for Bachelor…LOVED his picks for this week. Bevin is definitely on the top of my list of who I think he really likes although I really like Amber.
American Idol…I liked Chris and Jordin this week. I can’t believe how much better Jordin has gotten. She sort of reminds me of Kelly from the first season even though she came on stronger a little earlier. My guess is Lakisha or Chris will go though. With 6 left, I’m getting to the point where I will really miss whoever goes and Simon was right when he said the competition started last night.
Also in the works is a DVD for our youth group to hand out at our spring festival next weekend. Lots of work to do between now and then.
Yay, Daddy’s home! S and I ended up taking our two vans up to the airport to get them. We had a hard time finding it as the screen was not very descriptive of where to find arriving international flights. So Scott was headed from the opposite of baggage claim when the girls saw him. So they did the whole running to and hugging him thing. It was sweet. Lexi didn’t let him go for a good 10 minutes. Then it was back to mommy. Such a mommy’s girl. 
So the trip went well. No “big stories” to tell. They were able to give about 30 packages away and go into some places no missionary has been before but I believe that was about it. Scott is horrid on details so maybe when I hear the story from someone else, it will be more dramatic. lol. He couldn’t quit talking about how beautiful the country was and how friendly everyone was. 
So his parents ended up coming over here to fix dinner which worked out much better. Scott’s eyes were drooping around 7 which was 2am his time and he had been up since 4:30 am his time. Needless to say he’s been in bed. The girls kept wanting to sit with him and even wanted to lay in bed with him after he went to sleep. Lexi moreso than Emma. Sweet girls missed their daddy, that’s for sure.
