Ham Anyone!

Jese showing off all 9 lbs of ham we made for supper!!

Today was busy!! This morning after Jese took a shower we rode our bikes to Subway so he could get a free breakfast because today was free breakfast day! Then we cleaned the kitchen and wrote our grocery list! Then we had to go get gas because I may have ran my car out of it almost!! While we were there Jese got free coffee because we got gas! So he got a free breakfast and free coffee today! Then we went to Bargain Betty's to see if they still had a shirt that Mama wanted, they didn't we should have bought it when we saw it! Then we went to the thrift shop but didn't find anything there. Then we went to Cedar Summit Farm, it is an all organic farm! We got some ice cream, milk, string cheese, and honey there! Then we went grocery shopping. Then Amy came here so we could take her to the Cedar Summit Farm, then we got Yogurt, pancake, and waffle mix because it was cheaper there than at the grocery store. After that Amy dropped us off at home and we went to Target and Petsmart. We got Kipper a super big bone because he eats them so fast, it is too big for him though because he can't carry it around like he likes to, so now he is mopping! Jese is cleaning our fish tank because it is super dirty. We are going to watch Avatar tonight, I gave in and bought it for Jese, because I am nice like that! Okay well that is all I know today!

Rainy Day!

Hello! This weekend was a great one! On Friday, Jese and I spent the day cruiser bike shopping!! I got a really nice one at Fleet Farm and Jese got a nice, but slightly cheaper one from Walmart! We got home and rode them to the grocery store and got back just before the rain started!! 

On Saturday since it was supposed to rain all day we watched movies! Then when we were finished we rode our bikes to the video store to return them! 

Today I did the laundry and dishes. I also started my menu for next month. Mama came for a little bit while her house was being shown. She brought Dexter so Kipper was very happy!! Now he is all tuckered out! Right now I am watching Runaway Bride on TV! 

This week I want to make my way to the local thrift shop to look for some wall decor for our house because we really don't have anything! Mama pointed that out to me today and I agreed with her! Okay well that is all I know today :)

Oh yes, I forgot, my husband is so smart! So far he has all A's again!! He is waiting for one more grade still but right now he has a perfect 4.0!! I told him that if he graduated the valedictorian for his degree then he could get whatever gaming system comes out when he graduates!

Naughty Dog!!

Kipper and Oreo are finally starting to get along!! They other day Oreo even allowed him to sit next to her!!

Kipper was very naughty this morning. Jese walked outside and Kipper sneaked out and ran away!! With the help of two nice walkers Jese was able to catch him a few blocks down. Good thing those people were there to stop him because he was running with no end in sight!! Now he is in his kennel thinking about what he did. 

I haven't been up to much this week, which is why I haven't been updating. I babysat on Tuesday and Thursday. Yesterday Jese sat outside and got burned, haha!! He talked to the new neighbors and they are finally moving in next week. That will be weird having people live next to us again. Okay well that is all I know!

Laundry Day!

Hello!! Yesterday I got up bright and early to go garage saleing! I drove all the way to Waseca so I could go to Le Center with Amy and Mama, I was super nice and got us all donuts! We spent from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM going to garage sales. We all got some pretty good deals! I got some clothes, mixing bowls, clothes hampers, a christmas angel for my tree, and a post for a clothes line! Jese spent the day getting us a lawn mower. Since we got that we probably won't put in a retaining wall now because we also still need to get a new microwave and I want to get a freezer. After Jese got back with the lawn mower he put it together and mowed our grass for the first time! It was super long so now it looks much better. Today I am going to spend the day doing laundry. I would like to spend the day outside but I am having some eye issues and when I go outside I pretty much can't see! Okay well that is about all I know today.

Yum!!!

Hello!! I don't know much today. I spent all day yesterday working on a blanket that Cassie asked me to make for her. Today I babysat all day, the kids were both very good. Today for supper I made deer roast and it was the best deer roast I have ever had!! I made it the way Jamie Oliver said to in my new cookbook and it was so good!! My gravy needs some work though, it tasted really good but I didn't get it to thicken up. The roast didn't taste deer-y at all! Speaking of wild animals, on my way home today I almost hit a huge turkey, it was monstrous! Right now I am watching 2012. Tomorrow I plan on working on Cassie's blanket and hopefully (Fingers crossed) finish it. Okay well I am get working on it right now!

Help Wanted!!

Hello! Jese needs help on Saturday!! We want a retaining wall put in but we don't have a truck to haul anything!! Friday or Saturday will be the only days he can do it so if you want to help let him know so we can get it put in!!! It won't be a very big one so it won't take very long :)

It's A Nice Day For A White Wedding!!

Mr. & Mrs. Sheehy

Having a little to much fun!

How I spent today! (The towel is there because I had to dry off my phone!)

Hello! Yesterday was Alicia and Brandon's wedding. It was a beautiful day out and perfect for a wedding!! Jese and I had lots of fun there, I may have had too much fun though! I spent all day on the couch unable to eat anything until 3:00, whoops!! I also managed to drop my phone into my glass of water and now the touch screen won't work on it which means I have no phone!! Oh well, I can always get a new one sometime this week :) Well my shows are about to start, I will put more pictures up in days to come!

Jese is so cute!!

Jese is having a tea party with Josie, they are so cute!!

Yea, we are getting a dishwasher!!!

Star came for another visit!

Let us out!!

Yea, I am so happy!!! I found a portable dishwasher on craigslist last night and Jese called them and they are going to bring it to us tonight!! Yea, no more washing dishes!!! I am so happy, I hate washing dishes!! The only bad part is I washed our dirty dishes right before Jese called them and so I really wouldn't have had to. 

Today I got Amy to bring Liam and Josie here instead of me going down there. I didn't feel like driving down there so instead they are going to spend the night here! Liam is very excited about it!! Josie is sleeping right now. Liam and I just played some games and now he is playing on the computer and then I am going to make him lay down! Hopefully he takes a nap, if he doesn't I will just put in a movie for him upstairs. Okay well I don't really know anything else!

I tried something new!!

Four-Cheese Florentine

Everyone should be so proud of me! Today I tried two new things!! I tried a smoothy, which I generally don't like but I think I could get used to it!! I also tried four-cheese florentine. That didn't go over so well with me!! I don't like spinach at all I decided!!! I was brave and tried two bites but that was all I could handle :) Tonight I will make Pronto Pasta Italiano which I know I like because it has no veggies in it!

Oh yes, Kipper is 1!! His birthday was April 2nd, we missed it, opps!

Post #800!!

Oreo got a little dirty playing outside!!

All of last years leaves are picked up!

Kipper looks sad because he wanted to play with a stick and not with me!

Pizza, Queen of the Leaves!!

Well I did it, I have made it to 800 post so far! A lot has changed since my first post, which was August 23, 2005. It was a very short post so I will put it up again to remind everyone what it was:

"Today I got up nice and early to go to school. I arrived at about 9:15 in the morning. I really did not feel like unpacking so mother did it all for me. When we were all done mother, father, rick, neva, jese, and i all went to a mexican restuarant. i did not like it very much i thought the enchiladas tasted like chow main so i did not eat all of mine. jese and i came back to his dorm and we talked to a few people on his floor. they all seemed pretty nice. tonight we have a floor meeting that i don't really feel like going to but i have to. but right now jese is on his way over here to go shopping.

Bye, Christa W"

Well I am no longer in school, no longer in Winona in fact!! Our parents probably wouldn't all be helping us move together anymore, and mother probably won't unpack anything for me anymore!! Since then Jese and I have both gotten our college diplomas, married, cats, a dog, and a house! Jese is still going to college, but this time it is graduate school. And I am spending my days as a housewife, nanny, and carny! I think I can say for the both of us that we are both in a happier time of our lives and are enjoying almost every moment!! 

Enough of the looking back, now lets look at what happened since I last posted!! Yesterday I babysat, it was pretty easy! Josie slept in until 10:00!!! Well actually she woke up at 6:45 so I got her up and changed her diaper and she was falling back to sleep while I did that so I laid her back down. When I got home I put away the clean dishes and then did nothing. Today I have already been up for an hour and I have taken a shower and everything! I haven't ate breakfast yet because last night as I was falling asleep Jese came home and told me he was going to make french toast. I plan on getting lunch made next so that way when it is lunch time I can just pop it in the oven! I hope it rains out all day, I miss the rain! Right now it is just sprinkling. Okay well I am going to go be sneaky and get socks without waking up Jese because I can't stand the feel of sock-less feet!

Happy Easter!!

Happy easter everyone!! So far today has been wonderful because Jese decided to be super nice and make pancakes for breakfast!! He said now that he is working days he has lots more energy and can make me breakfast now!! We hardly ever have anything besides cereal in the mornings, of course we also hardly ever ate breakfast together when he worked nights. 

Last night Amy, Adam, L&J, Cassie, Nick, Dad, and Rita all came over. We grilled some chicken and I made lemonade cheesecake. It was all really good, Jese was disappointed there wasn't any leftover cheesecake though! We also had a fire, it started out bad because we didn't have any small wood to start it but we eventually got it going with all of the leaves Jese raked up!! When we went in for the night Jese put it out with a few pitchers of water but when he went to bed it had started back up again so he put some more water on it. Well this morning I got up and saw that our lawn chairs had tipped over and it looks like they didn't catch on fire but melted from the heat!! So now we need to get new ones!!! Today I am going to the Becker's for Easter and then to Dad's to watch them open wedding presents. Jese has to work so no Easter for him :( Poor guy, but at least he doesn't have to work nights anymore! 

This morning I watched the documentary No Impact Man, I liked it! Now that Jese is out of the shower I am going to go take one. Have a happy easter!

Can Kipper Come Out And Play!!

Hello!! I am being a mean puppy mommy right now and not letting Kipper go out and play with his friend Star. I don't feel like going outside and untangling him every two minutes so I am making him stay in here, hahaha!! Star tried to come on but I didn't let her. I don't really know much, I am getting crabby so I think instead of making supper I am going to eat a tuna sandwich and sit down and do nothing!!

Whew, it is getting hot!!

Hello! Yesterday I spent the entire day outside reading, it was great!! I did however underestimate the power of the sun and ended up getting burned. Whoops!! Today I babysat again, Jese was nice and came down for a bit. We took the kids to the park and to DQ for lunch. Then Josie went to bed and we played outside with Liam. Then Jese went home and Liam went to bed. I watched last night episode of Ugly Betty since I went to bed at 9:00. By the time Amy got home Josie was up and happy and Liam was still sound asleep! Once I got home I read my new cookbook and then spent all evening paying all of our bills. I just got done doing those, now I am watching Grey's Anatomy with Jese. Okay that is all for tonight!
