Last night my friends came over and we all played Disney Scene it with Dime (our only excuse for a bunch of 20 year olds to be playing this game.) So it was our team's turn and a scene from Finding Nemo comes on. We carefully watch the scene looking at every detail... and the question is: Name the two fish in this scene.Very confident in our answer, everyone on the team, which consisted of four people, all shout out, "Nemo and Dori!!!" Wouldn't you agree with us???

Scene it?!?

A Special Day...
Today was a special day for Dime and I. Although both of us were baptized as babies, today we wanted to be baptized by our awesome Pastor. I am so proud of Dime. It was actually her idea and we talked about it for some time before I even decided to talk to Pastor about it. The idea of "going to a different church" is already somewhat a touchy subject at home and I knew this would not make it any better. But I went with that little voice in my head shouting "Do it! Do it! Do it!" and decided to do it anyway. Dime was so excited about sharing her love for the Lord with the world and I was excited to be right there with her.
These past couple of months, I have fallen in love with Jesus all over again. There has been this little wall, maybe a fence, built up between me and my relationship with God that I have finally broken down. This growing time has absolutely been an amazing time in my life. I truly believe that people come into your life for a reason, even if they don't realize what their purpose may be for being there. And this is exactly what has happened. Though it may have hurt at first, something great came out of it. And the even more wonderful thing is that God loves us no matter what and is always willing to take us as we are and I thank Him for that.
Thank you Dear Lord for everything You've done in our lives. You are an awesome God. Help us to continue to live our lives for Your glory. Let Your love shine through us. We love You.

Let's go out and multiply...
I know I just wrote about math yesterday, but this one actually isn't about that.
Every morning at work, one of the first things we do is grab the newspaper and read the obitiuaries together. Sounds weird, I know, but it's not something that we do for entertainment. It's actually part of our job. Well today... one of the obituaries said this lady had 269 grandchildren. Woah! That's a bunch of kiddos! She had 8 kids. You can do the rest of the math.

Mathematics...
I think I'm officially a nerd. Tonight I helped a friend out with algebra homework and I was actually excited about it. I absolutely LOVE solving math equations. I couldn't wait to reach a solution and was thrilled about moving on to the next problem. WOW!!! What's wrong with me?!? I LOVE numbers and you can even throw in some X's and Y's for me.
How weird...

Sounds early, but I'm excited about it! Our department completed our monthly goals and we get to all eat breakfast at IHOP. Has anyone seen the commercial for the fruit filled crepes?!? They look so yummy that I think that's what I'll be having.
We absolutely love food at work! We tried to time how long we could go without the mention of the 'f-word' or anything that had to with it... we never made it past 8 minutes... Geeze huh?

It's been so long...
I didn't realize how many days have passed by since my last post. I never update this so probably no one reads it anymore. It's just been so busy lately. We actually even had to skip church last night to finish up Dime's big "Me Collage" that is due tomorrow. We started on Saturday and finally got the finishing touches done tonight.
I wish I could find a job where I could work from 9 to 3 five days a week, but get paid like I'm working 40. Ha! Ya right. I must be dreaming. Someone pinch me please.

Ummm... no...
Tomorrow, one of my co-workers is going to have a girl's night at one of their houses. She is going to cook some yummy chili enchiladas and all this other good for you Mexican food... She also suggested us playing games and stuff. So we thought of Taboo, Uno, Scattegories, Cranium, Mad Gab... and then somone says...
Uh, there are just some games that you can't play with the people you work with...
Especially after a week of us going through TWO bags of candy.

Pretty cool... really cool...
I'm not a big fan of blazing hot weather. So today when I dropped Dime off at the bus stop, I was absolutely thrilled with the temperature outside. I'm glad I sent her with a sweater because it didn't ever really warm up...
But why, when it's already a perfect temperature outside, does the person who controls the thermostat at work decide to turn it to 40 degrees?!? It seriously felt like a freezer in there. I think we could've all been wearing our winter coats and we would have been comfortable.
I'm bringing mine to work tomorrow.

Bye bye slipper...
I love to wear house shoes! Anytime I am inside the house, I have to wear them. A few months ago, my mom bought me one of my favorite pairs... but then last night, it finally happened. The day I've been dreading the most (Okay, maybe that's just a small exaggerration.) Everyday since we've had her, I've been very careful about putting them away at night to avoid this. But last night, I was so tired and I forgot. So here it is...

Nothing interesting...
I wish I could write a funny story or something just worth sharing... but I guess nothing exciting has happened lately. All I know is that in the midst of the busyness all week... I have absolutely nothing to write about.
