Happy Easter!

Happy Easter Everyone!! 

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter or Passover with their families this weekend.  We celebrated ours today by watching Phillies vs. Pirates on MLBtv.com.  Unfortunately the Phillies lost, but it was a good game none the less.  We got to see a little of the Yankee game too but they also lost and the Cardinal game and thankfully they at least won.

Lazy Sunday

Today I decided to organize the dreaded pot closet and tupperware closet in the kitchen.  I also got to work on some more scrapbooking and relax a bit.  For dinner I made some awesome Sheppard's Pie from the Weight Watchers cookbook.
Justin played Mass Effect and here is what the boys did:




Sleep!!!
After dinner we played some Gears and just relaxed.  It was a nice relaxing Sunday.  Oh here is a great picture from Friday night.

Scrapbooking Saturday

Saturday morning I got up and headed to Aqua Fit while Justin got ready to work.  After a exhausting class I got a few things at the market and headed home to do some things around the house.
 
That afternoon Bonnie and I went scrapbooking at the Archiver's at Gurnee Mills Mall.  We love to go to the scrap mania events because we can use their die cuts, spread out all our stuff, and buy cool things to enhance our pages.  We met in the parking lot at 3pm.  We saw these funny new parking spots that looked like gas pumps.  It turns out they were for electric cars.  We had to snap some pictures.


Once we got in side the mall it was a little chaotic because it looked like the Zumie's store had some kind of promotion because there was a huge line in front of the Latin Snacks place and they were letting people into Zumie's one at a time.  Once we got to Archiver's we checked in and then made our usual round of seeing what new items were in the store.  We were at table 4 which we love because it is in the back by the die cuts.  I got a few new Smash book items and was excited about that.  I worked on my Smash book, scrapping the pictures from my sorority event and Bonnie worked on her baby shower pictures.  We eventually took a break for some Starbucks.  They had a drawing at 6:30 and Bonnie won free prints.  We stayed from 3-7:30 and then headed home for dinner.  

Justin and I made the best tacos ever with some yummy meat I bought at Garden Fresh Market.  I was also happy because I got to play Gears 3 Horde and 5 games of Beast with some nice people online.  What a great Saturday!

Fill In the Blank Friday




1. My greatest strength is my travel planning abilities and home organization skills when I choose to use the :) .

2. My greatest weakness is handling change sometimes, it can be hard if things do not go as planned.

3. People always compliment me on my thriftiness, they are amazed at the deals I find .

4. If you found me procrastinating you'd probably find me blogging or watching tv.

5. The most cozy place in all the world is my bed in the winter with the electric blanket on, Justin, and the cats.

6. Something new that I tried recently was knitting with the sparkly yarn and it came out pretty good.

7. This weekend I would like to maybe get the house cleaned up and some things organized a bit better.
