Spring is here!!!

How do I know? From our schedule this week. Example: Monday night, volley ball game; Tuesday, Brad's softball game; Wednesday, Brad's softball game; Thursday, Brad's softball game. Softball season is always the start of spring for me and it's started with a bang this season, and several scrapes and bruises for Brad from sliding and getting hit with the ball :) Unfortunately, I 'm not on a team this year:( However, I will get to play in the church tourney April 11th, so that should be fun!

Why I love Mr Wonsch...

There are many, many reasons, but some of the top ones are:
1. He'll wake up early and drive me to work if I'm still sleepy.
2. He brings me water at night.
3. He tucks me in at night.
4. He gives me the best bite of his sandwiches.
5. He'll let me pick where we eat out at.
6. He lets me plan dinner, but he cooks it :)
7. He lets me have to fluffiest pillow at night.
8. He almost always drives when we travel.
9. He likes the same TV shows as me.
10. He carries in all the groceries when we go shopping.
This makes me sound spoiled, but it shows why Mr. Wonsch is such a wonderful hubby!
P.S. I just noticed a lot of these have to do with food :)

stain, stain be gone!

The other night Brad became forgetful and accidentally left a grocery bag with ice cream sandwiches and ice cream bars sitting on the couch, which has on it a white couch cover that I love. The bag was discovered the next morning when I walked into the living room. As I walked over to the bag, I was thinking "Maybe Brad put the ice cream in the freezer and for some crazy reason came back into the living room to leave the bag on the couch". Wishful thoughts. I picked the bag up to find melted ice cream and chocolate running all over the couch and into the cushions. It was a MESS! We had to strip off the couch cover and the regular cushion covers and then clean the cushions. We currently are without a washer and dryer, so we made a run to my parents to use theirs. Thankfully, my mom was stocked up on stain stick, which is the best thing ever. All the covers came out of the wash just like new. So FYI, if you ever have a crazy stain, I'm pretty sure stain stick can clean it for you!

Lindley's new style

I finally talked Lindley into letting me cut her hair. Added bonus, she actually agreed to let me dye and highlight it also. WHAT!!! Never thought she'd go for that. This was the first time I've ever dyed hair and I think it turned out pretty good.

New floors

Whoohoo!!! We saw our new floors for the first time today.
They are so beautiful!!!! Turned out way better than I ever
imagined. Now, onto painting. Not my favorite thing to do,
but Marquesas has convinced us it's not an impossible task :)
