Family Party

Saturday we had a family party for Josh. We cleaned the house and set up for everyone to come eat and hang out. 

I'm so thankful my family lives close and likes to get together to celebrate especially for my awesome husband. 

I love seeing my nieces and nephews. I love hanging them hang out! They are making memories they will never forget. I can't wait until summer! 

I'm thankful for our family get togethers. 

Friday

Today I finally got to leave work early! It was Friday, home game, and I got to leave the building by 4pm. I was so pumped. It was nice to have the evening to go to our friends surprise party. I was worry free and had fun not being at work!

Pregnancy: I got to come home and rest. I'm feeling huge, but not much I can do about it. I've been more tired than usual, but I'm alright. Few more weeks to go. Will we really have a baby here ALL the time? Wow. Yikes. That's a little scary.  

Catching Up

Today Jason was finally back to work after surgery. 

We finally got to spend some time catching up!

I'm thankful for that time today. P

Softball Season

Today I really got the softball bug. A combination of the spring like weather, picking out t-shirts designs, winter workouts, and doing a little scheduling might have done the trick today. 

Starting a new season is always hard for me. Today, though was an exciting step toward a new season. I'm not going to lie, I loved my team the last few years. The graduated seniors hold a dear place in my heart. I will miss them tremendously. 

Todayi realized that I'm ready to move forward. I'm ready to rebuild a varsity team. I like the fact that many of the girls, young and old, are nervous. They are eager to please and want a shot as a varsity player. It's fun!

Today opened my head coaching eyes. It reminded me that the varsity should be made of the best players. The ones with heart. The ones with guts. The ones willing to do whatever it takes to win!

I'm thankful for my softball outlook after today. I'm ready for softball 2014!! 

Phone Call from Paige

Today I got a phone call from my lovely little niece Paige. She asked Tara if she could call me from the van. She likes the blue tooth action in the van. :)

She wanted to say hi. But then she asks. "Hey Aunt Tonya. You wanna go to Panera for lunch?" Tara starts to laugh and says, "I didn't know she was going to ask you that." Too funny!! 

It was decided so we went to Panera after a Meijer shopping trip. I'm thankful that my snow day involved my sister and her kids and Paige asking me to lunch. Love that kid!!

Also, when I got home, my mailbox contained something I wasn't expecting for a few weeks. Private Practice Season 2!! Whoop whoop! I was pumped. I started watching this afternoon. Seven episodes. Hehe. Josh has watched some of them with me too! We are fans!

I'm thankful for my phone call today and my surprise in the mail!

Pregnancy: had and OB appointment today. 5 weeks left. Things look good. I now have to go every Tuesday for regular check ups. Baby room not ready. Can't wash the outfits. Think it's a boy. We don't have a name yet. She or he is moving all the time. Slept terribly last night with heartburn. Feeling good though. Worked out last night and tonight. Fast walk, then slow walk a minute. Lifts. Squats. Ready to get back into shape and wear spring clothes! 

Massage

Today I used my gift certificate from Josh from Chritsmas to get a back massage. It was a day off and I didn't have much ambition. So I went to the mall. I found my favorite Chinese guy and plopped down in the chair. 

30 minutes of mindless sitting. It was great. Loved it. 

I'm thankful for my 30 minute free massage today!!

Lansing Shopping

Our trip to Lansing included lunch with Josh's family and a little shopping. We were celebrating Josh's birthday a little early. 

It was nice to chat with his family and visit. Too bad they had to drive so far...but car rides aren't too nice to me right now. Sitting for too long is brutal. 

I was happy too to find a few things we were looking for our house. Josh wanted some place mats. I needed new shoes. My last pair are pretty worn out. I found a sweet pair that I can't wait to wear. 

I'm glad we did some shopping today too. Josh got to see his family too. Good times.
