Da Bomb!

Here's my current top 5 list of things that are da bomb! (for anyone who doesn't appreciate my slang, that's things I really like!)
1. The smell of Bath and Body Works True Blue Spa products. You can't really go wrong with BBW products, but this stuff smells like spring flowers after the rain!
2. These stuffed portabella mushrooms from my friend Andrea. So good! I made them for me and a friend and she's vegetarian, so I substituted carrots and cauliflower for the chicken . It's a a giant version of the appetizer you order at restaurants.
3. Cruisin' on the lake in the evening. My parents just bought a pontoon boat and we went on the "maiden voyage" last night. The weather was awesome!
4. Soon being unemployed - by choice! My school job is grant funded, the grant is over and I'm outta there in about a month!
5. Being close to finding a new pastor at church. We've been without a pastor for over a year and I'm on the committee to hire a new one. We've seen some great candidates and I'm excited!

Here's my current list of things that should have da bomb dropped on them:
1. Being close to finding a new pastor at church. We're almost there, but this process has taken so long and is so rigorous. I hope we make a decision soon!
2. Steve's iphone. He's on that thing all the damn time! Did you see the Marriage Ref last week? Same thing.
3. Savannah's restless night. I guess the soothing boat ride did nothing for her last night because she was up about 3 times in the night and got up very early this morning (keep in mind early for us is about 6:30). I'm hoping I can work in a nap for all of us today.
4. From last summer's post: hair removal. Nuf said.
5. Doing dishes. Why can't I seem to keep up? It's like the little bastards are Gremlins and they reproduce when you get them wet!

What's on your "bomb" list?

Roman Holiday

Last month I flew out and met Steve in Rome. He was already in Europe for work so caught him at the end of his tour. Here are a few pics from our trip.....


































It was Steve's birthday while we were there so they brought him a birthday tirimisu!!

Leftovers

Remember back in February, Savannah was being stingy with a gift? It laid around her room forever. Well, guess what the little dear brings to me yesterday? Mm-hmm.
She comes up to me and says, "Mama, I have a surprise for you. It's something left over from Valentine's Day."
I guess better late than never! I just hope I don't get my Mother's Day gift in August.
Happy Mother's Day!
