Cheers To The Weekend!

Welcome back to my blog! Anyone else feel like there should be a day between Saturday and Sunday?! The weekend always seems to fly by! On the weekends I have 2 rules: #1 I'm not cooking dinner. #2 Relax and have fun! Last Friday, after I left work I stopped by Target on the way home. It was pouring rain as I was shopping, so you know I had to wait out the rain and spend an hour and half in there! 😂lol! When I got home I practiced making projects on my new Circut! Then made tacos for Tyler and I and enjoyed watching One Tree Hill on Hulu!
Saturday, we got up and drove to Anderson, IN to see a former youth student, now a dear friend. We had a great time catching up and went to the cutest coffee shop called, Jack Rabbit Coffee! Then we ventured over to a thrift store! That evening we celebrated our friend Chad's birthday at B dubs. My cousin and I were flying solo for dinner, without our husbands for the night, so we thought we would do something fun...crazy....spontaneous...after dinner, we went to the club...the Franklin Skate Club that is! LOL! We went roller skating! We hadn't been in years! You should've seen us!! We were holding hands so we didn't fall while these 14 years olds passed us up and nearly knocked us over! I could not stop laughing! We did great! Neither one of us fell! hahaha! Sunday, Tyler and I went to church and then had Mexican for lunch with my mom, grandma, and uncle. That evening I led our high school youth group and we had a wonderful time of playing sardines in the church, worshipping Jesus together, and deep small group time. oh! & enjoyed some pizza together! Overall it was the best weekend I've had in a long time. As I've gotten older I found myself to be a kind of a "loner" because I am perfectly content with spending my weekends at home watching tv with my husband and crafting. But when I do get to spend time with the people I love it fills my heart! 💓
What does your ideal weekend look like?


Challenge: This weekend do something out of the ordinary! Not necessarily out of your comfort zone, but something that you enjoy that you often don't take time to do that's good for your soul!💕

Last Minute Gift Idea

Can you believe Christmas is only 6 days away?!?! I feel like Tyler and I just put up the tree! This is such a busy time of year for both my work and social life! But I love it! I am about done wrapping gifts for our family members. But it dawned on me that I left a few people out! Our neighbors, the mail man, my youth students, and a couple long distant cousins. So I had this simple and cheap Christmas gift idea! I used holiday to-go mugs and filled it with candy and packets of hot chocolate! I put a cute bow on top and gift tag and I was done! I think they turned out pretty great! Here are some pics! Let me know your last minute Christmas gift ideas! Or if you decided to give mine a try!

DIY Christmas Cards

If you love to be creative and festive like me, then you will love making your very own Christmas cards! A nice card can be pretty expensive, so this year I decided to "DIY" my cards! I have always loved making personal birthday cards, so this year I thought, why not Christmas too?! I already had everything I needed to create the cards so the only thing that costed me was the stamps to mail them! Which is totally worth it to put a smile on my family's face with a little surprise in the mail! Here are some tips and pics of my DIY 2019 Christmas cards!  I used Christmas themed scrapbook paper and folded it over to make it thicker, like a card. I also added these cute scrapbook stickers.  They add so much cuteness to the cards!!  Nice stickers can be be pretty pricy at the craft stores, but my Grandma is so sweet and picks me up some stickers all year round when she goes to Goodwill and gets them for .99 for a brand new pack! I would rec...

What's To Come

I'm really looking forward of what's to come after all of this Corona-Crazy comes to an end! Although I'm LOVING working from home! I'm excited to for our first church gathering and our first night back at high school youth group! I can't wait for all the smiles, hugs, and laughs that will be shared! I really believe and pray that people will appreciate each other and the little things in life more than we used to!  I'm also really looking forward to our gender reveal party Tyler and I are going to host at our house next month! And we FINALLY get to find out if Baby Burton is a boy or girl! I feel like it's a girl, Tyler is convinced it's a boy! lol I don't even care at this point! I just want to know!!!! So I've been keeping my focus on the great things to come, instead of the negatives... which has really helped me during this time of being alone. I've also realized I'm more of a homebody/ introvert than I thought! lol Of course soc...
