2 on Tuesday

2 on Tuesday
What two television shows that have gone off the air do you miss?
1)  Brothers & Sisters!   I was so disappointed when I found out that this show got canceled.  It was my favorite show.  I couldn’t wait for it each week, and now, it’s over, without any series finale, without any explanation. 

2)  Dirty Sexy Money!  My hubby and I watched this show faithfully, we own season 1 on DVD and then boom – they canceled it.  Blah.  I wish it would come back.

What about you?  Why don’t you link up with Andrea and tell us about your 2 on Tuesday?

Miscellany Monday

One.  We picked up Cooper’s birthday present this weekend.  It’s pretty and I cannot wait to see the look on his face when he gets it.  I love it, and hope he does too!


Two.  Hubby and several other guys (suckers if you as me, wink, wink, nudge, nudge) moved this hot tub to our house.  It now sits where our old one used to sit.  This one is bigger.  Much. Bigger.  It has 7 seats.  Wowsers.  We bought this bad boy on Craigslist.  We aren’t sure if it works yet, but we are hoping that it does, because we got a crazy good deal!


Three.  I am going to NYC tomorrow for my best friends wedding.  She and her partner Melli are getting married in one of the only states where they can.  I am excited for them.  It’ll be a whirlwind trip for me, I’ll be in NYC for less than 24 hours.  Wish it could be longer, love that city.

Four.  This upcoming week is not just NYC, it’s a busy week otherwise.  I’ve got to get our house ready for my baby’s 2nd birthday.  Cooper turns 2 on October 3rd and we’re having his birthday party next weekend.  I’m looking forward to having some fun with our family.



Those are my Miscellany items for this Monday.  Link up with Carissa and tell us about your random things.

WILW

I’m in the mood for linky parties this week, so I’m linking up with Jamie today for What I’m loving Wednesday. 

Today,
I’m loving that Cooper rode a pony when we were camping this past weekend.  He had a good time, but the pony did scare him when he made the horsey noises.

I’m loving that we found a church that we are going to return to after visiting last week.  If you live in Indy and are looking for a church home, I would encourage you to try College Park Church.  I’m not sure if we will make it our church home, but so far so good.  I cannot wait to go back.

I’m loving the Pioneer Woman’s new television show on Food Network.
Capture2
She cracks me up and makes the most delicious dishes.  I’ve set her show up on my DVR and I’m watching it weekly, I encourage you to watch. 
I’m loving how awesome this week is going to finish.  Thursday night we’re headed to a comedy show with 10 of our friends, Friday night I’m headed out with one of my longest friends, who I’ve known since I was in 5th grade.  Saturday is a home/grocery day, Cooper and I going to hang out while Tim does some work around the house.  Sunday is Stephanie’s birthday, so we’ll head to eat lunch and take her shopping then cake and ice cream.  Big weekend ahead!
Those are my loves for this week, what are yours?  Link up and share with us!

2 on Tuesday

Today, I’m linking up with Andrea over at My Chihuahua Bites for 2 on Tuesday.



 2 on Tuesday

This is the first time I’ve linked up for 2 on Tuesday, but I’m excited and glad to be linking up!

Today’s topic is…..If you were stranded on a deserted island, what two items would you wish to have with you?  (My answers are purely materialistic, I am not considering people into these answers)

 1) A computer with internet.  I just don’t know if I could live without the internet.  If I had access to the internet, I could at least keep in touch with those that I cannot reach and keep up with the worlds events.

2) Unlimited groceries in a fully equipped kitchen.  Because I love to cook and bake these items would really keep me busy with something that I love!

Those are completely crazy things to wish for, but hey, that’s me, a big geek.

Have a great Tuesday all, be sure to stop by and link up!

TGIF

It’s Friday again, and a happy Friday for me, it’s a short work day and a weekend for the family to go CAMPING!  I am so excited.  We are going to take Cooper camping for the first time.  My mom will be there, with her RV, so we will setup Cooper’s pack and play in there and he’ll sleep in there, while we sleep in the tent. 

I cannot wait to be out doors all weekend enjoying this fall weather and having a blast with my Mom, her husband and Steph and Ryan are coming down Saturday for the night.  Yay!

I’ll tell you, my car is packed like a can of sardines.  I don’t think we could fit one more thing in there, it’s super full!!

What are you all up to this weekend? 

Have a good one!  See ya next week!

Monkey Joe’s: Bounce House City

This past weekend, the entire family went to Monkey Joe’s.  We’ve been wanting to take Cooper there for awhile, but things have been busy.  We were in such luck too, because Andrew was home and available to go, and Stephanie and Ryan were able to  come too!  
Monkey Joe’s is a local place that is filled with huge bounce houses.  There is a section for kids under 3.  That is where we stayed for the majority of the time we were there.
The kids (all of them) had a great time playing with their little brother.  I am so happy these 3 older kids are apart of Cooper’s life.  They are amazing.
Cooper had the best time with the three toddler houses.  Here are some pictures.

Misc. Monday

I haven’t linked up with Carissa for awhile, so I figured it was about time I did. 
Miscellany Monday @ lowercase letters
One. Cooper got glasses.  Oh goodness, I think God must be trying to teach me patience, because making a 23 month old wear glasses is so very trying.  He is constantly taking these glasses off of his face.  So we are constantly putting them back on his face.  Sometimes it’s easier than other times.

Two.  HOT HOT HOT!  Here it was, the first Saturday in September and it was 95+ degrees outside!  We were not really excited about it, so you’ll see tomorrow what we did to occupy our time.

Three. Coupons!  I love them!  This weekend was TRIPLE coupon time at Marsh.  I don’t normally shop at Marsh, but I couldn’t resist TRIPLE coupons! I saved more than I spent, I wish I could have saved even more, but I’m happy with my 54% savings.  I’ll take it!
 
Four.  Big Brother 13.  I can’t get enough.  So glad that Danielle is gone, but wish Jeff could come back, and having Shelly gone is a great thing after she evicted Jeff.  Whoa, that was a long sentence, and I was thinking really fast, so I need to catch my breath.  Anyway, love the show, I hope Adam or Jordan win.  I just don’t care for the others but as long as Rachel doesn’t win I’m happy.

So.  That’s my bit of random today.  I hope you all have a wonderful Monday!!  I’ll be back tomorrow with some of our weekend fun!
Happy Labor Day!
