Lots going on....

It is a gorgeous Sunday afternoon in Northwest Arkansas, and after a great morning filled with church, our friends, and some good ol' home cookin' from Momma Dean's...it is naptime. Oh, Mark just sat up on the couch, straight from his sleep, because something exciting happened on the Cardinals game on the tube. HA!

We have had lots of fun things going on lately. Between birthdays, mother's day, graduations, weddings, etc... we haven't had much time to ourselves. So, we promised each other that this weekend would be our weekend together. Friday night we went to Stomp at the Walton Arts Center, which was lots of fun! Then, a couple of my friends from home surprised me in town, so we met up with them on Saturday for brunch. We had a fun day cruising in the Jeep (sunburned shoulders for me!), before the hard work began. I did some gardening in the front, and picking up in the back. All the while, Mark was digging a trench for the 3rd time to fix our sprinkler system that Jack had pulled up. It took him all day, so I really hope it is still buried this morning. We went out for dinner at 9:00 and quickly hit the hay when we got home.

We have 28 days until our annual vacation to the Bahamas. It turns out that Jonna isn't getting to go with us afterall, but Richard is still going to come along. The only good thing about Jonna missing out is that Mark & I get the bedroom rather than the sleeper couch! WAHOO! But, we would much rather sleep on the sofa and have Jonna there. But since she can't....

Today is my mom, uncle (her twin), cousin, and sister's mother-in-law's birthday. Happy birthday to all of you! It was also my great-grandfather's birthday. In celebration of births, I doodled some baby names in church this morning and Mark rolled his eyes at me. He said he likes Jack. I have narrowed the names down to Mary Allison or Allison Kate, all after my grandmothers. Hope we don't have a boy first. :)

I am super busy with work right now, and we just received BIG news from Mark's job on Friday. He has had a change of jobs (for the better) to be a forecaster and demand planner for Unilever. He will be doing this work on deodorants! So, keep on buying your Degree, Dove, and Axe! I am so proud of him!

Jack is doing well. He is singing in the back yard as we speak. He has an unusual talent with this. He ate Mark's sunglasses case yesterday, but thankfully the glasses made it out okay.
