1. Finally got curtains for my bedroom, plus I actually have a plan for how I want to finish everything up, so excited to hopefully sometime soon be able to show you my bedroom reveal!
2. Eric and I have been watching the Olympics every night. This last week during the couples figure skating program, the Canadian couple Duhamel & Radford came onto the ice and I immediately thought, wow he is tall and Eric thought, wow she is short. Coming in at 6'2" and 4'11" they are 15 inches different... the same height difference as Eric and I, we are just a lot taller at 6'8" and 5'5". The funny thing, I don't really feel like Eric is that much taller than me, but as I watched them and totally noticed the height difference I thought, wow that is what people must think when they see me and Eric!
Picture From here (oh and this doesn't count at one of my 5 just had to show this) |
4. We had the Cub Scout Blue and Gold Banquet this week, this was the first time in a couple of years I was not in charge of it, kind of nice but felt weird to not be too. The boys performed for the entertainment and Lucas did a magic trick, he was awesome! He made a stuffed dog disappear. He even knocked on the table he placed the dog on to show it was solid. Then he was talking and moving his arms in a distracting way, it was awesome!
5. I finally put up Valentines day decorations two days ago.. I wasn't even going to bother but Ryder kept asking about it. I threw up a couple of garlands of hearts and he was happy so we called that good.... but I will be setting our table all fancy for our Fancy Family Valentine Dinner tonight.
Isn't that how you use chopsticks? |
Eric actually took this picture but I'm totally using it--Can you find Alex?? |
I have no idea how to use chopsticks either! Have a great Valentines Day!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I love sushi, so I have learned :)
DeleteWe're going to see the Lego movie tomorrow! Can't wait! I'm with Ryder on the chopsticks. Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteHow did you like the Lego Movie? I thought it was really cute. I like sushi a lot so have learned how to use chopsticks pretty good
DeleteI totally use chopsticks that way. That ice skater is huge!! But they are great. It took Ryan a minute to find Alex.
ReplyDeleteHe is only 6’2” she is just really short.. but yea for an ice skater that is pretty dang big
DeleteGlad I'm not the only one lettin' the Olympics control my life.
ReplyDeleteThey are fun to watch, though I am often doing several other things while watching I must admit
DeleteI feel that way with my husband too! I'm 5'3 and he's 6'1...hahaha
ReplyDeleteYes, it is funny how when you are used to someone that things just change huh?
DeleteI love Alex in the Lego Movie pic! So cute.
ReplyDeleteYes she had to hurry back there first of course :)
DeleteI love that you do the friday 5, now if I could only steal somebody's kids to go to a few movies like Frozen and The Lego movie. Anybody have some kids they would like to loan out :)
ReplyDeleteIf we lived closer I would totally let you take my kids to the movies, they would happily see them again
DeleteThe Lego Movie pic is so cute! I want to take one with my face there... hehe~

Yes,I should have gone back there myself and got my picture taken :)
DeleteI am loving the Olympics - especially the skiing and speed skating but the coverage has not been that great in my opinion. You are so good for putting up Valentine's decorations! I did nothing but cook a nice dinner. But I got a thumbs up from everyone even the kids, so that was a bonus!
ReplyDeleteYea, I agree about the coverage it has just been so-so. I put up decorations only a couple of days before just because Ryder kept asking me too :)
DeleteHa, Alex was in the picture, not Lucas? Crazy but yey, Lucas got to see his movie!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, which really isn’t surprising as she does like to get her way
DeleteI wanna know the title of the book!!!
ReplyDeleteWe have winter break here and are planning on going to see the lego movie on Friday, I hear it's quite awesome! Loved how you related to those ice skaters :)
It was Chasers Alone by James Phelan, it is a teen/ YA Dystopian novel but it definitely sucked me in, gave me some weird dreams one night too
