Ugh, Crazy!

Oops.. So I got a little bit behind. Let me update you on MY exciting life..

My wonderful husband and I have gotten sick of the food in our pantry. Its the same stuff over and over again so my husband got on the computer and started looking up recipes. We haven't had REAL homemade food in forever, its always been out of a box or freezer. so for the past few days we have had amazing dinners and my husband does it all. I never have to lift a finger except for helping with clean up which I'm totally fine with! We've had Pizza, Chicken Parmesan, Meatloaf, and Manicotti (we LOVE Itallian). Fantastico!!
I'm actually kind of excited to go grocery shopping tomorrow so I can buy things other then what comes in a box!

In other news.
I've had to put up with a lot of bugs and critters in Louisiana. Little lizzards, snakes, mice, spiders, june bugs, wasps.. and so on. What I never thought I would have to deal with was Scorpions. Yep, scorpions. There was one in my house, just hanging out in the living room. Oh did I mention I have to young children? Yeah, so glad my two year old didn't find it first. Anyways, I was so mad, you can ask anyone within a mile radius, I'm sure. This is how this happened..

Me - *slowly walking towards the scorpion (it was dark so I couldn't see well)*
"Hunny, I think that is a scorpion"
Husband - *jumps off couch*
"Turn on the light! ...yep, it is."
Me - "I hate this stupid state!!! UGHHHH I hate that I have to live here with NO CHOICE!!!!!!!!!"
Husband - "calm down!"
Me - " THERE IS A FREAKING SCORPION IN. MY. HOUSE!!!.
at this point i'm standing on the first stair to go upstairs. Because, Scorpions can't get me there..
Husband - *trying so very hard not to laugh at my little performance...*
"Well take Cameron upstairs and put him to bed.... How am I supposed to kill this thing.."

Meanwhile, he had been playing a video game with one of his friends on Xbox. Who at this point I can hear DYING of laughter through the head set.
Anyways.. he managed to kill it and take it outside. I spent the rest of the night upstairs in my bed because I didn't want to be downstairs where the dead scorpion outside my deadbolted door could get me!

So I called my dad to tell him all about my scorpion experience. He asked my what color it was so I told him (clearish, tan by the way). He then informed me that those are typically the WORST ones to come across.. Thanks

So, base housing is sending out pest control today to deal with the scorpions and mice that have found their way into my house and seal up some points of entry! Yay!


Good thing that happened over the weekend was I got to hang out with my friend Courtney, and do some photography. (I've added some of her pictures to my photography page)
It was a lot of fun.

I think that is all for right now...
*yawn* I need coffee.
