The Shafferland Shuffle

Happy Sunday, my friends! Hope it's a lovely day where you are. This girl is fixin' to hunker down for a "scrap n nap" kind of day!

* Last Sunday morning, as I walked through the house, I found the little cone of almonds Ryan got for me at the fair. He hid them and waited for me to find them. He really does love me! We had a great day together, and that night, we split a salad at Subway, because I was still recuperating from the conference and therefore didn't have kitchen duty! Oh! And look at the pretty flowers that popped out while I was gone!

* I spent Monday working hard on post-conference chores, and when the mail came there were TWO packages for me! A really cute new workout shirt from my sister and our most recent scrapbook. I love mail! We had planned to spend the evening at home, but our friends who were getting ready to move needed some help packing last minute items, so we spent our evening at their house, helping. Ryan found this mask. Scary, isn't it?

* Tuesday night, we met up with our moving friends for a last dinner with them. We actually had dinner at home and then just had dessert when we met with them. Know what the funniest part of the day was? Teaching Ryan to say "soapapilla." You should ask him about it! It was a great last hurrah with our friends.

* Wednesday, when Ryan brought my coffee, he'd put a little treat with it! (Okay so they were Dashing Dish cookies I made, but I still loved it. This is such a fun cup.) I spent the whole day buried in Lynette Eason's latest book. Couldn't put it down! And by bedtime, my legs were KILLING ME from the week's workouts...so far. And the week wasn't even done!

* Had a HUGE treat on Thursday! My college roommate (well, one of them) who now lives in Florida, happened to be in town for a visit, and we got to spend a few hours together. It was wonderful! We needed a hundred more hours to catch up! That night, I had a Pampered Chef party to attend, so Ryan grilled his dinner and managed to knock his spatula on the ground, which resulted in my favorite Ryan face. (hee hee hee) Party was fun, too! I made salad dressing. :)

* Friday's workout nearly killed us both. I sat on the couch all day with only enough energy for Pinterest, and Ryan was pretty wiped out when he got home from work, too. Even Braeya! Oh. But wait. She didn't do anything!

* Yesterday we had such a fun day!!!! We went on a day-long alphabetical date. The date inspired by the letter N. It was all focused on new experiences, and we had many! I'll tell you more about it next week, but it included eating in some new places and trying our hand at an escape room for the first time!
