The Shafferland Shuffle

* Last Sunday was a very busy day. Ryan and I went to my parents' church, where he sang a solo and I spoke...and then we headed to my parents' house for a Mother's Day/Bekah's birthday bash. A full day, but a good day!

* Monday I tried wearing my hair curly for the first time...which turned out pretty well. Had the most wonderful evening with Ryan. We went to Cato to shop for my birthday outfit (yes, he went shopping with me - voluntarily) and went for a run....so I can fit into said clothes. LOL!!! Tried a new recipe and made treats for work on my birthday!

* Tuesday was my 35th birthday - and you already saw the recap of that, but I just have to say one more time that it really was a wonderful, love-filled day. My friends, my family, my co-workers, and of course, Ryan, made it a day I won't ever forget. First married birthday = AMAZING!

* Wednesday, I set up my brand new birthday gift from my mother-in-law: a Keurig for my desk at work!! She knows me so well. Bless her. :) And then Ryan and I had a really enjoyable night at home together - cooking, doing laundry, working on projects, and just enjoying time at home.

* Thursday was a busy day at work - including a BLT show in which I felt like my brain was running on a 3 second delay. Always good on live radio. Came home from work, had a great workout, and spent the evening taking it easy. Nothing blog-exciting to report. BUT - I did take this pretty cool picture. Loved the way the sun hit the plant.

* Friday evening, Ryan and I were absolutely pooped from long, long weeks, so we had date night at home. We ordered a pizza and watched a hysterical movie to enjoy some good laughs!! After we enjoyed our evening...the power went out! It wasn't storming...we didn't hear any booms or crashes...but the power went out. So we lit a whole bunch of candles and did chores!
 * Yesterday morning, Ryan worked so I hunkered down with my scrapbooking and got caught up, and then last night, we traveled to Indianapolis for game night. We had a great night - and this girl had to step WAY out of her comfort zone to play a game that required some charades. Here's how I look when I'm trying to figure out what to do.

Last picture. That's acting out the look my wife makes when I don't load the dishwasher correctly. I know she has told me many times but I still can't get it right. I even read the manual. Sometimes it's safer to just wash by hand.

This made us laugh. I will never opt to wash by hand if there's another choice - but it's still funny!! I was trying to figure out how to act out "In-laws." It's perplexing.

I like the curly haired look Bekah. And that picture of the Gerberas is AMAZING!!! Love it.

Bekah said...

Natasha - Curly is faster, and I'm starting to get the hang of doing it with the diffuser! yay!!

I knew you'd love the flowers!!! I thought of you...our neighbor was out working on hers today!
