Stupid Swine Flu!

Turns out the week ended better than it started! Friday night was fun because we had Jeremy's family over for dinner (Mom, Dad, his sister Allison, our brother-in-law Ben, and nephew Carson). I felt a bit like a chicken with my head cut off because after getting off work at CV, I ran to the store to grab supplies for dinner and then had to quickly put everything together for the meal. I made crescent chicken, salad, and cut up strawberries. I was so thankful for Allison because she showed up early and helped me do a quick cleaning of the house...I am SO appreciative of her! Anyways, dinner was good and we had fun spending time together.

After dinner, we watched "Marley and Me." It's my favorite book, and Jeremy gave me the movie for my birthday. Such a great movie! If you haven't seen it, you must!!

This morning I had some girls over for a Mary Kay color party while Jeremy was away at fire academy. We had fun trying on make-up and learning some new techniques. Then, we were planning on going to Ikea tonight after Jeremy got home. I want to get some book shelves and supplies for our office (still workin on putting that room together!). Unfortunately, when Jeremy called to see what time they closed, they told him that Ikea stores are closed due to the SWINE FLU!! Can you believe that? I mean how crazy is that?! I am not worried in the slightest about this stupid flu, and I am certainly not going to just sit at home until the whole thing passes over. How lame! I just hope they aren't closed for long...I was looking forward to the new stuff that I was planning on purchasing!!

Hope you all are having a fabulous weekend and thanks for all the kind words regarding the last post! I really appreciate my friends and miss those of you that aren't close enough to see very often. I'm going to try to talk Jeremy into going out to dinner and maybe shopping somewhere else?? I was set on going out, so we'll see!

Adios, Britt
