Stream of Consciousness

Stream of consciousness.....literally as it comes to mind..............



1) We soooooooooo cannot wait until Mr. Bowden Brigade gets home. There's always no less than 4,297 things going on all at once and well...it's time!

2) What am I thinking when I have those feelings that I REALLY want to go back to school and want to teach? Wait...what?

3) It feels sooooooooooooooooooo good to have a gym membership again...and one that includes unlimited tanning. GTDG....Gym, Tan, Don't Judge!





4) Neeley made these Cranberry Gems tonight and they are scrumptious! #onlyhadoneipromise







5) Neeley has state assessments this week and this is HUGE for us since we don't have many assessments in this district since we arrived here late. Beddy-bye time in 20 minutes!







6) The weekends fly by too quickly. LOVING the Vitamin D we received at the City Park today! Neeley and I went and took advantage of the sunshine for some friendly games of volleyball and old school 4 square.








7) Excited that the Schwan's truck will be stopping at my house tomorrow evening with my prepaid order. Hello frozen fruit for my Tropical Shakeology! :)








8) It's almost March. Yikes!







9) I wish I had a good book to read and time to read it.








10) We're {fingers crossed} planning a trip to the beach and to Disney World for sometime this summer. #don'tevenknowwheretobegin







Time to go get some bedtime snuggles with that not-so-little girl of mine before bedtime. This is looking to be one CrAzY week for us. I owe so many a phone call, a note, an email, or a message . . . but for now it will have to wait.








Have a good one!

A Day In The Life Of A Girl

Neeley and I took a visit to our local City Park the other day. It was beautiful out but started getting a bit chilly towards the end.

Lil miss celebrated Valentine's Day in high style. :)

She's so fun these days! We have our good days and our rough crazy days, but she's such a good kid! :)

Can you believe she's almost as tall as I am?? What?? :)

Our weeks are full and our weekends are even better. :) Yesterday, Neeley began her day with the GROW program at K State-http://www.k-state.edu/grow/. They had a blast learning about engineering, math, science, and lots of other good stuff.

She had to leave the GROW program early to head over to her Junior Zookeeper training at our local Sunset Zoo. How fun!

She had a flute concert we were supposed to try to get to yesterday evening but it just didn't happen. We would have been "fashionably" late. :) It's all good, as we'll make the next one.

Have a great week! Hopefully we'll have more to post next time! :)

Happy Valentine's Day 2012

Happy Valentine's Day!

How are you spending this day? We're back to the ol' grind of back to work and school after spending the past several days at home with the Bowden version of the Bubonic Plague. :) You know...our usual sinus/cold/flu/allergy yucks. And we woke up Monday morning to about 3 inches of snow on the ground so yep...we stayed inside all day with warm mugs of tea and cider and bundled up under lots of blankies and vegged and watched movies all day. Sounds like a GREAT plan to me! :)

Today is also a very exciting day because this tall glass of yumminess is available for purchase as of today.



The new Tropical Shakeology is VEGAN and very yummy and you better know I have several cases of it on its' way to my place. :) I am soooooooo excited to share this healthy goodness with all of you as well. If you would like to try a few sample packs, just let me know and I'll give you the special hook-up. :)



Shakeology also comes in the Chocolate and Greenberry flavors which are equally as good for you. Even Neeley begs for it! :)

Other than that, we're just trying to brave the freezing temps and focusing on staying healthy.

Enjoy your day!
