Beggin' Strips-Deal at Publix

Graham doesn't get treats unless they are on sale.  I generally stock up on treats when I can get them for free (of course!). 
Yesterday (the sale might end today) Publix has Beggin' Strips buy one get one free (2 for $3).  Publix also has several Publix flyers with coupons.  One of the flyers (I think the green one) has a coupon for $3 off any one Beggin' Strips. 
So, with this coupon and the BOGO, you'll get two for FREE!

*my Publix doesn't leave the flyers by the doors like most Publix.  You must go to the customer service desk and ask for one.  They will only give you one (bummer!).  I think I'm going back today to get two more bags for Graham.  He love Beggin' Strips!

Fallen in like

The Mr. and I have had a long journey with the current house we live.  Last year this time, we didn't have a kitchen.  In fact, it looked like this.

It was really hard for me to "fall in love" with a place I couldn't even walk bare foot around (a place you pay a mortgage on, and it looks like this; gets you really bummed).  The Mr. put many hours of blood (literally...a jig saw cut his leg), sweat, and (my) tears in to this house to make it our home. 

The Mr. and I were "lounging" in the pool on Sunday looking back at the house remembering this time last year.  Honestly, it wasn't the best time in our lives.  I was extremely unhappy, and while cleaning the pool last year (we didn't lounge at all last year), I looked back on this house as a HUGE mistake and just wanted my old life back.

While I have not "fallen in love" with this house, I certainly have "fallen in like" with it.  When we purchased this house, we really liked the idea of a pool and being able to entertain (although, we probably won't have another pool...).  We also liked that it was an older home and it has some charm to it.  This weekend, we really got to enjoy the house.  We had folks over on Saturday for a little pool party, and on Friday I got to pick some flowers and make an arrangement.  These little things make this house feel like home.

Our seats are in turn 2, so we see turn 2 & 1 and the back straight away. 

The best seats in the house. The Mr.'s family has had these tickets since the 50's.

Yes, we got to see all but the last wreak!

You Got A Minute?

This one-minute sermon was emailed to me a few weeks ago.  I think it is a great way to start the day, so take a minute and listen to the "bottom line!"
