My 100

I have seen on blogs this thing called "My 100", so I decided to take a shot at it. It took me a couple of days to finish, due to lack of time. But now I have finally finished it. You will notice on one my favorites, I listed the Saturdays I get a lot done are one of favorite days. That was true for this Saturday. It seemed like we marked so many things off the list that we had been wanting to do. Anton amazes me at how he can fix almost anything. Last weekend, he fixed an electrical problem we were having, and this weekend he fixed our garage door. He wanted to at least try to fix it before we got a whole new garage door system - and I am so glad he did! I am lucky to have such a handy man as my husband...don't know what I would do without him. Oh and did I mentioned he got a lot of the painting done on the exterior of our home! Seriously! I say WE got a lot done, more like HE got a lot done! Also this weekend was cute Leslie's baby shower! She looks adorable pregnant and I am so excited for her to have her baby. I was telling Anton how hard I laugh when I am with this group of girls. Julie has a way of making me laugh so hard...don't know what it is, but she kills me. Thanks for the laughs! So, all in all it was a great weekend! After you read My 100 - go do one for yourself!
