A Month With Us: Days 5, 6, 7 and 8

Sheesh I lost track of the days. I am sure the last four days haven't passed- its still Friday isn't it?! This whole being a wife thing makes the days pass by very, very quickly. I am exhausted so this may be more of a simple informative post rather than a deep thinking one. Though I don't think most of them are- I need to start putting more time into these. Anyhow...

On Friday we decided to make kabobs. Since it's been so hot we have been trying to stay out of the hot kitchen. The BBQ and our homey little porch have been good friends of ours. By the way, Christian is fantastic at the grill... mmm mmm mmm!

Outside eating done right at the Rodriguez residence.

Yummy cheese garlic bread. I kinda went on a whim to make it but we liked it. It has butter and chive/onion cream cheese, mozzarella cheese and garlic salt. Tasty and gooey cheesy goodness!

Christian's handiwork... so so good.

We enjoyed a lovely outside dinner. We have these big trees outside the fence that keep us nice and shady.

Saturday I ran around all day doing errands and grocery shopping. Saturdays are my prepare-for-the-whole-week day. It is my productive day. It was productive...

My To Do List... there were two pages. I try and keep the list long so I can stay busy. Its hard to stay busy (riiiiight!) so I try and come up with things- or keep up with them! Sheesh!

I would appreciate it if gas prices went back down.

I used the crock pot for the first time. It was nice to pour a bunch of stuff into the slow cooker and come home from errands and have chili! Magic!

Sunday we went to church. We have been attending Faith Community Church in Oxnard and absolutely love it. It is starting to feel like home already.

Pastor Rick Anderson's pulpit. He is an amazing shepherd of his congregation. We love sitting under him on Sundays.

Monday is work day. This is my space in the office. The office is actually under renovation right at the moment. This is not my usual desk- in fact, its not a desk. It is a big tall project table. My feet don't reach the floor. This is the transition desk so that I don't have to sit on the floor this week. We are going to get new desks, a window so I can see outside (most excited about this), and painting the walls a fresh new color. I'll be sure to keep you posted on the changes.

My time sheet that proves how hard I work :)

My coffee and keyboard are my companions for most of the morning.

Hopefully these posts will come more frequently so that they are not so long and I can focus on writing a little more. Happy Monday everyone!
