-359- Prepped

Justin was a sweetheart and started dinner for me before I got home this evening. With my commute, it makes it difficult to fit in exercising with making dinner and lunches, so he volunteered to help with dinner prep so that I will have more time to work out. That is truly a blessing because I have fallen behind and am not feeling as fit as I would like.

-358- Early Mom's Day

This afternoon we grilled and honored Justin's mom, who, as my mother-in-law, feels just like a second mom to me and not the ill thought of "monster-in-law" that so many people apparently have. I am truly blessed to have two wonderful mothers.

Chloe meowed a ton when we got home tonight. Here she is with a look as if she was saying, "How dare you leave me alone here?!"

-357- Starbucks on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet

Tonight we had our last Saturday night coffee as a trio for the foreseeable future. It is very exciting and sad at the same time, because my two sweet friends are moving on to bigger and better things... but I will miss being able to meet up like this!

-356- A Drive

Tonight we drove to Abilene to celebrate Mother's Day early with Justin's family. On the drive we encountered both rain and shine. It was quite beautiful.

DOUBLE RAINBOW! The outer arc is very, very faint, but still visible.

I thought these clouds were the most beautiful I had ever sen. They looked like they were painted onto the sky with watercolors.

-355- Hopefully the Last "Nothing"

Exactly what the title says!

-354- Peanut Butter Jelly Time

I've been making Justin's lunches for almost a year now, and tonight it just barely occurred to me that he either asks for two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or one PB&J plus one meat and cheese, but never two meat and cheese sandwiches. I asked him why, and he said it was because sometimes he gets hungry mid-morning and can eat a PB&J and it still feels like breakfast food, so he likes to have at least one of those. Well, obviously that's pretty smart - I never would have thought of that. I love the fact that I am so amazed by this new little thing I've learned about him. Here's to many more months and years of learning tidbits about my sweet husband!

-353- Table for Three

I made beef with broccoli tonight (from this wonderful recipe I found on Pinterest), and apparently it even smelled good to Chloe because she got up on a little table we currently have sitting near our dinner table as if she was going to be eating there with us... or maybe she was just planning to steal Justin's plate!
