A Wedding Shower

This is my 3rd time trying to post this so now it will be short and sweet!!

Sat. afternoon I went to a wedding shower for Georgia (I used to work with her @ Morgan Stanley) @ Miss Amy B's in St. Charles. Cute place and good times! Here are some pics!!!

Other than that, we didn't do much. John watched every basketball game that was on and I did some more scrapbooking of course!!!

Well, I am giving into pressure and also going to be showing everyone a little tid bit of our home every week. This week you get a few to catch up and just b/c I don't feel like waiting to post them. So here we go....

1. The new chair cushions I made last night. That is right....the seat of these 2 chairs was just wood and not comfy at all. I couldn't find any cushions that I like so I decided to make my own from some foam and a outdoor table cloth. Turned out pretty cool I think and it is much more softer on the booty! :-)

2. A real corner of the house....the closet corner. This is J.J.'s new spot as you can tell. There is a basket in the corner that holds all of our winter scarves, hats and gloves. J.J. has recently found that this little basket is comfy for his naps. If we don't know where he is, we can always find him here!!!

3. SCRAPBOOKING!!!! I love it!!! However, I am so far behind. That was until a few weeks ago. I had left off with Karl and Kat's wedding. That was in August of f2005 people....and it is now March of 2007!!! Just a little behind.....but I have semi caught up. I am now on January of 2006....so doing better. But until I decided to take another break from the scrapbooking world this is what our table will look like!

Nothing to Update

There isn't much going on in the Robus household. We have just been chillaxin' recently and it has been good. I am loving the weather. In fact we ate dinner out on our balcony last night! I feel like I should be outside playing and not at work!!! Anyone want to join me???

Here are some new pictures of Eli. Isn't he just too cute! I love him!!

At the ballpark - where else should a kid be??

With Daddy (Justin). I love the look on Eli's face here....so sweet!

Catch up

Since it has been awhile:

1. We spent a great weekend with Mom & Dad Robus! And celebrated b-days. And saw Kat's cousin Kristy!

2. Another week went by of work, dieting, and working out.

3. We had a weekend off. That means no traveling or visitors. We actually had a date night. We went to dinner and to see Wild Hogs - very funny!

4. Learned that my grandfather is going to have to have open heart surgery! Pray for him and the family! We will know when later this week.

5. My brother received and interesting injury, but it is ok. So not to worry. He is still able to play baseball and is fine. Long story!

6. March is now upon us. Does anyone else find that crazy?? It is already March 2007!!! I am ready for spring or even summer (may not that far yet).

7. What else is there??? I think that might be it. Anyone else have anything?

Happy Birthday to Johnny!!!

John's parents are on their way to the Lou as I type! They are coming to celebrate John's bday tomorrow. Happy 1-day-early 26th Bday! I love you!!!

This weeks update

I still haven't loaded the pictures from this past weekend in Nashville to my PC. I need to do that. We went to see my brother play baseball and the SNOW FOLLOWED US THERE!! That is right he games on Saturday were SNOWED out. There was only about and inch or two, but you know who the south shuts down at just the word of snow.

We ended up being able to see my cousins play indoor soccer and some basketball. Spent more time with family and then went to Maggianos (sp) for dinner. It was yummy and took us like 3 hours to eat all the food. So yum!!

Sunday it was time to play baseball. Matt ended up playing a double header and did very well (and had a homerun!!) . It is kind of sad b/c it is his senior year. John and I are going to try and make a few more trips to watch him play! Note: This picture is from last year...I think.

On the note of baseball....I am ready for it. I guess it is part of my spring fever. This wonderful weather we have been getting this week and watching Matt last weekend had made me want to be at the ballpark. It is time to hear the Budweiser Victory Song!! Here is a picture of us taken at old Busch right before the end of the season.

OK so here is the picture of the day - just b/c feel like posting a pic and I don't have any from last weekend and it is really cute. This is my brother with my cousin's son, Eli. Eli has on Matt's baseball hat as you can tell. Aren't they cute??

Snow and Cold Weather

The coldness is no fun, but I do enjoy the snow. It snowed again last night. Not a whole lot, but enough to make is pretty. These pictures are actually from a couple of weekends ago when it snowed. We decided to go play before we went to bed.....it was really cold and the playing didn't last long!
