Biggest Loser Video…DONE & A Big Stick Bug

I finally got my BL video, application forms, and picture emailed off today.  That’s such a good feeling to have that done.  Not much happened today after work.  Mom said everyone was on their own tonight.  So, Autumn & I came home and made some pasta w/ chicken for dinner and then watched Pretty Little Liars and got up and had dance parties during the commercials.  We went outside for a minute and saw this big huge bug!  It looked like a preying mantis on steroids!

I zoomed in as close as I could get and hoped and prayed it didn’t fly or move, b/c if it did I would have freaked out.  I texted a picture of it to Liberty to see if he knew what it was.  He said it was a stick bug.  Pretty crazy stuff!

We got a lot done by being home instead of going over to Mom & Dad’s after work.  I loaded & started the dishwasher, did 3 loads of laundry, and cleaned off the counters.  Autumn put away all of her clothes and picked up her whole room.  She was so proud of herself, and I was so proud of her too!  She’s been making so many big changes lately.  I make sure to tell her every day that she’s my greatest blessing and she truly is.

Liz came over around 9:00 just to get out of the house for a while and to say good luck in case she doesn’t see me before the BL tryouts on Saturday.  I’m kicking myself for not getting a picture of us together!  She’s such a good friend and we had so much fun just talking and laughing.  I’m thankful to have her in my life.
