Yesterday, Jordan and I also got the barn ready at the fair since it was weigh-in day. We ran over there on our lunch breaks and then scurried back to work. The decorations are pretty simple but better than nothing. I cheated and used some of my old wedding decorations that were in the garage and could probably be pitched.
We are really trying to stay within our September Grocery Challenge. Last night we made a trip to town for a free dinner at Applebees (via Gift Card). It was really great to get away from the craziness (at home) and relax for a few hours...AND not even feel guilty about going out to eat when we have food to eat at home. It was about this time of year when we first met eachother 8 or 9 years ago now so passing through the town that we went on our first date on was so great.
You know it is true love when there is one chip left and your husband splits it in half to share with you :)
After dinner we went to the grocery store to pick up a few necessities---milk and bread. I used to say eggs in that sentence but we did get 4 eggs yesterday! Not as many as I thought we would get but enough nonetheless. We also picked up a splurge item for Jordan since he has worked so hard to get this chicken thing up and running---coke. Total September Groceries so far: $10.83. Had it not been for the coke it only woud have been $4! Aurrgh...but he totally deserves it! He worked so hard, got pecked by a chicken and still continues to be the best husband in the world!
