Good bye January, Hello February

So, 31 days of the new year have come and gone.  I'd like to say that I have hit the diet/fitness train, but I would be lying! :(  *sigh*  However...... it is a new month tomorrow, so we will see what happens.  

Not much has happened in January.  It was a pretty laid back month.  Wade continues to work ridiculous amount of hours for Medstar and I continue to work in the schools.  It did pick up this month, not a lot, but I have been keeping busy.  

I went to a baby shower (I normally don't go to them, different story for a different day), but it was for my sister-in-law, Jana who is now 36 weeks.....so any time soon, I will be an aunt, again!  We are all excited. So, for her shower, I provided the punch.  My friend, Jackie, send me the link for this fun punch that is the latest things at baby showers,so I did it.  Here is a picture:

Baby Shower Ducky Punch

Here is the the recipie. 

 

BABY SHOWER PUNCH: 1 packet blue, unsweetened Kool-Aid (or blue fruit punch drink, but then don't add the sugar) 1 (2 liter) bottle Ginger Ale 1 (64 oz) bottle White Grape Juice 1 cup sugar (omit if using fruit punch) 8 scoops pineapple sherbet 2-3 Rubber Duckies (make sure they float - bathtub toys) maraschino cherries (optional for garnish) orange slices (optional for garnish)

It really is quite easy.  I made it with Blue Gatorade and that was just as delishious as the blue Kool-Aid or Hawaiian Punch.  It is suppose to immitate a bubble bath.  It was fun to do.

Other than that, not much else is happening.  Looking forward to a bit warmer weather.  We have had snow, but it is all gone now. :(  I LOVE snow, just not the ice.  I wouldn't mind some more.  We are looking forward to February.  Wade, Lynette and I are going to a Broadway show next weekend, we will also be celebrating my brother, John's birthday, Wade's birthday and the arrival of our nephew.  Could be a fun month.  So, until next time...adios, J
