Sorry it has been so quiet over here at Matt & Kara Adopt. I traveled for work this week and then was hit with a 24 hour stomach bug on Friday.
Thursday was total crap*, but Thursday night was awesome. I was going to post a Product Thursday post but due to some unforeseen circumstances, I didn't get around to it - hopefully I can post a belated one this weekend.
Here are all the reasons why Thursday was total crap:
1. I woke up at 6am in Wilmington, Delaware to catch a flight home.
It was freezing and there was still snow and ice everywhere. (I was there for work Mon-Wed).

| Wilmington, DE - the city didn't look this nice when I was there. |
2. My flight was delayed almost 2 hours due to engine trouble.
3. At work later that day, a woman walking across the street next to me called me a "stupid witch".
But replace the "w" in witch with a "b". She thought I rolled my eyes at her. I didn't. Geez.
4. Too many work emails. Not enough time.
However there is always redemption! Thursday night was awesome! Here are all the reasons why it was awesome:
1. Kissed my darling husband hello.
2. Got all dolled up and went to my Wives Club co-ed belated Valentine's party!
It was11 couples in their finest, eating some yummy food, drinking yummy drinks and having fun.
| Isn't my husband handsome? |
| I wore my new H&M dress. Comfortable and cute! |
3. My friend Kristina from Altogether Beautiful brought the bag I won on her blog.
She is in the Wives Club and it's been a joy to get to know her and her darling family. I was so excited about the bag! I can't wait to pair it with a spring dress and some heels.
| Ain't it purty? :) |
4. We played games and Matt and I won a prize - a free photo shoot from I Heart Photo!
| Our answer sheets and our prize! We are so blessed! |
5. We all took cheezy prom photos for fun.

Thursday night totally redeemed Thursday day! Unfortunately, I woke up nauseous and sick on Friday with a stomach bug and spent the rest of the day not working and in bed. But Thursday night's happiness is still lingering around today. I love my friends and I love, love, love my hubs.
Happy Weekend!
Side bar: I like the word crap (instead of its saltier cousin that starts with an "s") and my use of it increased about 200% after I lived in England - people in the UK used it a lot instead of "crappy".



I had a 12h thing too. So gross! But glad you're feeling better!
