rushley & crew

We had a crazy, busy weekend two weeks ago , and we just kept that vibe going last weekend. Friday On Friday my work treated all employees to Captain America: Civil War  during the last few hours of the work day (getting paid to see a movie? yes please!). Last minute they sent out an email saying they had extra tickets if we wanted to bring a +1, so I invited Russ along and we started date night early. Following the movie, Lacey called us and asked us if we'd be interested in having dinner with her and her new boyfriend. I definitely wanted to meet this kid! We had J Dawgs for dinner and Culver's custard for dessert, all while talking and getting to know each other. It was a lot of fun! I had plans for date night, but after all that talking, I was tired and it was late-ish (like 8) so we decided to call it a night. Actually, we decided I would go to my parents' house to start setting up garage sale stuff, and Russ would go home haha :) It worked out though, because t...

actually got a pic on time! 17 weeks, 5 days How Far Along:  17 weeks 5 days Size: Tangy Pomegranate, creme brulee, a game console controller, and a chipmunk! (not combined, those are just the 4 different themes I can choose from in my app, in case you're late to this bumpdate game ;) ) Gender:  It's a GIRL ! Name: Ada Charlotte :) We've had this name chosen (the first name at least; the middle name is a new addition) since we got married, and in that whole time we've loved it :) I like it because it is cute and feminine but still unique. I've never heard of anyone else naming their girl Ada, and it doesn't show up on any "top 100" lists, though similar names like Adelaide and Adeline do. I'm super hoping it stays that way, but who knows. With my luck it'll probably be in the top 100 for 2016! Haha (With my name as the #1 girl name for my birth year, I've always been hoping to gift my children with names that are...

a;lsdijf;asidjf; I hate this post so much. I spent over an hour on it and put in like a million pics and then blogger decided not to save it, so when I returned to finish it up, it had about 30% of the total. Without all the million pictures. Which means that I now have to do all that work again. I'm pretty sure I'll forgo some details. Ughhhhh...okay, end of rant. For anyone who doesn't know, Russ is currently restoring a 1966 Volvo Amazon. He likes to spend all our spare money on new parts ;) It took a while, but he finally got it up and running recently! He's even taken it out for a few spins around the block, though always when I'm gone so I've never seen it (is it really  running? hmm... ;) ). However, the car is still riddled with rust damage, so he's been wondering what to do about that. In his online searches for parts, he found a guy in New Mexico who was selling a Volvo body that was in much better shape than Russ's Volvo. Russ asked me about...
