Tamales, Black Jack, and a beautiful gift

This week has been good. My grandma's been helping so much with the baby. I've actually been able to just relax sometimes, or get on the computer, cook! lol... The other day, she and I made tamales. I forgot it was hard work, but it is worth it! yummm! Now I've got some in the freezer for me and Tony to eat whenever we want. We've been keeping busy busy.

Tonight Carlee and I will have a quiet (hopefully) mommy and me night, as everyone is going on the SunCruz Casino. Tony is excited about that, he's been wanting to go really bad. Then tomorrow is when the sofa comes in. I'll definately have to take a picture.

Yesterday, I got a box in the mail. It was from my best friend R who lives in Texas. I miss her alot, but our friendship has never lessened over the years. I tore off the wrapping, and saw a box of Mexican beer. "Look, R sent me beer!" I said to my grandma. She just laughed. I finished opening it and pulled out the most beautiful blanket. She handmade it, it's purple and she put pictures on it somehow from Carlee's blog. Her newborn picture, me with her in the hospital, her taking a nap with daddy, one of me still pregnant with her. It is sooo awesome, my eyes teared up, and I fell in love with it. It means so much to me, and I know it will to Carlee too when she's old enough to understand. I can't wait until Tony comes home from being underway so that he can see it. I love it.
