5 Years Old!

So today was Chance's birthday! I can't believe he is five years old already. I think despite it being just the three of us and not being able to do a party for him, he had a good day. We went a little overboard on the gifts to overcompensate the situation this year. But he loves everything, even down to the t-shirt lol. Let's see if I can remember it all. He got a big Master Chief, a Star Wars Lego set, Star Wars gun thing he's wanted for awhile now, Star Wars action figure, an UP sticker book, Night at the Museum video game for the Wii, a shirt, bubble bath, HALO poster, and some new 'big boy' bedding for his bed. I baked a cake and John did all the frosting and decorating. Chance had requested pizza for dinner so I made pizza. Tried my hand at a whole wheat dough but yuck! Not that impressed. Chance even said it was "disgusting" b/c it "didn't have ranch dressing" on it. But he put some ranch on there and ate the rest so I guess it wasn't too horrible. I made a plain ground turkey for us but since I had enough dough to make two pizza's, I decided to get creative on the second one. I made a pizza for me with fresh basil, a TON of garlic, sun dried tomato, leftover brazillian chicken that we made last night for dinner, and artichoke to go along with the red sauce and mozzarella. It didn't finish cooking until well after we had already ate a slice of the ground turkey pizza, so I put it in the fridge and will try it tomorrow.

Not much going on around here. Chance's karate school had a military appreciation day on Saturday that we went to. It was alot of fun despite Chance whining and crying almost the entire time. It's cool that they do stuff like that, and on Thursday they are going to have an ice cream social.

Last night I was sitting here bored waiting for the Dane Cook special to come on and I thought "hmm, I have nothing else to do, so I may as well start the process for school" So I went ahead and filled out my FAFSA and submitted it and hopefully tomorrow I can go drop off my application for school and get the form to request my transcripts NC. Hopefully SOMEONE will take the form to GTCC for me and take care of that. I just want to know already if I will be going to school or not so I know if I need to get my hopes up. I got an email today saying that my FAFSA has already been processed! I hope that means I didn't mess any of it up.

Anyways, I need to get back to regular blogging. Or at least logging my food. I've definitely been bad since I haven't logged in a few days. Still haven't went and looked for bolts for my treadmill, but maybe I can do that tomorrow.

I'll try to post some pics from today and this weekend as well tomorrow. I need to get this kid out of the tub before he turns into a prune.
