William and I were hanging out on the beach today and he was a HUGE hit. Almost everyone that walked by stopped to talk and admire his handsomeness, and needless to say I was a proud mama. One lady informed me that the Scottish Terrier is the Juicy Couture logo (am I the last to find this out?). I always enjoy hearing about the celebrity and sophistication of the breed.
On a different note, I experienced something completely new today. I saw whales at the beach. They were huge Right Whales that weigh around 50 tons. We spent the night at the condo, and this morning around 6:30 dad knocks on our door and informs us that there are 2-3 whales about 100 yards off shore. We were to sleepy to get out of bed at that point, but when we did get up they were still there and we got to see them. It was amazing! I saw their tales, back, head, and blow. Today is one day I will never forget.

My B-day is in 24 days and at the risk of sound pretentious I have made a wish list. My family is great and always asks me what I want, but I get tired of telling 10 different people the same thing over and over again. I can now direct them to my blog and they will know exactly what I want.
Here is my list.

I love my husband. Yesterday, out of the blue, he suggested canceling our cable in order to spend more quality time together. He wants to make our life simple, like it was when we lived in the Czech Republic. I jumped on the idea and so starting Monday we will no longer have cable. This could either be the best decision we have made or the dumbest. Hopefully, it will be a good one and I think it will. All the shows that I watch anyway (The Office, The Bachelor, The Amazing Race) I can watch online the next day.

Do you ever have one of those days where it feels like nothing goes right? Today, Tuesday, was one of those days. It just felt like all of the bad decisions I have made recently all came crashing down to weigh on my shoulders. Not only that but, but I feel like I have disappointed and inconvenienced the people I love most. I just need to go to bed and pray, knowing that tomorrow is another day and an opportunity to start new.
p.s. It doesn’t help that stupid Obama is on every station tonight running his mouth.

I am so proud of my man. He has been leading worship at Rivertown for about 6 months and he is doing an amazing job. He has grown by leaps and bounds in the way he leads worship since we have made the move from Faith Bridge. He is more creative, driven, and inspired. I look forward to going to church every Sunday to see how God will use my husband in new ways. If you have not been to Rivertown you need to check it out. Believe it or not, they have a lot more to offer than just a hot guy leading God-inspired worship.

We had something crazy happen to us last night. Scott and I were in bed getting ready to go to sleep when my phone rang. It was 11:30 pm so I rushed to answer it thinking it was an emergency. The caller ID said that it was the front gate so I picked it up and a lady answered. She said that she was here to deliver a package for scott and Erica Magdalein. I laughed and said, “Lady, you do realize that it is 11:30 at night?!” She apologized and said that she got lost (was she lost for 5 hours?) I asked her who she was with and I think she said Baxter Services. Scott then grabs the phone from me and informs her that we were not letting her in, but if she happened to get in could she leave the package on the front porch? She replies, “Now that I know you are both home…” Then she hangs up!
We started freaking out thinking someone was here to murder us and wanted to make sure we were home. Or she was calling random condo numbers to see if people were home in order to rob them. She didn’t call back after that, but the whole time we were on edge. Every time we heard a car drive by Scott would jump out of bed and peak out the window.
Fifteen minutes later around 11:45 our door bell rings! I started freaking out while Scott leaped out of bed, ran to the kitchen, and grabbed a butcher knife. He went down stairs in his boxers, cracked the door, stuck the knife out and asked if she was alone. She says, “Yes, I just need to give you these papers.” The crazy woman was delivering suponeas! Scott talked to her for a while and he started to feel bad for her because she was having such a bad day. He learned that she still had to go to 4 or 5 more houses! I don’t envy her because she had a long night ahead of her scaring people to death or ticking them off.
When we think about it now we laugh but at the time we were totally freaked out.
