Weekend Recap...

Yesterday I paused in honor of my grandma, so I will do the weekend recap today. :)

Friday I woke up feeling the need to accomplish something! I got up and when I seen the weather was a breezy 68* outside (man am I going to be a busy bee when september rolls around!) I put on some shorts and took the kids out and got cracking on the garage. (more like garBage at that time!) Anyhow 6 hours and a bad cut to christopher's leg thanks to falling on his broken pedal on his old bike later the garage was and still is a work of art! I was a sweaty, hot, nasty sticky, exhausted mess by the time I was done but my garage hasnt been this clean and child friendly in a year! *cue heavens angels singing* So that was my big accomplishment on that day.

Saturday was T-ball. We had a very few show up and I think this age group just isnt into it as much as I had hoped. We did get his pictures back and they are sooooo cute!!! They did pitch hit this time and christopher was able to get a few hits in, but needed the tee as well. After the game we hung out and played on the playground and relaxed for a while. We went home and had lunhc and got laci layed down for her nap. After Laci's nap we decided to go to the lake. We went to a new area called "Victoria's Landing" and it was a LOT closer and pretty nice. The kids had a good time playing in the sand and water and we stayed til dusk and me and brian got to hold hands and watch the sun make diamonds on the water as it was starting to set and the kids play in the sand and just talk. We brought some little ceasars pizzas with us and had dinner there. It worked out nicely. :)

Sunday was another project day. We decided to paint our kitchen counters (yes, paint...) and we thought worst case we replace them in a few months anyhow since we have it planned and budgeted for when the refi happens, or they turn out good. Well....they turned out GREAT! Amazing! And waaaaaay better than my highest most skeptical expectations! So good in fact that I am *not* replacing them now! No need to! They look amazing and now my mom is going to come help us get the glass tile back splash up. And when Brian is in Chicago I am going to paint the kitchen too. The color is called "Cinnamon Spice" by Glidden. We ended the day just piddling around, adding new pine straw outside in the islands and cleaning up some.

Yesterday I did NOTHING! LOL. An entire day of nothing and I felt so lazy and bad for it last night so today I am determined to get something accomplished.

This saturday after T-ball we, me and Christopher are spending the whole day together school shopping! I am so excited!! :) We are going to have lunch out together and get everything except his shoes. Joey is spending the night tonight since he ended up having a virus and not mono and is well and not contageous. Then he is spending the night on Friday for my Bday too. He is watching the T-ball game too and then I am dropping him off on our way out for the day.

Welp, I need to get off here and get my crap done so I can get Joey soon.

Have a nice Tuesday!
