Our weekends are usually crazy busy but this weekend was over the top! And guess what next weekend is looking the same :(.
Rick was earning some great brownie points! Gave the puppy a bath, used my new shark to mop the floor and showed up with roses for me. He's finally getting the hang of being a little romantic and helping out.
Then home to for a nap and then back out we went! We stopped up at my parents house lasted about 20 minutes and my parents house which is like a museum of fine arts and antiques could no longer hold us :). 2:30pm we hit our first birthday part, it started at 3pm but we had to go early since we had another party at the same time. Of course the SeaHawks were playing and this is a big football family, so the first part of the party was the adults watching the game. Bad day for a party, but who the heck would have thunk we would be at that game.
My boys are so me and just plopped their butts down to eat :).
And we're off to a 2nd Birthday party, thankfully the game was wrapping up and we got there just in time for the cake (best part) and guess what plenty of food :)! The boys had fun, but a little at the breaking point ... hehe. But we did go overall and guess what we still had to hit the grocery store. And oh yeah I had to work my Saturday night job at 11:30pm. Oh yes it was a LONG day!
Sunday was church, home to do some cleaning, met up with Rick for lunch and then I tackled the pantry and drawers. Can I tell you I love Rubbermaid (no they didn't give me any I bought all my own, but it rocks). I do everything from the bulk section so it is best to put in a way I can see it and organized.
Ok I'm pooped just typing this and guess what next Saturday I found out we have the same thing going on except for the kids clinic so hey maybe I can get a nap in :).

ReplyDeleteYou and your family wear me out with your busy weekends. It sounds fun too. I wish I were that organized but I've started buying in bulk more too so that rubbermaid could really come in handy. Great idea!
