Weekend Happenings!

We finally made it to our first softball game of the season! Sadly - no photos were taken because I was exhausted running after three toddlers going in every direction other than the one I wanted them to go in! They had so much fun though and that is what matters! And to say they were extremely filthy is an understatement!

We had a Yard Sale. While being in the front yard, I finally wanted to take the time to plant my flowers that were dying waiting to be planted for weeks, but again, didn't get around to it! I will be doing that THIS week! However, on the yard sale, I made almost 300 bucks! I'd say that wasn't too bad for a Saturday morning! Also, after I packed up my stuff, my MIL and I headed out to some of the other yard sales and I found a wall mounted white metal gate for $6 bucks...retails for $60!

We set up the girls little pool on the deck that my MIL got for them from a neighbor, which to say they LOVE it, is an understatement! These girls of mine are obsessed with water, sand, dirt, mud, mulch...anything they can scoop, throw on their heads and make a mess with! (However, Natalee, is the OPPOSITE! She is a diva and does NOT like to be dirty!) To bad it's suppose to be rainy and a little colder this week!

We went on a date! Kinda a funny story though! We had an Outback gift-card that my parent's gave Tim for his birthday, so we enjoyed an AWESOME meal there and watched the Kentucky Derby. It was seriously one of the best meals I have had in a looooong time! And then we stopped by WalMart to pick up some cheap candy before hitting the movies. I mean, what is a date if you don't go by WalMart? Ha, anyway, we finally found a parking space and headed to get into the super long line at the theaters. Mind you it was prom where we live that evening, so we figured it wouldn't be super crowded with teens...yeah, guess again. It was packed. Like, line out the door packed. And we have had these movie tickets for 2+ years... seriously, they were bought on 01.04.2010! But oh well. We got up to the counter and said we (I, Tim had no choice on this one!) wanted to see The Lucky One and the lady said, "I don't think it is playing due to technical difficulties," and I said, "well is it or isn't it?" and she said, "it isn't!" BUMMER! I may have seen a smile on Tim's face. I was pissed though. We never get to get out by ourselves and we finally do and the movie I have been wanting to see isn't playing and then all the other movies were sold out until after 10PM. I don't know about you, but that is waaaaay past my bedtime with four kids that get up early and need my complete attention all day. Ugh, so were ran a few errands and went home. We caught up on shows on the DVR and ate our candy. Still a super fun evening.

And then on Sunday, we did some MUCH needed relaxing and enjoying some good family time! Complete with lots of laundry, catching up on more shows and cleaning. SO thankful to my wonderful hubby who scrubbed all the floors on the main level and vacuumed the whole house! It's okay to be a little jealous...he is awesome!! We also hung some more stuff on the walls that have been waiting since we moved in to have their permanent place on the walls!


It was a great weekend and hope you had a good one too!

  2. That's awesome! I'm hoping to start yard-saling in the next couple weekends! It's the way to go for toys and baby things!
