Where Did It Go?

Where did the weekend go? What was a nothing to do weekend quickly turned into lots to do. Friday Olivia left at lunch time for her dentist appointment. Maria said she did a great job. Robin called Friday afternoon wanting to know if I could pick up our friend Leigh's daughter, Jessie. Leigh fell at work, broke her wrist and elbow and had to have surgery on both. After Bri got off the bus, we went to the high school to get Maranda. She stayed here with my kids, while I went to get Kaylee, Jessie and Becca. We had a full house Friday afternoon. I loved it though. I had already planned on getting Kaylee and Becca to spend a little time with them and had already made brownies and bought ice cream. So, when everyone got here we had brownies and ice cream. It was very yummy. After everyone left the kids and I went to hang out at the pumpkin patch with Mrs. Ellie and Mr. Joe. The kids always have a great time at the patch. On the way home my girl Shannon called to line up some help for Leigh while she is recoperating. She told me about Angel Food Ministries. You can order a box of really good food for $30, to feed a family of 4 for a week. I think I am going to order a box this month, but I have to order it today.

Saturday we went to Pineville, we are still on the hunt for clothes for Brian's new job. Thankfully his start date was moved to the 20th. We also let the kids spend their Target gift cards they got for their birthdays. Alex got a garbage truck that picks up a dumpster and opens in the back and he got a bulldozer. Bri got some Littelest Pet Shop, a puzzle, and some new books. Alex wore his big boy underwear and didn't have an accident. He did such a good job, I was so proud.

Sunday after church Bri and I had to go to Wal Mart to get a gift for a birthday party she was invited to. We went to the party that afternoon. She had a great time. I stayed at the party with her and helped the mom with the kids.

Alex and I saw Robin, Becca and Kaylee leaving our neighborhood. It totally made Alex's day to get to see Becca and Kaylee that early. Today I have got to go order my box of food, if I am going to get it. Tomorrow I have an appointment at the consignment shop and Liz and Joey will come over for supper. On Wednesday The Littles and I are going to eat lunch at the pumpkin patch with Mrs. Ellie. Friday afternoon is my conference time with Brianna's teacher. So, it's already shaping up to be a very busy week.
