What a weekend it was! It was a busy busy weekend! Amber called Thursday morning to let me know she was coming home that night instead of Friday! So, she arrived home around 9:30pm that night. I didn't tell any of the kids except Brooke so they were all surprised when she walked in! Friday, we had to work so Amber stayed home with Erin and Lyndsay. After work Friday night, the girls and I went to the Horse Expo at the Birch Run Expo Center and had fun walking around, looking at everything and watching some of the demonstrations. We got pizza to take home and went to bed early for the weekend, exhausted!
Saturday we got up, exercised, and got ready to go go go again! I dropped Brooke off at Heather's cuz the farrier was there to Gent's hoof trimming. Amber needed a formal dress for the college banquet next weekend so we went to a bridal store in Saginaw and found one for $29.99 on the clearance rack but had to buy a jacket to cover the top. Still a good deal considering the dress original tag was $120.00 I think! She looks beautiful in it! Erin saw the store as we pulled in and said MOM, we found the princess store! We went in and she looks around, wide-eyed and said to me, this is my store, mom! There was a cute flower girl dress for 20 bucks but I held back! So, then on to Meijer in Birch Run to pick up a few things as well as Francisco. Went home, made dinner for a couple from church who just had a beautiful baby boy! Also made dinner for the kids who were going to a friend's house while we went on a "Double" date with Amber and Francisco. Dropped all the kids off, then went to Red Lobster and waited 1 hr for a table. But, it was worth it. We had a good time and then went back home after dropping Francisco off at his house. The kids had fun and I imagine Kristi will never be the same again:)
Today, Lyndsay was running a fever so she's been banned from church for the day only hopefully! Brooke stayed home this morning and I stayed home this evening which was a bummer cuz Amber sang tonight:( I am so tired of everyone not feeling well! Right now the boys are running around the house like mad men... Lyndsay is finally walking around looking like she might play and Erin is trying to keep up with the boys. Amber leaves tomorrow and the kids are off school thru Tuesday. They have tomorrow off for President's Day but the school extended it to Tuesday so that everyone can rest and get better. Please God, let it work!
During the week, Jeremy and I have been trying to exercise together every night on the Norditraks which has been very helpful! We kind of get a competition going at times, which is motivating! But, right now my baby is crying for me, trying to get on my lap and feels warm again so off I go to cuddle:) My specialty... Have a great week and I'll try to post some pictures soon!
