What a Great Weekend!

Richard was actually home!! Hunting is now officially over! Can you tell I'm just a little pleased with that? It was so nice for all of us to be home for the weekend. We got some things done around here. I actually have a couple of pictures hanging on the wall, and Richard's outside kitchen is coming along nicely. They did alot of the tile yesterday.

Friday night we had a meeting at our house for Braden's baseball team. We had 10 boys and 1 little sister here that night. Talk about crazy. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to cover the furniture with plastic, but everything seems to have escaped untouched. Pretty unbelievable. I am getting very excited for baseball season. Since we didn't play basketball, we have had alot more free time, but I have missed watching them play ball.

Saturday we got to celebrate my nephews 1st birthday. What a party my SIL threw! My boys were surprised that they had such a good time. They thought they would be to old to enjoy a 1 year old's birthday party. Cade, who insisted that he hates clowns, became her favorite. Go figure, since he's pretty much a clown himself. Here are a few pictures:




So, Sunday we got a break from the freezing, rainy weather and enjoyed the sunshine. We went to church, and then I weeded the flower beds while the boys played outside and Richard started tiling the outside kitchen. I actually enjoy weeding as long as there aren't too many. You see the results instantly.

Hope you all had a great weekend as well. I don't have too busy of a week. The builder will be back AGAIN to try and finish some of the things that aren't done yet. I have had enough with all the crews in and out of the house. I know some of it has to do with our decision to move in before Christmas, but enough is enough. I have been making sure that I'm not around. Anything is better than hanging out with these guys who think they're my best friend. I think Walmart's calling my name. (You know it's bad if I'd rather be in Walmart!!!)

Have a GREAT week!!

How nice that your family was all together this weekend and that you had a great time together. I can't believe you are starting baseball already!! I guess you can do that down south. Up here the ball would get lost in the snow. Your nephew's party looks so fun! Good luck with getting the last few things finished on the house.
