Play Date!

Today we met Heather with Ryan, Trevor and Blake, Esther with Ethan and Owen, Jessica with Blake and Keira and Sara with Luke and Colton at the Foley McDonalds to play together and eat a very nutritious lunch :)! I know, I know we are totally sane to be doing that right?
I am very tired after getting back from 2 1/2 hour play date and I didn't even play!!! But I sure did eat! HA!
The kids really did like all the time they got to spend together - even though there were a few crying episodes and at one point one of them had his pants off....won't mention who that was! But it was hilarious, hilarious for everyone except the mom of that crazy little boy!!!
Esther and Sara are a blast to be with and make being a mom so fun! And I never miss a time with my sisters so it was a great play date!

Preparing for Graduation!

Garrett is graduating this May and since I am the self-proclaimed scrapbooking queen, I have been nominated to help him with his graduation mementos and pictures. He came over yesterday to go through the pictures and figure out how we were going to display everything. Even though we live so close we hardly ever spend one on one time together and this day was special. I made marinated grilled chicken breasts with oven roasted potatoes and it was delicious! It's very hard to compete with my dad in grilling but Garrett kept complimenting me so maybe, just maybe I can grill as good as my dad! :) We spent alot of time talking so there is still quite a bit to be figured out but we had a great time doing it. We ended the night with raspberry chocolate crumb bars which where heavenly! I think there is gonna be a few more times to come before the whole graduation party is planned.......

We Are In The Clear!!!

The last pox has scabbed over! We are now welcome into the world! I don't know what to do first but looking at my calendar for next week, I can tell that I haven't seen anyone for quite a while! I really need to go grocery shopping so I'm sure that will be the one of the first stops that I make. I cannot relay how happy I am that the normal life is almost back! Can't wait to see everyone!

Matt and Jess moved!

Today I went to my sister Jessica's house to help her move - from the top floor of her apartment to the first floor of her apartment - really, straight down the stairs. Mom Henderson watched Taylor for me since I was going to be helping paint the rooms (hers and the kids'). The nice thing was that we were able to just go down the stairs and put things away in the new apartment - no packing required! The set up seems to be so much nicer and I am so happy for them because now they will be able to let the kids play out on the patio and grill. It was a busy happy day but it was very fulfilling!
