Ahhh....

Ahhh...the soaking of the warm sunny rays and the wind blowing in our hair made us so spoiled over the weekend. Now, today it is cool and rainy, but that is okay, it will make us not take for granted the weekend we had.
Friday, after preschool we meant up with friends at the local park. Ate lunch, watched the kids play, and caught up on some chit chat. It was wonderful...I am thinking that this needs to be a Friday routine for us. The girls LOVE IT!!!! After the park we headed home for some needed naps. While the girls rested I opened the windows and cleaned our laundry room, which was in need of some scrubbing. When Matt got home we headed down to see my brother's house he is building. It is a pole barn house, it is something for him to start with and hopefully be a house for him and Amanda (don't tell him I said that, our fingers are crossed). We visited with my parents and brother for awhile then headed home for bed.
Saturday, we didn't do too much. The morning while the girls played I cleaned the master bathroom, which REALLY needed some attention. By time I got that done, it was lunchtime. While Izabelle took a nap, Matt and I mapped out our sidewalk. We are hoping to get that done sometime in May (fingers crossed on that too). Put some laundry on the cloths line (one of my favorite things to do, now). Matt has been turkey hunting throughout the weekend, but when he got home on Saturday Grace and Matt took the tractor back to Matt's parent's house. Here is a picture of them two driving:

Sunday we went to church...Listened to some AWESOME music and parts of the sermon...Sorry Shawn:( Then we got some lunch, Matt went to a bowshoot (he got 2nd place), went to WalMart, and then headed over to Matt's parents for supper. We all spent time outside with the kids. The kids did not want to come in, they were really enjoying this nice weather we were having. Once we were inside we played the Wii (I am still showing I am 70 years old), chased the little girls around, and just chatted. It was really a GREAT TIME!!!!!
Yesterday at Treva's the kids pretty much played outside ALL day!!! Poor Treva felt bad that Izabelle's arms got a little too red. But I assured her that it was okay and Izabelle didn't even notice. I am just glad that they had fun and enjoyed themselves.
Oh, I mowed our yard for the first time last night. I am so proud of myself. Matt's lawn mower is the zero turn mower and it's kind of hard to steer if you are not used to it, but I DID IT. Go Me!!!
I told Izabelle "Let's go wake Gracie"...before I knew it she was already in there and this is what I saw when I came in:

Until Next Time...

God Bless:)
