A Fun Weekend-Recap with Pics

Can't believe it's already Sunday night, the weekend flew by, but we got to do some really fun stuff!

Friday night I had the privilege of teaching Bre's school teachers and staff CPR, that is my 3rd job, I'm an CPR & First Aid Instructor, if you've ever had a CPR class then you know the class is long and boring, even though it's interesting and I do my best to break up the "boring parts" its a very long class, Friday night I put in 13.5 hours, I'm not complaining it's a lil extra money, not much but a lil!
I did have a great group of students to work with that fed me lasagna, bread, salad and cake with a homemade icing, oh my it was to DIE.FOR! I also got to let Bre tag along as he could play while I taught, he stayed for half, he was great and quiet and played with two others! I hate being away from either of my kids, so nice to have him with me!

We had our small town festival this weekend, we went, had a great lunch, bought a cute Chevron plaque for the house, bought a Tickin' Tater, which is a fun game that holds a water balloon, kind of like hot potato, and whoever is holding it when the timer is up, gets wet! :) We played that tonight and it was super fun! I went to a wedding with EE, he was my date, it was in the middle of nap time, so the hubs stayed home with Bre!
Look how handsome my date was!

There was a photo booth, I have seen pictures of these, but never attended a wedding that had one, so we were excited to try it out! I know we look super goofy, but we had a blast, he didn't want to leave! Might have helped that Carly and Annie Sue were there, he took pics with Carly in the photo booth too, he thought it was too much fun!

After the wedding we went back to the festival to let the kids do the trampoline, jumpy thing, it was an extra long wait, and so not worth it, but hey we were cool parents for trying! Super thanks to the HUBS for going with me, twice, I like to shop there, so that's no easy task with two wild kiddos! :)

Today has mainly been a chill day other then cleaning and laundry! Here is a picture I took of my dinning room, we are trying to decorate for Fall around here, but I can't find my tote of fall stuff, the hubs said he would locate it tomorrow, here is my dinning room, the candles must go, and I need a couple of small real pumpkins for the middle of the table!
We don't have mix-matched chairs, this table seats up to 6, we only bought the 4 chairs, I'm going to get the other two now, they have to be ordered which is fine, but since mom has been eating with us a lot, we moved one of the kitchen chairs to the DR for now! The orange thing on the one chair is a pumpkin cover, found it at the Dollar Tree, but it's cute for the boys' chairs!

We also had a fun Birthday celebration to attend today, the Interstate was closed due to a bad wreck, so we took the back roads and so did everyone else, the party we were going to was 45 mins. away from our home, and with all the traffic it took 2 hours and 36 mins, the boys were great, they were watching the Ninja Turtles, I called about 3 mins out to find the park, and Braden's dad told me they were headed to the ER because Braden had fell and had a huge knot on the back of his head, so we went ahead to the park, everyone was leaving, I let the boys out to play and ofcourse stretch their legs! They played for a bit, then we headed to ER to drop off our present! Braden will be fine, so that's good news!

We got back into town and picked Nana up, she had lots of goodies for the kids, she had bought donuts, and Uncrustables, and snacks! She is always buying them something! We cooked a healthy dinner, it has about 150 cals total. Can't beat that! I thought I uploaded a pic, but can't find it now!
I had half a baked potato loaded with salsa, and Pico, a side of steamed broccoli, and sautéed mushrooms, in zero calorie butter! So I ofcourse ate a donut Nana sent! Which is exactly why I don't buy them, the kids aren't deprived we live one mile from the donut shop, and they get them about once a week! That way I only buy one for them, and none for me!

The running plaque I mentioned that the hubs made is awesome, he really can surprise me when I least expect it! I LOVE IT! I hope to fill it up with lots of running bibs! I will have one next month and I found another run that is two days after the Black Cat, I'm contemplating running that one too, it's for a good cause, the hubs is off work, so seems meant to be!

He is so creative, I love it, and can't wait to find the perfect spot in the house to hang it!
 
 
Great weekend, great family, and great friends, you just can't ask for any better!
 
So blessed!
