So it is Sunday evening and we are about to start week 3! We had a good weekend with Brian being home. On Friday we had fun day! M and I dropped A and H off at school and stayed for the Friday morning assembly! Then we ran to Wal-mart (ugh!) to shop for a few groceries. Then we swung by to pick up my mother-in-law before heading over to pick up the girls from school. Fridays are half days. We all went to lunch and then it was home for naps. After naps I introduced the girls to silly string and we had a silly string war in the living room! There was silly string EVERYWHERE! We had a blast! Then I introduced another game called "who can clean up the most"! The girls fell for it! They actually had fun cleaning it up! Just as we were finishing up, Brian called and said he was on his way! So I quickly gave the girls baths and made sure everything was ready for dinner. After getting the girls to bed, Brian and I spent the rest of the evening relaxing and playing Scrabble (one of his b-day presents). He beat me by 24 points. :( Scrabble is not my forte.
Saturday, we started the morning with cinnamon rolls! Since Brian doesn't have to keep a record of what he eats on Sat and Sun, I wanted to make sure he had stuff to eat that he cannot have during the week. We got started on his laundry, which I had Brian take directly to the garage as soon as he walked in the door! It smelled like something had died in his laundry bag! I am not joking...it was BAD! My eyes were burning and I was gagging. I guess that is what happens when you roll in the mud and play in the sprinklers, and then stick your very wet/muddy/sweaty clothes in a bag. At noon A had her first soccer game of the season (so very hot) and then we went out to lunch with Brian's parents. After "naps" we went to visit my mother for her birthday, but didn't stay long because Brian had another list of stuff he needed. By the time we got home it was bed time for the girls. Since we were able to get everything done earlier in the day, Brian and I were able to watch a movie and relax! Which was nice! :)
Today started with church! Always a great way to start the week! After church we came home for lunch and a nice quiet afternoon. After dinner Brian headed back to the academy hair freshly trimmed, boots super shiny, and clothes smelling good. He left me two pairs of his blue pants for me to iron (again, ugh!). He left in good spirits and ready to face the week!
So that was day 12-14! The weekends are always a blur! Thanks everyone for all your prayers!
Blessings,
~Cara
