What a weekend...
First of all, I'm at home today because of a "Snow/Ice" Day. I got up at my regular time (thanks to my wonderful BF who calls me every morning! Love it!) and took my shower. I didn't get the phone call until 6:45 but I'm not complaining. I went back to sleep and have been enjoying catching up on all my favorite shows....especially The Bachelor and Biggest Loser!
Okay so back to the weekend. I went down to St. Charles to spend the weekend with Brian and his family. We started the weekend out by going to dinner at The Pasta House. It was delicious! :) Our next stop was Kohls (one of my favorite stores by the way) to find a "welcome to the world" present for his newest nephew Tyson. Brian was thrilled with the gift, me not so much. It was a sleeper combo set of aliens and space ships. I told him if Jackie and Greg said anything it was his fault. Darn the luck, they thought it was cute...so great job honey! :) HAHA! I have a lot to learn about baby gifts. I never know what to get infants, toddlers, etc...
Saturday morning we got up and headed to Jackie and Greg's. Let me just say that Tyson is a doll! I am so lucky to have now gotten to hold two newborns within a months time. I let Brian hold him first (guess I am a wonderful GF). We bought Logan a book and tractor to open up and he came up to me so I would read to him. It was awesome. We spent about an hour or so at the Higgins and then headed to Brian's parents. We got there a little before noon and finished getting ready for the wedding. Pam, Jason, Jared, and Jacob arrived and we headed to Columbia for the wedding. Kim was a beautiful bride. :) We went to a sports bar after the wedding and enjoyed spending time with Brian's family.
We danced the night away at the reception. Pam, Debbie, Sarah (my bday twin), and I all had a great time on the dance floor. :) I wish we could have spent more time together, but there's always the next wedding right?
We drove back to Brian's parents house that night. Jared and I slept (I think Brian was jealous) and Joyce got a picture of us. Oh boy! We got up on Sunday and went to church. Jared kept asking when everyone was going to drink the blood. He's starting to understand the concepts of church, which is great! We finally got the chance to have Christmas, except it was sad not having Jackie, Greg, Logan, and Tyson there. Jared was a great helper, opening up everyone's presents. HA!
I didn't have to drive back Sunday night, because I had Monday off for Martin Luther King Jr. Day. It was nice having an extra night. What a weekend!
I need to give myself a kick in the rear for not working out like I said I was going to. I'll try again tonight! I am doing much better with the eating part though. I have a ways to go, as I gained a little more than I wanted....but still can't complain because I've almost lost a a total of 80 pounds and have been able to keep it off for two years now, well you get the idea....haven't gained more in the past two years... I rock!
