On Saturday morning we were packed and headed to Odon. First stop was at Abbie (Raber's) house to do some picture taking. I love when she takes pictures of my kids~ and they love her and usually cooperate with her!! She had so many neat idea's and took lots of different pictures. It is great having a best friend with a photo talent. Abbie~ Thank you so much for taking their pictures! Your an amazing person and I love ya tons!! Can't wait to see them :)
After leaving there our next stop was at Bill and Cindy's. We planned a cookout for all our friends there so we had to get things ready. Cindy did an amazing job at planning the food and cooking it. Thank You! Bill got everything set up and made us homemade ice cream~Yum!! Our cookout was at 4, and several of our good friends came. It was nice to see them with their kids. There was so much food!! Of course it was really hot so we moved the cookout inside where it was lots cooler. After eating, the kids enjoyed pony cart rides, frog catching, bouncy castle, and so much more. The men played cornhole, while the ladies sat around chatting and catching up. We all try to get together every 3 months so by then there are lots to talk about!! I hope everyone had a great time and can't wait to do it again soon.
On Sunday when we woke up, Cindy had made us breakfast!! The kids enjoyed spending some time with gma and gpa. I know they weren't ready to leave at all, but we were on to our next stop.
We went to my mom and dad's on Sunday to spend time with them. The kids had a blast on the Golf Cart. Austin drove of course, which is scary, while all the other kids piled on!! They loved it. Dad grilled us lunch, and we had some fresh veggies out of the garden~yum!! After that we all just sat around by the pool watching the kids play. It was really nice.
We ended up leaving around 3:30 to get home in time for Jesse to get a few things done around the house. With all the storms that week he was working 16's and not getting home til 1130 pm then sleeping 8 and back at it. So he had a few things he wanted to do.
After arriving home and Jesse getting some things done, we all jumped in our pool. It was wonderful! The kids had fun splashing around in the water, while Jesse and I tried to clean it. There were a few leaves in the bottom of it so we vaccummed them up. It was such a wonderful weekend with family and friends!! We really enjoyed ourselves, but it was nice to get home too!!
Now it is Monday~ Jesse is back to work while we are at home doing homeschool, cleaning, and all that fun stuff!! I have decided that today I am taking it easy though. Over the weekend I was up on my feet in the heat and wow did my feet and hands SWELL UP! They were really bad. So today Jesse gave me orders to prop my feet up and let the little things go they will always be there for me later. ha ha. Yeah when they pile up!! Hope you all have a great MONDAY!!
