What A Week!

It's been a while since I have blogged, so I have a little time tonight to sum up our week in one blog entry. Luckily I take picture like crazy, so it's kinda already time lined for me!

Monday, John worked late so I fed the girls early & I so happy to say that it's taken 4 years to get this picture! Presley is eating broccoli!!!!! She has to try it at any meal we have it at and she is just now starting to like it! I am sooooooooo glad I never gave up!
Piper on the other hand is my little Mikey! She'll eat nearly anything!
Tuesday evening, I had made dinner and we were just about to sit down and eat when we got a phone call from Remax asking to show our house in like 10 minutes..... I threw lids on everything and packed it all up and John called our neighbor, Ivan, to see if we could go over there to eat and hang out. He's the sweetest! So we finished our dinner on his coffee table and watched cartoons.

After that the girls jumped on Andy's trampoline and John worked on the fence. Maggie wasn't too happy with John since he's closing up the yard. That means, she only has one yard to run around in. Poor thing.....Whatever!
Wednesday Nater came over and John worked from home and Preston movie grill was doing their kid's movie series and showed Coraline. That run on sentence equaled a long full day for the kids and great nap time!! After the movie we went to eat at Sweet Tomatoes. That is the BEST salad bar ever!
Kids being goofy!
Later that night, Richard and Kat came over. Kat watched trash TV with me and Richard helped John replace the radiator in my old truck. They got so filthy! I think they rubbed grease on each other when we weren't watching. Really......Richard had it all over him! And why did the boy wear white???? He was funny!
Geeze...I hope there are NO parts left over! LOL
The guys really had fun working on the car! It was fun to watch!
Thursday, Nate came over again. We went to the library for the morning and the kids got to buy a book and rent a couple of cartoons. One of which was School House Rocks. That Rocks! And the put on a puppet show for me.
A little behind the scenes picture....
After the library, we met John for lunch at Pei Wei and headed home for a nap. After nap time, we had a little body art time.

Presley wanted flip flops
And Nate wanted a dolphin, named Rodeo, like his mama
That night, John caught a Dragonfly for the girls to check out. That was pretty cool. We let it go free after a few minutes of awwwwww's.
And Friday we had another showing early in the morning. So we showered and had to head out for breakfast! We went to Ikea for cartoons and breakfast. YUM!
And it was such a gorgeous day, so we took advantage of the weather and went to the park.
After the park, we went home to change Piper's muddy shoes then headed to Sam's to walk around, eat samples, and have lunch.

Wheeeeew, what a long day. Even after the kids had a nap, Nate was still wiped out. He was relaxing on the couch and Piper lifted his arm up and laid right next to him. So sweet!
Maggie Bell wasn't having any one sleeping. She licked the kids back awake!
Saturday, the family got together for Kim's b-day. Why Oh Why, does she continue to pick Chili's???? I told her she isn't allowed to pick her birthday dinner next year!
Presley saw a pick about to be taken, so jumped right up into Richard's arms to be apart of the pic. Too cute!

Welp, that's my week in a nut shell.
Tomorrow starts with another house showing....Hopefully they'll fall in love with the house and buy it! I am beginning to get burnt out on cleaning every night!

wow you all had a busy busy week! I think it's great that you have traffic but 10 minutes to get out of your house (during dinnertime) must've been a nightmare!

Hey how do you set your comments for approval? I did that and it didn't work. Do you get notified when you get a comment? How do you know there's a comment? I never know...I usually just scroll through my edit section to see but sometimes I forget and end up missing comment (which I see days later).
