Another Busy Weekend

Whew! I love a good 3 day weekend like the next girl, but boy was it a busy one!!

Saturday I did some laundry, cleaning, and I think I may have taken a nap. I can't remember anymore!! Then Mom & Dad came down to visit.

Sunday, Sean's mom, aunt & sister threw me a family baby shower. While Mom and I traveled back to Panora for it, Sean and Dad hit the golf course... imagine that!

The shower was very fun!! I learned a few things... Sean's grandma can spit a plastic pacifier farther than me with false teeth; my circumference is 12 squares of toilet paper at this point, and Sean's cousins wife is very knowledgeable at all other baby shower games.

Here are some pics of the fun we had. Enjoy!

Me with my cake & presents.

The oh-so-yummy Kandis cake :o)

Babies made from Play-Doh.

Me and my sister-in-law Mandy.

After the shower, Mom and I did what most normal red-blooded American women do... we went shopping! Picked up some new shoes that *ahem* are very teacher-like (Clarke's... YIKES!!!) but very comfy :). Sunday ended with a trip to my FAVORITE steak place... Texas Road House. Mmmm-mmmmmm I love the rolls & butter. Nothing better!!

On Monday, we hung out, did some weed pulling (well, Mom did that while I stood back and helped watched), washing the window paint off my van from Friday, and a trip to our favorite family store... Menards.

We also had the chance to talk to Owen, Jason and Ann on Skype to wish Owen a great, big Happy 2nd Birthday!!! Can't believe that little bugger is already 2!!! Where has the time gone?!?!??! He was pretty cute dancing to his nifty Handy Manny musical birthday card, and like any typical red-blooded American boy, he threw the clothes to his Daddy while scrounging around the boxes for the toys. HA!!!

Here is a picture of him I stole borrowed from Ann's website...

All in all, I'd say it was a busy, but fun weekend.
