What a weekend!!!

In 2 words? Great but busy...guess that's 3.

Friday night, DH & I, Shay & Mark, and high school friend Doug & girlfriend Sarah went to The Rodeo. 10 bucks to see my own frigin' brother!!! I digress. Anyway, we had a great time. And I don't think the guys minded cause the beer was cheap and the eyecandy, plentiful! Ended up that my aunt Linda and cousin Maureen showed up...they got lost in Burnside heading to my place. Good thing b/c on the way home, my van got a flat and they had to drive us home. Anyway, we all had fun at the Rodeo, the band was great and we got home safe in the end.

Saturday, Linda, Mo and I went for lunch and marathon shopping. We drove to Della's work to pick up a table saw Jeff left in his mom's car (long story). Then went to Tom's in Sackville for lunch...yum!!!!! Love Greek food and theirs was awesome! We shopped at Pets Unlimited, then Mic Mac Mall (Stokes, Winners, Payless, etc.). Finally we ended up at Kent where Mo & I filled 2 carts with soil, annuals, bushes, etc., to beautify my front yard. We had a fun but busy/long day. I was spent by the end of the night. Thank goodness I slept well.

Sunday we all went to church, headed home for a delish lunch that Linda & Mo prepared...chicken stirfry. Yummers!! Then a quick nap before Shay, Mark & the kids came over. Mo & I headed out to garden. DH helped Shay & Mark do the laminate in our bedroom. And Linda watched the kiddies. Mo & I finished around 4:30. We came in and I got the bbq going. The kids were so good. They graised all afternoon...3 bags of popcorn, some goldfishies, and some hotdogs. They were cute! Especially Deylin's high pitched screams at Elmo. Oh, and Phaedra was quite the helper in the gardening department. And of course, Makayla was a great source of fun for all the kids, esp. E. Poor Shay & Mark stayed till the job was done...9 p.m.!!! I can't believe what they sacrificed for us!! We really appreciate it guys!

Monday was very, very low key. Linda & Mo left mid morning. DH & I took E to the playground up the road, just for a 1/2 hour. Then home for lunch, naps and more relaxing for the rest of the day. We needed it. Too bad I am STILL tired. It's never ending. Everyday I end up doing errands at lunch. I may give it up to have naps. :) Well hope y'all had a great wknd.
