Well today is Sunday and has been a very fun-filled day! We celebrated my Mom's b-day this weekend and today is her actual birthday! Happy birthday momma! I love you.
This has definitely been a busy weekend, but a fun weekend. I woke up Saturday morning and headed to the Community Closet to work with Hannah, because Ty had to work this weekend. Then after that since all my sisters were home, we went to the Bent and Dent in Augusta and afterward went to the Woodshed. My mom got to do whatever she wanted all day. Hannah and Matt Riley tagged along with us and we were able to get some great deals at the bent and dent on cereal and other fun non-perishable food items. If you haven't been, you should get directions from Ty to get there and go! Its a great way to save money and see a very different culture living among us. After we drove back to Eau Claire and went to Pier One while my dad went to "run errands" as he called going to buy my mom's birthday present he had forgotten about.
The next stop was Sammy's Pizza! My mom LOVES Sammy's Pizza. She thinks its the very best ever made. we filled up on Pizza and then it was time to go home for presents and cake. It was such fun to have everyone home for a weekend. As my mom would say, "I love it when the house is full again." After playing a game of Scene It, it was time to open presents. YAY! Mom, never gets new clothes so we got her a gift card to her favorite store, Coldwater Creek. After accidentally dropping the ice cream cake in the freezer, we sang Happy birthday and gorged ourselves on the best cake for birthdays.
Per mom's request, it was game night the rest of the night playing Taboo and Scattergories, and a game we like to call Smart Butt. Mostly I just watched, but Ty had a blast playing games, it was hard to get him back to Perrenoud's to sleep that night. Then Sunday My mom's parents made the trek from Rochester, MN to see everyone on one of the few times a year when they are in one place at a time. Now that things have settled, it is time to hit the books. I am writing lesson plans for a unit on Don Quixote de la Mancha. What a fun night...NOT! Oh well, at least I will be in good company with Hannah Riley! (thanks for letting my use your computer~)
As I am sitting here writing this Ty is getting pretty pumped. The Packer/Viking game is going to be starting soon, and he is there. What a day, what a day! He was so excited that he could hardly wait to leave and drive over to Green Bay. Now, I wait. Hope the games is fun and we will be driving home afterward. Pray for safe Travels....its going to be a late night!
