Sounds like you had a FUN weekend! It was a well deserved weekend off for you!! It's good for the girls to get out every so often. Love you and miss you!
wow, I won't be showing that boot picture to jer anytime soon...what happened to the part where Mindy decided to let you drive? that part may not be funny for a few more months, according to Mindy this morning!!! SO FUN...CAN'T WAIT TO DO IT AGAIN!!!
I laughed out loud at #17. I'll have to go to "Moonlight Madness" next year! (My list of "Things to do" next year ~ without a baby ~ keeps growing & growing!)
P.S. That was #17 on Friday's list!
Sounds like a fun weekend! Lucky!
You are the rockstar of *personal time*. It was extra fun to see you spending VERY LITTLE money at Gardner's Village. Kennedy was so grown up and cute--not shy or thinking we were a little too strange. She is darling.
And for the record, those elves were so SPOOKY. Yuck.
That made me tired just reading it!
