Weekend Wrap Up

Howdy Friends:)
I have missed the blogging world and I am glad to be back:) Here is why I have had no time to blog lately:)

* Thursday we spent 3 hours of the day registering at babies r us:) let me tell you.. not as bad as I had thought.. I did have one mini cry at the bottle aisle but it wasn't bad! I also had to take a couple sitting breaks but over all:) painless!!

* We spent the early afternoon and evening getting ready for our garage sale... we put up poles in our garage to hang clothes on and laid out four tables... we worked until 1030 that night!!

* Ryan's brother came over and brought his wife and son and a deep freeze to sale in our sale:) Grant is SO cute:)At one point we were playing pirates in the back of his dads truck and Grant said "look Emily at the stars... they are so beautiful!!" Appreciating the little things! I LOVE IT:)

* We woke up bright and early Friday morning and started the fun:) Ryan is really an amazing guy... he did most of the negotiating and hard work! I sat and chatted with people and was in and out of the house!!

* I had a lunch date with my friends Allison and Teresa... We were meeting because Allison found out what she is having.......





That's right friends:) Cate is going to have a new best friend:) She is having a little girl:) Oh it is going to be so FUN having two little girls running around!!

* I headed back to our garage sale and my cute hubby was working away and even pulling more stuff out of the house to sale!ha:) He had garage sale fever:)

* After the garage sale we went on a long walk with Daisy and Halley and then showered up for a graduation party for a good family friend, Whitney:)



Here are some more pictures from the party:)







* After the party we met up with some of our friends for dinner:) Then we went and played rock band at our friend Daves:) It was a such a fun night:)








* Saturday the day was spent garage saling it up:) I took another short break and meet my mom to order Cate's furniture:) Mom and dad bought the crib and mattress:) Thank you:) and we bought the dresser and hutch:) cant wait for it to get here! And we used garage sale money for our purchase!!

* We closed the garage sale at 2 and lunched and rested before heading out of town for my cousins graduation party!!












* Sunday morning we went on a long family walk and then did a little bit around the house, cleaned my car, went to subway, and went to home depot! We were there for 2 hours!! We are going to rip out all the carpet in our house and lay hardwood flooring in the entry, living room and hallway and then new carpet in all the bedrooms!!! Plus we are painting the baseboards and Cate's room!! We are going to be busy!!

* Sunday afternoon we headed to church for two family friends Confirmation and Confirmation party!!!
Congrats Kelsey and Petey:)


More fun party pics:)










* We went to bed super early last night because I was soo exhausted from the FUN and amazing and BUSY weekend we had:)

* The reason my little brother isnt in any of the pictures is because he is in Italy... He comes home in a week and has been there for over a week! He is having such an amazing time:)

* Promise I will get caught up on everyone's happenings!!!

Happy Week My Friends:)
LOVE LOVE LOVE

You always have super fun weekends. Not I. I spent the weekend wiping asses, cleaning spitup, watching 3 year olds throw fits, wiping asses, and not showering. Fun times.

PS- I can't wait to see Cate's furniture!

Angie said...

Glad the registering went well! You had a BUSY weekend!! It looked fun though! Enjoy these weekends -they are still fun with a baby, but a lot more work!!

Sweet Simplicity said...

Glamorous Life of a House Wife said...

Looks like a great weekend! Your outfits are so cute. :)
I got the chair at Peek-a-Boo baby here in town. You definitely need to check it out if you haven't yet. It's my FAVE baby store. My husband's parents did the stripes for us! It wasn't that hard at all - then again, I didn't do it so I guess I don't really know. :) I love stripes too and it is just so much more fun than a plain color. I got the chandelier online somewhere. I just kept hunting for one that wasn't "too" feminine. I can't wait to see what you do with your nursh! :)

A Walk With The... said...

You. my dear. look SO BEAUTIFUL!!!

Stephanie said...

Wow! I love all your cute outfits. This post was like a maternity fashion show. Lol.

I'm glad you got registered!

My little brother just got back from a trip to Costa Rica. I keep telling him he needs to be a guest blogger and post his pictures and talk about his trip, he had a great time. I hope your brother does too. Such a neat thing to travel abroad and learn about other countries and cultures.

P.S. I thought about you as I wrote my breastfeeding post. I didn't want to scare you and a few other expecting moms that read my blog, so don't worry... I don't think most women's nipples squirt blood.

Brittany Ann said...

It was party central for you this weekend! Glad you had fun!

Jess said...

You are so cute!! I love the little belly bump!

What a busy weekend. Thanks for sharing.

Jen said...

I was wondering where you had been the last few days. Now I know...you were one busy chick.

I'm glad that registering for Cate's stuff wasn't all that bad.

It looks like you had a great time this weekend. I know I say this almost every comment, but really...can you get any cuter? I highly doubt it.

Glad you had a great weekend!!

jskcaesquivel said...

Wow!! What a busy time you have had!! I'm glad registering was painless!! We too had a garage sale! That is awesome that your friend is having a girl as well! Super cute pictures!!

Meagan said...

You look sooo cute! I'm so excited that you and cate have a new little bff coming!!!

Mrs. Not-so-Domesticated said...

You were definitely busy! Glad registering went well, one small meltdown is nothing! Thats a great idea to have a garage sale and use the money for baby stuff. I'll have to tell the hubby about it, he'll love it. He'd be happy with only a tv and couch...

Naturally Caffeinated Family said...
