Weekend Wrap Up

Lucky me! I got a long weekend due to Veterans day. It was INCREDIBLE to have yesterday off to get to just be a normal human being again.

Friday night, the King and I hit up the other Gwyn's house (aka my sister and brother-in-law's casa). As I walked out of our house to head over there, I realized that it was freezing. And all of my "winter" clothes and jackets are still in our storage unit. Problem. The King used his problem solving skills and gave me one of his flannels to wear (he wears a lot of flannels).  We drove around waiting on our pizza to be done and found ourselves in a neighborhood that had MASSIVE houses. This got us thinking about how these people got their money, which turned into us trying to figure out how to become millionaires. Once we actually rolled up to the other Gwyn's house, Christina  my sister-in-law, was wearing Joseph's (my brother-in-law's) flannel. Must have been something in the air, making us all wear flannel. That, or we are just a huge men's flannel wearing family.

Saturday was full of being lazy, walking around the park with the King and babysitting the two cutest little ladies in Windermere. Last time I baby sat them, we watch Titanic, per their mother's request. Apparently they learned a bunch about the Titanic, found out there was a movie and demanded to see it. Well, the younger of the two (who didn't show any signs that the movie was freaking her out) has been having night terrors ever since. Oh, and while they were playing house, the younger sister said, "why can't you be a nice mom??!!!"  The older sister then said, "listen daughter, you're lucky to have a mother. Some kids froze in the ocean with their mothers!!!!" My advice: wait until they are at least 13.

Sunday was another lazy day (BLESS the lazy days!!) of church and movie watching. Also, the King and I got into a really silly argument late at night. I honestly cannot even remember what it was about (see, we aren't perfect!). Well I decided that I was going to go blow off some steam next door to our house, at the park. At midnight. See, we live in this nice area, next to Eatonville. We get some shady people walking through. I got spooked at one point (well, because I was sitting in a dark park alone) and as I was walking back to the house this guy in a hoodie tried grabbing me and kept saying, "hey little mama, you got a sec?" I yelled, "NO!" and ran back into the loving arms of my husband. Why I walked away in the first place, who knows. Home (and safety) is wherever I'm with him.

And finally, yesterday, my sister, niece and mom came to visit me. For like the first time ever. We hit up Panera for lunch, Ulta for makeup, the park next to my house to play with my nieces and Jeremiahs for some dank Italian ice. 

I cannot get over having my weekends back! They are such a needed break from the weekly grind.

What did you do this weekend? Anything I should totally be jealous of?? 

Also, for all the BBC (Blog Book Club) readers out there, don't forget that we are reading "Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn! Can't wait to video chat and link up at the end of the month. Also, email me or comment with your email if you'd like to be added to our email list (trust me you do).
