Hey loves. Happy Wednesday. These weeks keep flying by. I start this post then never get back to sharing it until later than I wanted.
How was your weekend? We had gorgeous weather and spent most of the time outside enjoying the days before it gets chilly next week.
I am linking up with Sarah and Holly for Hello Monday.
Friday September 25
It's Dolly Parton day so we had to wear pink and to a mini photo shoot. When I say mini there is about 20 photos on my phone all with different poses.
One day she won't let me take a million photos.
My monthly wellness box came. I attempted to record a video for youtube and instagram but my sound was messed up.
I had all the running to do- USPS, UPS, Dollar Tree, Aldi, and a stop to Starbucks.
Anna had a coughing fit at school and got sick so I had to pick her up. Beyond a cough she is fine.
I picked up Ella from school, then went and got my nails done. I had an appointment with our neighbor for a mani and pedi. Ella watched her siblings until Brian got home. Brian got home then Ella's dad picked her up.
After our nail appointment ordered pizza for everyone while the dads prepped for a big yardwork day and the kids played. We had dinner, relaxed and enjoyed playing Rummy. We finished a game we started a while ago and I won. Then started a new game.
Saturday September 26
The dads were up and out the door by 730 to head to Home Depot to pick up the dethatcher (i think that's what it is called) to do both of our yards.
It started off as a chilly morning. Anna dressed herself. She is loving wearing jeans and a belt. We are struggling with finding jeans that are long enough but also fit in the waste, even the ones that you tighten from the inside are to big.
Brian spent the day doing yardwork. The kids played with their friends most of the day. I finished my cleaning list from the day before and a little relaxing and reading a book.
Brian planned a date night. Our kids had a sleepover planned at Grandma's and we did a little shopping and dinner at Crocker Park. It is not everyday you see a Lambo. I will always be a true and true luxury car girl.
We went to Wild Mango for dinner. The food was delicious, the service was horrible. We had horrible service when we last went there 5 years ago and decided to give it another shot. They were understaffed, no one comes and checks on you. We waited over 15 minutes before we asked for a server to just have our drink order. Brian asked for boxes at the end and it took another 15 minutes. (calamari appetizer)
We had reservations and so did the large parties that were their excuse for slow service. (honey chicken)
Brian had some scallop dish that was delicious too. After dinner we walked around Crocker Park some more than went across the street to Kitchen Social for another drink before heading home.
Sunday September 27
Early morning. We grabbed the kids by 830. Anna and I went to church. Austin and Brian had their last baseball game of the season. Anna had fun dancing at church and Austin had a good last game.
While we waited for the boys to get home I baked two loaves of bread. The boys got home changed and we hit the road for a fun day out. Austin and Anna both took little naps.
A fun day at Cedar Point. We didn't go this year as much as we had hoped. There is still a month left to get some more amusement park fun in. I love Halloween time with their Halloweekends and all the cute displays. (this is all made out of pumpkins)
We don't usually do as many rides due to longer wait times with less staff. (All the international students and college students are back at school) The kids did trick or treating, we walked around and looked at the decorations and grabbed a few drinks. I got a delicious Witches Brew (vodka, blue Curacao, lime juice and back salt)
They had a cute little haunted house for the kids.
Anna has always loved this troll as we call it, they call it an Ogre.
The girls had the BEST DAY EVER they are both tall enough to ride the lady bugs (really called beetle bugs) without an adult.
We had a fun few hours at Cedar Point. The kids rode a handful of rides each. We ended with a walk on the beach aka the kids running in the water and getting wet then driving home without pants on but covered up with blankets. (They are happy I always have blankets in the car) It was a gorgeous full moon on the drive home with the man in the moon.
Thank you for stopping by!!!!! If you are new here,
