Oh Monday's.....

The beginning of the school week, the return to reality, the long wait until the next weekend, the return to order and schedule..... it really does have it's pro's and con's. I feel like I was able to accomplish very little this weekend for some odd reason but it was a good weekend!

Friday I woke up nauseous and sick. I'm not sure why but I ended the day with a fever, some chill's, body aches, and a good dose of remedies and oils and by Saturday morning I felt great :) We made a quick trip to Treasure Chest to drop off some donations and then off to the library for some new books. Jo made some friends....

Audrey explored...

and tried to make a few of her own new friends too! There was a little boy she kept giving her ball too :)

 I finished a couple of things around the house and Nick and Charlotte were in the garage welding and cutting stuff for the farm truck.

We made it to Mass at 4:00 and had an anniversary party for his cousin later that night.

Anne and Audrey playing with dad's hat while he tried on boots

Sunday was nice day of hanging out with dad and buying him new "good" boots.  These are the ones that he picked out(I like them too:)!

Charlotte was disappointed she didn't get a pair but they are more than I typically spend on kids shoes so she would have had to use her birthday money to buy them and she didn't want to.

We had an early supper, then visited with Grandma and Grandpa for a couple of hours and home to bed with the kids by 7:00!
Nick and I were able to sit down and watch the movie 'Courageous'. It was a great movie with an amazing message. Here is the trailer if you are interested~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=i9VT_NBIVfs If you haven't watched it, I highly recommend it! The acting had a few cheesy parts but the message was powerful. I will say that I cried more than once :)

Now I'm off to start school......

Have a blessed week!
