So like the title says this past weekend was a busy one, so busy it didn't feel much like a weekend. But it was all for good reason my little princess peanut was a year old on Saturday!!
Friday was INSANE, I went to the barn in the morning to work spring then had to rush home to make sure I had enough time to get the birthday balloons before Neill went to work so I came home had a quick bite to eat then hit the road to get the balloons and drop them off at my moms, then off to get the darn birthday cards, seriously you can waste like 30 minutes just looking for the perfect card. So 20 dollars worth of cards later and I'm rushing back home so Neill can get off to work on time. The kids and I are right back on the road heading to Nana's house to get decorating the cupcakes and try to get as much of the party set up as we can! Well over 40 cupcakes later and over 60 balloons later we we're able to finally relax.. and boy did my feet appreciate the break!
Saturday I of course was the first one up. I always am on special occasion, kenzie who still was sleeping in our bed at the time was sound a sleep and from the snoring coming from Kaleb's room I knew he was sound a sleep so I did my very best to control my huge urge to yell wake up as loud as I could! I am still a huge kid at heart and get overwhelmingly excited at birthdays, Christmas things like that. I just love to see the kids reactions! So I woke Neill up instead, he and I talked a bit and then I just couldn't take it anymore I wanted her to open her presents and so I woke her up ( not my proudest moment but let's move on ), I of course couldn't let her open her presents without her brother so I also woke up the hulk boy! Luckily he is a very big morning person and is happy within seconds of opening his eyes!! Kenzie didn't really have the reaction I had hoped for when she was opening her presents but looking at it now its just her personalty she loved her gifts but she just gets very withdrawn and unemotional when shes put on the spot! A complete 180 of her big brother who wears his heart on his sleeve and gets super excited over the smallest things! Her party was a huge success, a few people I had hoped would come ended up not being able to make it. But in the end the group we had was perfect! Everyone got a long and we even got to celebrate with Mackenzie's grandparents in Texas. They even had a cake and party hats, it was the coolest thing I've seen in a really long time! They didn't let the distance between us keep them from sharing in her special day and I think is just so amazing. More great news on her Birthday is she started walking with her walker! I was so amazed to see this itty bitty little thing just start pushing her stroller over towards me! It was just way to awesome :)
Sunday oh Sunday, beautiful Sunday. It was so warm and beautiful on Sunday I just wanted to take the kids to the park or anywhere outside really. But I had a baby shower to go to. My cousin is due the middle of July and so mom and I headed out there to the baby shower for a couple hours. I was glad we went, it was nice to see her and I had a great time. Good food, good company, and good laughs. In the end we got home from the shower early enough that I got the chance to take the kids to play outside. We had to go pick up Harley-belle from Grammie and Poppa's so we got to play outside for a bit. I worked on the garden and the kids played in the sand box, it was nice. I love being outside working on the garden. Actually I just like being out side!
I guess that pretty sums up my weekend, We had a great weekend really just busy. I look forward to being to take a breather soon. Just sleep in and do nothing or close to it for an entire day. That would be just awesome!
Till Next Time!!!
