What a great weekend!

We had a great time spending time together this weekend! My mom and dad also returned home from a trip to Cali! Lucky dogs. Steven and Bryce were so so happy to see them! Saturday we headed to huntsvegas for a cookout at one of Blake's good friends. I love his wife and she has older kids too so it is always fun to hang out with them. Although, we realized that our family has not been at their house in 3 1/2 years! I have got to do better. Before we went to their house we went to my favorite store, Kirklands. I have been wanting to decorate better in the house and I had a coupon (I will blog later about this) so off we went. I found a bunch of great stuff and the house is starting to look as if people live there. Here is a picture of my mantle. Blake does not like the paintings on there but I love them.

After such a great weekend we headed to bed early on Sunday night in anticipation of the coming work week, only to be woken up around 1AM with a stomach bug. Thank God we bought this house because our old house only had one bathroom and both of us were sick allllll night long. It has been a rough week so far. Blake just today returned to work!
