A 3 day weekend....

Erin had a good friend getting married in Arizona. So Jon sent her off for a 4day get away. I watched my babies Friday and had so much fun with them. Issy was fun, she has a thumb sucking thing. I pulled her thumb out of her mouth and said "Why are you sucking that thumb?" She stuck the other thumb in and said "because it's tasty." That made me laugh.

Elizabeth is a whole lot of fun. She is getting such a strong personality. And best of all she is really liking her grandma! Of course it has nothing to do with the fact that I fed her a Shrek green filled twinkie:-)

Mike and I found ourselves alone Monday. So we went on a date, we are behind a few from my time in Gilmer. We went to this cool Chicago Pizza Place, we figured we could eat a salad. But they told us they could make their thin crust really thin. They did and the pizza we got was so great! They actually say they make Chicago Style the thick stuff like we got in Chicago. We couldn't eat that, it would make us so sick. But one day we will try it and see if it compares! In the mean time. When we are craving pizza we will head back for sure! Plus I went to a movie that told me how Robin Hood became an outlaw, not bad it was the pre-story. We also saw the video game epic movie this weekend. It was constant action, It was good, but it made me tired!

 

When we got home our neighbors had little neighborhood barbeque. That was really nice because it let's those of us without family close to get together with other people and have a little fun. We are truly blessed with our neighbors, we have some great ones!


Today I discovered that I am an awesome gardener. I headed out today to survey my garden with all the scary weeds and such.  I found lettuce, and cilantro just growing away among the weeds! It was exciting!

Of course my back is really hurting from pulling all the weeds, blah!
