The weekend...with photos!

In my mind, this post was going to be called "the weekend...in photos". But I'm a slacker. A total slacker when it comes to taking photos, so instead we get "first quarter of weekend...in photos".

So clearly, we had a t-ball game. Went pretty well. The snack was mini pop-tarts and Blythe knew about the mini pop-tart snack since practice Wednesday when her friend told her about them. I think Blythe was a little annoyed she had to make through an entire practice and a game in order to get the snack.

After the t-ball game, Ethan had a birthday party to attend. I took Blythe as well so Braden could work on our deck (while Brynn napped). It was a construction themed party at the park, so they got the cool hats and the Home Depot aprons. They were excited to help Daddy with the deck when they got back, but Daddy was super fast and had already finished all the boards by the time we got home (all the boards we had...still need to buy more).

Not pictured activities of the weekend....

• Our first successful family movie night at home. Well, 80% of the family (since Brynn was asleep). We rented "Despicable Me". Cute movie.
• We had a picnic at the Duck Pond, which we hadn't been to in almost 2 years. We brought lots of old bread, but the ducks mostly weren't that interested in food. Their interests were elsewhere. Apparently it's mating season and the male ducks were very busy trying to woo the female ducks. It was quite interesting to watch as some of the males would try to fight off other males. We also saw a horse drawn carriage from a wedding that had just ended.
• We had ice cream at Ben & Jerry's. Mmmmm.....
• We went to Ginsey's birthday party at the gymnastics place. It had a big inflatable slide and of course, the foam pit, so that was loads of fun.
• Braden played in a golf tournament with some other coaches and some local big wigs and his team WON! He got a new golf bag as a prize.
• Brynn started on whole milk, so we'll finish up the formula we have and then will not have to buy anymore! Yay for saving $$$!

So an eventful, but nice weekend. Got to love a nice weekend at home sometimes.
