Happy Weekend :)

I'm so glad classes are over for this week! We don't really have anything planned for the weekend. Josh is working tomorrow and I have school work to do for next week-but next week, the majority of our big projects are due so the last week or two should be less stressful! After classes, I will have a couple weeks of a break, before my summer class starts. I really tried to avoid a summer class, but it was inevitable if I want to graduate next May! But one class isn't too bad! But anyways, I am planning on finishing the Beth Moore Book- "So Long Insecurity". My friend and I are going to a simulcast conference to watch her next weekend ( We waited too long and couldn't get tickets for the "real deal". ) Does anyone have any exciting weekend plans?

Our Weekend!

We had a good weekend. Josh's work load was minimal so we got to spend more time with him than usual on the weekends. Friday night, Josh and I watched the movie Everybody's Fine. I've been wanting to see it, but we usually don't rent movies unless we can get them using a free red box code and the last few times he has gone up to a red box, they don't have it. So, we splurged :) and rented it On Demand.I'm so glad we did. It was so good, but I cried the entire time! You know when you cry a lot, it can be exhausting? I told Josh after we watched it, I was exhausted from crying so much! I don't know if everyone would find it that sad, but my entire life, I have had this thing for older men being lonely and not having anyone! It just broke my heart that he was by himself and he had to go visit his family to see them. A lot of other little things happened along the way that were sad, but I won't ruin it for those that haven't seen it yet. If you haven't seen it, you should definitely rent it. It was good!

Saturday-We didn't do too much. Josh worked a little bit in the morning and the boys and I hung out. I did some school work that I needed to get finished for this week. When Josh got home, we went grocery shopping and then went and ate Mexican ( I had to get the chef's name for something we are doing for one of my classes).

Sunday- We got up and went to church and we tried a new Sunday School class. This is really stepping out of my comfort zone, but we joined our church a little over a year ago and really haven't done anything to get involved. I had been praying that God would open a door for us to get involved and a couple weeks ago, Josh got an e-mail personally inviting us to this young adult Sunday School class and I felt like it was an answer to my prayer so we went. I really liked it and I think Josh did too. Everyone was really nice and it's not too big and we weren't the only new people so that was good. I still am positive we are probably the youngest couple there, but I guess I just need to get used to that! After church we went to Subway and then came home for long naps. Then we took the boys to the park for a little while. We had told Hayden we would take him to the pool, because they just opened our community pool, but we have had some cold mornings and nights and were afraid the water wouldn't be warm enough, so we settled for the park! I didn't take any pictures though! My camera's battery is about to die and I need to charge it!

Easter 2010! (lots of pictures)

We had a great Easter with family. We originally did not think we were going to be able to go to South Carolina to visit, but Josh worked hard on Friday to get everything done for work that he was going to have to do Saturday so we could go! I'm glad we did! Saturday, we went to Josh's parents (gigi's and papaws). Hayden and Cayson's cousins were there and they played outside ALL day. We had an Easter egg hunt and they dyed Easter eggs! Cayson thought he would try and eat the Easter egg dye, so his lips were blue the rest of the day :)

Then Sunday, we spent Easter with my family. We went to church for their Easter service, but only stayed about 10 minutes. Since it's not our church, I do not feel comfortable taking them to the nursery because we just do not go enough and Cayson can be really funny about who he will stay with, and they just were not going to last the whole church service. They were not bad, but they were making noises and moving around and we finally just left because some of the church members were being slightly dramatic and turning around and staring at us! But after church my family came to my parents and we had a yummy Easter lunch and had another Easter egg hunt for the boys!Hayden and Cayson's Easter baskets. The Easter bunny brought Hayden a memory game, a nerf gun thing, bubbles, a football, m&m's and smarties. Cayson got a new Mickey Mouse club house juice cup, a ball, bubbles, smarties, and goldfish.


We took family pictures after church because we were rushing out the door and didn't have time to before church.

What kids say!

We weren't planning to go to South Carolina this weekend for Easter, because Josh had a job he was going to do all day tomorrow. But, he called me this morning and asked if I wanted to go because he thought he could get that job finished today. So of course I said yes. I told Hayden a few minutes later we were going to go to mimi's and papa's (my mom and dad's) later today so we needed to start cleaning up. He looked at me and asked and gigi's and papaw's (Josh's mom and dad)? and I said yes! He looked at me and said, "Mom, that is amazing!" Haha! He has been using big words lately and I think it's just the cutest thing.

He said something else that was funny this morning. He was laying on the couch watching his cartoons (like he does every morning) and Cayson went over and was talking (babbling) and Hayden said, "Cayson, shhh! I can't concentrate!" Hah!

New read

I haven't been blogging this week, because my free time has been spent reading this...I love to read and I love Jodi Picoult. It's really good so far!

Our day at the park! (Lots of Pictures!)

I haven't posted in awhile, because something happened to my camera lens and I had to send it to Nikon to get it fixed! But, this weekend was so pretty and we took full advantage of it. I'm really hoping the winter weather is gone! I have been wanting to go to this park near our house and get some pictures of the boys, so after Church Sunday, Josh and I got the boys dressed in one of their matching Spring outfits and took them! I can not believe we have not been to this park. We have lived here for 2 1/2 years and this park is only like 3 minutes away from our house and it's so pretty. The playground was crowded so we will probably never go there for the playground since we have another really nice park with about 6 different playground near our house and they aren't near as crowded, but to walk around and take pictures and even have a picnic, this one was perfect!Here's some of my pictures at the park!I was hoping to get more of the two of them, but unfortunately Hayden is my child and all he could worry about was Cayson falling in the pond...even though he was no where near it most of the time and when he was even slightly close, Josh or I were right next to him!

My boys and me!
There were people riding their horses and they stopped and let the kids pet them!
This one makes me laugh! I'm not sure what Hayden was doing.


We had a great time and I think I got some pretty good pictures! I can't believe how old my boys are looking!

Julie and Julia

If you haven't seen this movie and want to and don't like to know the endings(like me) before you watch don't read.
Josh brought this movie home yesterday for us to watch. I wasn't sure I wanted to see it when it first came out, but had mentioned wanting to see it a few days ago since there aren't really any movies out currently that I want to rent. I actually enjoyed it for the most part. It made me hungry though:) I also thought the Julia parts were kind of boring and her voice really bugged me throughout the movie. I also didn't like that Julie never got to actually meet Julia, but overall it was pretty cute. I'm glad I didn't spend the movie to see it in the theater though. Some of those recipes, I really want to try. Josh and I were both salivating over some of those dishes!
