Weekend Recap

We came stayed home, we weekended, we conquered.

Or something like that. Basically we made this weekend our biatch. It was busy, full of fun, and my favorite people.

On Saturday we got moving right after breakfast and made our way to Downtown Columbus to check out the farmer's market. We finally wised up and left the pups at home, so we were really able to take everything in without trying to corral two large, yellow labs through crowds of people. Grace was excited too. We didn't bother with a stroller and let her walk it out like a big girl...which slowed us down, but on a gorgeous morning with a light breeze, slow was wonderful.

We bought local blueberries and a chocolate chip cookie the size of Grace's face to share.

Next stop on our morning trip was to a Benjamin Moore paint retailer so momma could rob them of all their paint swatches. This was a highlight of my weekend. (You know you are getting old when...) It was glorious and I have already narrowed down my choices for several rooms in the new casa. Can't wait to start sharing all of those plans.

Post lunch/naptime (a nap we ALL took), we decided to get wild and hit the pool on post. As much as Grace loves the water, she also seriously enjoys snacking in the shade. My kinda girl right there.

We wrapped up the evening with dinner at the house and D and I got to sit outside, have a drink, and watch the dogs play post-G bedtime. Love nights like that.

On to Father's Day! I took one for the team and brought Grace downstairs and let D sleep in a little. I'm generous like that. When he did come down we had a yummy family breakfast (that he cooked, haha) and gave him some goodies. We like to get moving right away and Sunday's really cramp our style since nothing opens until later, so we hit the park, which was deserted because the rest of post was probably at church or Father's Day brunch. Oops. We let Major on the playground and he may or may not have gotten pushed down the slide.

We had family pictures done Sunday evening. My sweet hubby insisted I was ruining "his day" by making us do them, but he will thank me in years to come and has already decided that he likes the pictures we've seen. Mama knows best. Duh. It was rough trying to force a toddler to smile, so posed pictures were slim to none, but we got some pretty cute candids and a couple of Mommy and Daddy, too. Can't wait to share.

Hope you all had a fun, full weekend! We basically begin the moving process today with someone surveying our house to see how many packers need to be sent and how many hours they project it to take. I need to get organized...because let's just say we are two weeks out and it looks like we are not planning on going anywhere. Fun times. :)

xo,
