An unexpected weekend

I had plans... big plans to do nothing. Well my version of nothing which was just relax Friday night, pick blueberries and get my nails done on Saturday and then Sunday was going to be a marathon cleaning, laundry, freeze my fruit day.

Well what is it that they say you make plans and God laughs.

Friday I got out of work an hour early ( it was AWESOME!!!) I picked up G from daycare and called my momma on the way home. She asked what we were up to and I told her that Michael was going to head to Hamlin Beach to see Chris's sister who was home from Long Island. She being the most amazing woman said bring Grayson to my house and you go with him. It was a nice surprise date night and we had so much fun.

Saturday Grayson and I got up ate breakfast ( well I had coffee!!!) and got dressed for his first ever blueberry picking!!! My mom, sister and myself have been blueberry picking at the same u-pick place for the past 11 years. I love this little tradition of ours and it was so special to have my boy with me this year. Then my mom kept G while I went to get my nails done. Michael picked him up when he got out of work. I stopped at a benefit for my Uncle's friend to do the Chinese auction. I bought 2 sheets of ticked for the baskets, and then they had big ticket items. So I bought 5 tickets for those. Well I ended up winning a motorized Harley Davidson bike for Grayson (when he gets older) How cool is that!!!! So it was well worth the $20 I spend on tickets.

Sunday remember was supposed to be my cleaning day yeah that so did NOT happen. I went canoeing with a huge group of our friends while my poor hubby worked. Grayson was with my sister who said she need G time and that is the only reason I went. It was so much fun!!! We may have tipped 4 times but it was so worth it. I had a fun weekend but now I need to kick my butt in gear!

We leave for camping on Friday and I have to pack 91665218 bags because traveling with a 4 month for a weekend involves taking everything but the kitchen sink.
Writing this post I realized that I have a great family and life and I'm beyond blessed!!!

What's Up Wednesday

I love when there is prompted writing. About everything! Linking up with Mix and Match Mama ! What we are eating Chicken and lots of it. My husband makes the best chicken quesidilla's ever. He uses taco seasoning (homemade to avoid a ton of sodium) and whole wheat tortilla's. I love them we have them at least once a week! What I'm reminiscing about Our anniversary trip last year. It was so much fun just the two of us and I know we won't be doing it this year because our focus is paying off debt so it will be a date night. I love Cleveland and loved the Rock n Roll Hall of fame! What I'm loving Real Housewives of NYC. The B is back and I love her! What we've been up to Family time and organizing! I got my closet almost all cleaned out and Grayson's is pretty much done I just need to pick up a few more bins to pack away old clothes! Spring cleaning at it's finest! What I'm dreading Michael play...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...
