Gramstock part 2

So.... I'm just gonna dive back in.

Saturday morning my brother and I got up early at 7. Everyone was still sleeping but see him and I get up at 5:00 everyday so 7 was sleeping in. We decided to take a walk around the golf course and it was beautiful. They sky looked amazing and it was nice just to have sometime quiet time.

We came back and got right into breakfast. My aunt and uncle did breakfast for everyone. It was so cool. It's called eggs in a bag. So here is how it works.
1- crack eggs into a freezer bag (we used the quart ones) and smoosh them up
2- add in whatever fix-ins you want (ex cheese, onions, peppers, ham, bacon, sausage)
3- drop it into boiling water for about 10 mins.

That's it that's how easy it is. It was sooo good and we got to cook more than one at a time so breakfast went much faster. Of course we had toast, fruit, coffee cake, bacon, sausage, bloody mary's and mamosa's.

We realxed for a while and then headed to the showers which they were immaculate and clean. Came back and I got Grayson ready for the day. Then we went off on a walk while the boys went golfing. It was realzing. Around 4 more people started to arive for the dinner that night.

We had flowers and a beautiful painting of my Grandma in the dinner and tent. It was really a beautiful set up. My uncle did such a great job speaking about her and there was not a dry eye in the house. We have decided that to truly honor grandma we will have Gramstock every year. She loved the family all together having a few drinks and talking so we will do it every year now. I have not prcessed how I feel about it all yet but I'm sure when I do I will post about it.

Saturday night we did a toast to Grandma and then the games began again. My parents again took the boys down to the cabin and slept with them. They truly are a godsend and I would be lost without them. Flippy cup dominated and we played for about 4 hours straight. Then we hung out by the fire and had smores.

Sunday we woke up ate breakfast and packed it up. We talked about the weekend on the way home, but we were all exhausted. It really was a great weekend to be with family and reminded me how lucky I am to have those people in my life.

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

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

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
