The wonderful wine weekend

I had an awesome weekend so awesome that I thought about calling in today but being a grown up won out.

Friday- We did our normal pizza for dinner and just relaxed. I was (and still am) battling my head congestion so I just lounged and watched some TV.

Saturday- My sister came to pick up Grayson to head to the bring you kids to the library day. Halli works there so she asked if she could take him and I said of course because then I could get some things picked up and a shower. Once they got home it was lunch and nap for the little guy and wine about winter for us girls! My Dad came and sat with G until Michael got home.

We had the best time! for $20.00 we got a wine glass, early admission, and 30(!!!!!) wine tastings. Plus free food and a ton of fun little giveaways. We had a ball. We walked probably close to 2 miles to get to all the stops but once we were about 10 tastings in you didn't notice it. The weather was good for winter in WNY and we found out that they sold over 850 tickets. For our little town where graduating classes are about 100 that is a lot of tickets and we decided to make it an annual thing! Here are some pictures from the event and after when we picked up the best chicken fingers to take home to Michael

Sunday I woke up with no voice and to a snow storm. So we decided to stay in and just hang out. I washed the sheets vacuumed the floor again went through some random boxes and then just relaxed. Michael came home and it was just family time. We made forts, played toys, read books and watched a movie. I loved everything about this weekend.

This week will be an adjustment week because Michael is now on 6 day work weeks for a few months, so we will be trying to find our groove.

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
