This weekend was refreshing. Just what we needed as a family.
Highlights included:
*Celebrating London’s BFF’s birthday. Jane threw a RAINBOW party and her mom went ALL OUT. Check out that cake. AH-mazing!
*Date night with my hubs. Dinner and shopping. It’s what we do best on Fri. nights.
*These two yay-hoos had a baseball game.
{Having BOTH boys on the SAME team…priceless!}
…they BOTH got hits AND runs which made us all pleased as punch.
Especially their number one cheerleader…
*Londy Lou*
* We cooled off from the game by going swimming at Grandma and Grandpa’s.
Swimming included: the kids acting bonkers, people leaving the pool BECAUSE the kids were so bonkers, and…..the boys getting grounded from all electronic devices for the rest of the day because…you guessed it…they were way too bonkers.
*Hanging out with some of my favorite girlfriends and their kids on Saturday evening. The kids played with chickens, chased goats AND had all the ice-cream and toppings a kid could desire. Thank you Kristen for hosting us all!
* Watching General Conference.
So many great talks I can’t even begin to name a favorite.
Uplifting. So uplifting.
I could hear President Monson talk for hours and hours.
Other highlights included:
*The weather. It’s in the low 70s today. Bliss. Pure bliss. My front and back windows are open in our house and I can’t get enough of the cross-breeze coming through.
* Big Sunday morning breakfast. We made THESE pancakes {they’re pretty much our fave} with sausage, eggs and hash browns. Breakfast IS the most important meal of the day, ya know?
*Easter preparations. I know I say this about MOST holidays…but seriously…Easter is one of my favorites.
Favorite quotes of the weekend included:
* Grant: “Mom…can I sign up for a Tweet-er account?”
He’s 7 mind you.
And he wants to be on Twitter.
Oh boy!
* Carson: “Mom…can you download this app for me. It’s only…..{checks iPhone}…55 dollars.”
He was serious.
* And this quote, found in one of my very favorite magazines…Country Living…
Happy Weekend Folks!
Only one more week until Easter!!

Fun family weekends are the best. And General Conference was pretty amazing (as usual).
