Monday thoughts...

 I've decided the state of my home on a Monday is a good indicator of the type of weekend we had.
Monday mornings that start with a clean home and laundry up to speed means we spent the weekend home.
Not a bad thing. 
I love being home :)
But typically we didn't go anywhere or do anything thus giving me time to do housework.

Monday mornings that start with a messy home, unpacked bags and laundry piles the size of Mount
 Everest indicate a great weekend of going and doing :)

We had a last minute one of those weekends.
On Friday Trav called me from work telling me to pack our bags we were headed to the city
for a last minute date night.
His mom is always so gracious to watch the kids last minute!!!
Thankyou Tricia :)

We started the night off with dinner at our favorite mexican food restaurant.
The restaurant was located near the hospital where my babies were born.
After dinner we decided to walk around the hospital awhile.
Annnnddd we may or may not have found our way up to the baby floor to peep in the
windows at the newborn babies :)
I seriously could stand there all day watching them!
We had so much fun reminiscing about when each of our babes was born :)


 
On Saturday we started off with a yummy breakfast with the kids' Nan and Pop.












 
And ran a few errands...
including a haircut for Colt and Target.


 
After a busy day of going and going we headed back home.
The weather has turned super cold here which I am loving!
Trav started a fire when we got home and we all curled up with pizza and a movie.


 
These are my favorite frozen pizzas from Walmart.
Have you tried them?
$4.95!



 
Sunday morning we headed out for church bright and early.


 
After church it was home for naps and then relaxing.
I happened to check the weather (which I never do) and saw that we
were forcasted to get our first snow of the season!
We woke up this morning to the TINIEST amount of snow.
You had to squint to see it around the trees in our yard.
But at least it was snow :)
The kids were so excited!





 
The plan for our day was to be cozied up all day working on laundry and house cleaning.
After breakfast I had settled all three down in front of a movie while I got ready to hop in the shower.
Right as I was getting in our electricity went out.
:)
 
 


We ended up hopping in the car and heading to town.
A trip to Sonic and the library were the perfect time burners until it came back on!









 
We're back home now.
The electricity is back on.
Kids are all tucked in for naps.
It's time for me to catch up on my Monday chores :)
How was your weekend?
