Three Day Weekend

I'm enjoying the last day of a wonderful three day weekend today.  Somehow I managed to make it through the school year without using my personal day, so I'm using it today.  Then I only have four days left of school.  I'll admit I have mixed emotions about it.  Don't get me wrong.  I'm more than ready for Summer Break!  But at the same time, I'm going to miss this group of students.  They have been absolutely wonderful.  Smart, sweet, and well behaved. 

Last week was exhausting so I started my three day weekend with a nice long nap Friday afternoon.  I woke up long enough to go grab some dinner with the husband and then went back to sleep.

Saturday morning I got up and got ready to head north to see my family and celebrate a few birthdays.  Within a few days of one another my two little cousins, my little brother, and my Mommom all celebrate birthdays.  I really enjoyed getting to visit with the fam.  Unfortunately I didn't take many pictures.  Too busy visiting I guess. 

Speaking of my little brother...he's engaged!  Yay!  Excited for him and my soon to be sister-in-law. 

Yesterday the husband and I decided to take Liberty for a walk and to the dogpark.  We walked about 3.5 miles around the river trail, up the Big Dam Bridge, and to the dog park.  It was a good little workout for us girls.  At the 2 mile marker, Andrew decided to run back to the car (apparently we girls were too slow) while Lib and I walked on to the dog park.  There were four other dogs when we arrived at the dog park and let me just tell you Lib wanted nothing to do with them.  She was little Miss Antisocial.  All she wanted to do was sit in my lap.  

We left as soon as Andrew made it to the dog park with the car.  We grabbed some lunch and came home for a nap.  Last night we went to eat at Casa Mexicana and had sno cones for dessert.  We came home and played three games of bean bag toss in the back yard.  I lost all three games. :(  Poor Liberty did not understand the game.  She couldn't understand why we were throwing things and she wasn't allowed to fetch them. 

I slept in this morning.  It was nice!!  Once I was finally up & dressed I headed north to visit with my best friend from high school, Mandy & her new daughter, Macy.  it was the best visit.  I am so thankful for a beautiful Christian friend like Mandy.  We go months without seeing each other and when we do we talk like we never missed a beat.  We talk about any and everything.  I love it!

And Macy?  Oh my!!  That is one sweet little girl.  She just laid on my chest sleeping for close to an hour.  It was the best.  Little girl made me have a serious case of baby fever.  She is just too precious.
