Weekend Wrap Up

These first couple pics were actually from last week. Darrin and Miles had the opportunity to spend the night with Crystal and go fishing with one of Darrin's coworker's sons. They text me at 4am to say they couldn't sleep, so they went to get breakfast. I guess they thought I didn't need to sleep either. I let it pass and told them to have fun even though I was up for the rest of the day. I was happy that they were so excited about their day.

They caught some fish and had a great time. Miles' love of fishing is only second to baseball. He said he learned a lot too and he was really happy about that. 

I had the best day on Saturday. I did a few things when I first woke up and picked up a grocery order. My goal was to have a chill pool day and that is what we did. My mom came over and spent the afternoon swimming with us while Darrin was at camp.

Stephanie came to hang out too. 

I spent a solid 7 hours outside and it was wonderful. We had a lot of sunshine, but enough clouds to give us a break every now and then. I kept saying that I hoped our sunscreen was doing it's job and it did!

It was a homemade salsa kind of weekend too.

Miles took a break from swimming to go fishing at the neighbors.

Carson took a few breaks too, but he swam his little heart out.

When Miles and Carson went inside to eat or play electronics every now and then, my mom, Stephanie and I would welcome the break and just relax. It was a really nice day.

We were really happy when Darrin came home and offered to make food for us. He brought us a basket of cheese sticks and grilled burgers. He is the best. We were hungry, but only took the time to make some hot dogs much earlier in the day. Stephanie jokingly took this pic but I really was happy about food :)

Darrin had camp again today, but the boys and I drove to Granny & Pa's b/c I helped throw a shower for his cousin's daughter who is getting married in October.

I am so thankful that Carson is a good car rider now! He draws, plays the DS, and sings. He always asks a LOT of questions while we are driving. "What is that person doing?" "Why do they have a red truck?" "Why does it rain?" "Did Jesus die on the cross?" "Is he still there?" "Are we almost there?" "What song is this?" It never ends but he does get a little quieter when he is busy, so this was a nice moment.

I got to hang out with Darrin's sister and cousin. Love them both very much. It's always a good day when I get to see them.

On the way home from the shower we stopped by a co-worker's house for me to leave/take a book from her little library. I've been wanting to stop by for a while but I always forget when I'm in the area. I left Layla by Colleen Hoover and This Time Next Year by Sophie Cousens. I got The Silence by Don DeLillo.

Darrin was at camp most of the weekend, but we did get to spend some time swimming last night and tonight. Camp is over and now it countdown to season. We are excited that a regular season is planned. Praying nothing gets in the way!
