Weekend Wrap Up

This was the most social weekend we have had in a long time. I have so many pictures. I thought I would post a few to wrap up the weekend and then I'll post more this week.

Carson's daycare was closed due to Covid on Friday, so he went to work with Darrin. He kept wandering around the corner to hang out in the administrative offices. Clearly he is comfortable at Darrin's office!

Darrin's assistant coach had to bring her baby to work too. Carson loves Jett. He tells us all the time how cute he is.

Carson and Miles spent the night with Granny and Pa on Friday night. They watched a movie, ate popcorn, and played Dominos.

While the kids were away, we went to a surprise party for Abby! We had such a fun night hanging with our friends. I love when the stars align and a memorable night comes out of nowhere. That's how this night was. Her family pulled off a great surprise!

Saturday night, Carson spent the night with Marmee. They played Legos, ate snacks, and watched TV. When Darrin dropped him off, Carson told him he was ready for him to leave. He was ready to have Marmee's full attention!

We had an event for my work. This is the fourth year that we have gone to the Black Tie & Boxing charity event, but the first year we've been on the floor verses the balcony. The balcony is casual and the floor is formal. It was fun a fun night with my work friends.

Miles and three of his friends went to the event for the first time and sat in the balcony with his friends' parents. They had a great time. Miles said he liked the MMA fights the best (ditto for Darrin & me!). It was fun to wave to him during the night.

He had a sleepover with his friends afterwards. Apparently they had big plans to stay up all night, but when Abby checked on them at 2am, they were fast asleep.

I hope these boys are always great friends.

On Sunday, I was able to go to a late lunch with Rachel & Christa, my longtime friends from Martin. We haven't see each other in way too long, but our conversation felt like we still talk daily. These girls are forever friends no matter how much we do or don't talk. Fun fact...the last time we were all together (because Christa moved out of state for a while) was during the height of the pandemic in 2020. We got a hotel room just to be able to hang out all night and talk before Christa moved. Nothing was open, so we had to get Chickfila and take it back to the room :)

It was such a fun weekend. I enjoyed hanging out with so many friends and getting to hang out with Darrin sans kids. We are very, very thankful to the grandparents for watching them. It's crazy, but I feel happy and refreshed after a weekend of laughter and some downtime without kids. I plan to be back this week to share many more pictures from our oh so fun weekend.
