Not A Whole Lot Going On

Saturday we ended up meeting Lisa and her girls at the park in the morning. The kids played for awhile and then we headed home for Sadie to nap. We played outside while Sadie napped, tried to go on a bike ride when she woke up, but we all had flat tires. So we circled the neighborhood and headed back home. We cooked burgers when Ryan got home, and then I headed to Meijer's grocery shopping. Ryan (and me at one point) was supposed to go to the race at MIS Sunday, but Sunday morning decided against it knowing it would be postponed due to weather. Sure enough- it was postponed until today, which I am sure it will be postponed again until tomorrow. This rain is out of control! It is supposed to rain tomorrow as well, so we'll see. Sunday we went to church and then MJ and J had the boys for the afternoon. Sadie napped for awhile so I cooked/baked. I made brownies and made enchiladas- so yummy! (Ryan decided to work and save the vacation day since the race was canceled). The boys came home and Cobe went to Mark's for the evening. We finally summoned him home around 9 after I watched Big Brother. Not much exciting happened during that episode. The Sunday night ones are my least favorite. Today, Ryan got up and made me eggs and sausage and the kids waffles and I am still sitting in my pjs. It is a great morning for that. Ryan has SWAT training from noon to 6:00 so he'll be gone AGAIN!!! I feel like he has been gone a ton lately and he leaves Wed. for a trip up north with some cops and his brother until Sunday. I wish the weather were nicer, then I feel like the kids and I would have more to do. We are going to hit the Hudsonville fair one of these days. It was going to be today, but not with this weather. We'll postpone until it finally stops raining. Anyone know where to get coupons for the armbands at the fair????

Sorry, can't help you with coupons... I've never been to the Hudsonville fair, but I hear it is way nicer than OC! So nice that he made you breakfast! I wish Matt were home in the morning more and that he would do that! (He does once in a while on weekends...) I hear ya on the rain, while I do enjoy a few of these "curl up with a blanket and book/computer" days, it's getting to be rediculous, and now I"m going to have to mow my lawn a lot... YUCK!

Didn't your kids get something to gil out from the Library book program for 5 free tickets each? It is only for Tue. - tomorrow - the kids day. I think we are going to try to go Tue. night if no rain before Kyle leaves for the weekend! 5 tickets isn't much, but Selah can maybe go on like ONE ride and Braelyn only about 4 - so we can buy a few extra and call it good for my kids. Your kiddos (at least Brooks and Cobe) can go on a few more!

I can't help ya with the fair tickets. I think I've only been there once. Is that crazy or what. LOL

Big brother was uneventful on Sunday, right?!?! I was kind of disappointed. LOL

Hopefully, this rain stops!! ugh...
