Manic Monday!

Ok….this late Manic Monday posting is starting to get old!  I really need to be better about getting this out earlier….but I do have an excuse..sort of!  Kaleigh and Carter started their first day of VBS(Vacation Bible School) today and we had to be out of the house by 8:30 this morning and we stayed out until about 2:30 having fun at Chic-fil-a….annnnd, I’ve just spent the last 1 1/2 hour talking back and forth between Apple and my external hard drive company trying to figure out what seems to be an impossible task.  To say I am frustrated is an understatement.  So thats my excuse for the late post. 🙂  Anyway, here is a quick recap of this past weekend!  Friday, we had a few friends over in honor of the Fourth of July!  We lit some fireworks and had a great time!  The kids stayed with Jay’s parents and I am sure they had a blast over there as well!  Saturday we went up to Goochland for a while to spend some time with the family and fish…well…I didn’t fish(it was way too hot!) but the kids had a fun time!  After, we went to my parents house for dinner and crashed at bedtime.  Sunday we went to Chuck E Cheese, which was surprisingly not crowded and then Geleti Celesti for icecream(SOO good!) After, we went to my parents house to swim and eat dinner.  It was a pretty relaxing weekend and I managed to get some editing done, so that was good!  Ok, so onto the goal list!

 

Last week’s goals:

Personal:

-Try to maintain my sanity without any power, water and AC(which means I cant do laundry, dishes, etc!)  This is going to be TOUGH!  This was hard, but we made it through…

-workout three times  YES!

-Plan something fun for the kids to do on the 4th….any suggestions?? 🙂  We relaxed and it felt GREAT after having no AC!

-order some new photos  Yay!  Now I just need to find a place to put them!

-start a new book  Divergent..pretty good so far!
