Loving the hot weather!!!

This weekend was a fun but busy one as usual! Friday I made it a goal to do as little as possible since it's the one day a week I usually can! Saturday had a list of things to do! We had Dominic's baseball pictures, and I have to say I was quite disappointed because only 5 out of 10 kids showed up for his team. It sounded like that's how it was for a lot of teams. Then we had to go get our other 3 tires (we replaced one on my birthday). I had called and gotten prices quotes from every tire company in town and found the best price at Big-O. Well they failed to mention that the only 2 tires they had in stock were the 2 most expensive ones, so when we went there they didn't have the ones we wanted! We HAD to replace one of them that day, because just like the 1st one we replaced it was starting to split. Then we had to order the other 2, and won't get them until later this week. This little mess up caused some pretty big changes in our plans though. After getting our new tires our plan was to go to Sandy and go to the Festival of Roses that Anth's mom was in charge of at their church. It was like a carnival from what I understand with a car show and all, but since our tires are so horrible we didn't dare drive out there on them :( My mom ended up volunteering to take the kids to see Monsters Vs Aliens (Dom has been begging to see it!), so that we could go to dinner to make up for my horrible birthday. It was nice to have that couple of hours to ourselves. We picked up movies afterwards and came home to just relax once the kids were in bed!

Yesterday was the best though! We decided to take advantage of the hot weather! Anth and I let the kids get their swimsuits on and play in the water while we just lounged out back with them. Then my sister called and wanted to hang out, so her and my nephews came down. All of them plus 2 neighbor kids played in the water, and we just watched them have a good time! All of us got a little more sun than we wanted to, but it was fun! We BBQed some hamburgers and hot dogs, and called it a night! Those are my favorite days! I LOVE spending time at home just relaxing and being with my family :) Cheesy, but true!
