What a wonderful weekend

This weekend was busy but great!!!

Friday work could not get over soon enough. We went over to the casino and met a great couple of friends there. Dinner was good we had to wait for a bit but the time went fast when we were talking with friends. After we ate we headed down to the casino! I played a couple of different machines then I went on too play the triple 7's machine and I won "big" Well I would call it big. In one pull I won $45 bucks. I walked away up $90 for the night so it was a good night.

Saturday morning we woke up and went to breakfast at this little diner with our friends. I had eggs, bacon, toast, and hash browns. They were so yummy!! After breakfast Brian and I headed home and started to get ready for Conner and Carly's first birthday party. The birthday party was cowboy/cowgirl them and we had a blast!! The day ended sitting around a campfire. Perfect ending to a wonderful day.

This morning er rather this afternoon I woke up (I had a long day yesterday with the party) Brian and I headed over to mom and dads and we had Sunday dinner. After dinner we came home and did some cleaning....I know fun right. Now we are just chilling out and not doing much for the rest of the day. I have BLT'S on the menu for tonight.

This was a great weekend and I am so glad I had it off so I could spend a long needed weekend with friends and family.

For the babies birthday I made scrapbooks for them here are some of the pics of the book.

Taco!

Today did not start off the best. I stayed up late last night and then 5:30 came too early this morning. Yuck! When I got to work at the daycare the kids were crazy today. They were fighting, yelling, and throwing toys! Crazy kids. I am so so glad I only work 6-9 at the daycare. When I got off at one from the gas station I had to head to town. I needed to get medicine and groceries before I went in I was checking to make sure I had my insurance med card.....Well I look in my purse and guess what I didn't have my billfold. No check book no nothing!!! I did a little freaking out then I called Brian and told him I am so stupid for forgetting my billfold at home. He laughed at me for freaking out and almost crying over this stupid thing. After he got done laughing he then reminded me that we bank in town and I could just go in and get cash....Why didn't I think of that!! I got all my shopping done and headed home. I went back to work and when I got home my day got better! Brian made taco's!!!!!! I think taco's is one of my favorite foods. He had everything ready and I was so good. I even had a strawberry crush to wash it down.

This is my yummy dinner complaints of Chef Brian!!

I am sorry that my pic is crappy and turned the wrong way. I am trying to fix it.

Dear Grandma

Dear Grandma-
Today I thought of you at first it was happy thoughts like how you showed me how to make a pie. How you always said that it does not matter who you marry as long as it is someone who you love and who treats you right. How you taught me that I should always treat people the way I would like to be treated.
 I had a great time remembering all the times I stayed at your house when I was younger and how I would go in with you to grandpa's eyeglass shop and pretend I was the Secretary and would color for hours and try on all the glasses. I remember feeding and watering the two pink flamingos down by your bird bath (you got so mad when I would waste all the water just playing in it but you never told me that I had to stop) I remember playing with dolls and having you help me rock my babies to sleep.
 As I got older I had more great memories like that summer you lived with us until your apartment was ready. The special gift you gave me for my 18th birthday (the gold ring your grandmother gave you for your 18th birthday) I still think of you when I wear that ring. I remember you always giving me coupons and a list to get your groceries when I got off work in town. I remember the way you would always have pop and homemade cookies at your house ALWAYS!

It makes me sad to think that you are gone and you never got to be at our wedding or see our house become our home.I am glad you got to meet Brian because he is a wonderful man who treats em with respect and love.  I am sad that you will never get the chance to meet our children when we have them. They will never get the chance to meet the amazing woman who tough me so much. They will never have the chance for Grandma Hilda to call them sweet pea or hold and rock them in your arms.
 This makes me so sad and teary eyed but I know you are in a better place now and I know you are keeping an eye on all of us down here. I also know that you are doing an amazing job up in heaven taking care of our 4 little babies that we were not able to keep with us. I know you are holding all of them and giving them all big hugs. I love and miss you so much Grandma.

XOXO
