"Sunday Funday"

Yesterday was my first time ever having a "Sunday Funday." It was just that...a FUN DAY!! Michael and I were invited to go along with Brooke, Sam, Chuck, Mike and Kent to participate in what they call their "Sunday Funday."

Destination: Holcumbe. First stop Swedes Bar (http://www.bigswedes.com/)
to eat their famous Broasted Chicken. MMMMM....that was truly the best chicken I have ever had in my life! I even ate the skin of the chicken, and I am not a skin eater. I was drinking Malibu and Pineapple and dessert of Chuck's choice was Polish Bombs.

Second stop was Flaters (http://www.lakeholcombe.org/flaters/) where we did more polish bombs and a thin mint shot and us girls got free shirts.

Michael ended up having to drive us girls in Brooke's car, because we were not in any condition to be driving. Michael was drinking NA beer aka not allowed. Michael is so tall that he had to open the sun roof just to be able to sit straight. On the way to the 3rd bar Sam and I were sitting in the back seat of Brooke's car and we were so buzzed. I remember Sam was dancing with her ass up in the back window, I threw her beer out the window along with Brooke's garbage can that she kept in her car.

Third stop was I don't remember the name, but we did more polish bombs and of course a shot of my favorite which is Jaeger. The funniest part of the trip to this bar was the boys told us girls that there isn't a bathroom at the bar, that there are outhouses. So what does Brooke do? She goes and squats in the neighbors yard next to the bar. Then the boys tell her that they were kidding. Brooke decided that it would be cool to steal a fish bait from the bar too.

Fourth Stop was Ted's Timber Lodge (http://www.tedstimberlodge.com/) where I broke my sunglasses. We had more shots here. Not sure how many.

Fifth Stop was I don't remember. Here at this bar all I can remember is that there was a band playing, I ate peanuts and I was lectured because apparently I opened the car door on our way to this bar while we were driving down the road.

Sixth Stop...I don't remember the drive here at all and I don't remember the name of this place either. From what I was told...I had quite a few shots here, and I even drank from the bottle that the bartender left on the counter. At this point I was taken home.

It was about 9:30 at night and I passed out when I got home.

Today...I was very sluggish. When I woke up at 7am, I was still very dizzy and had to go back to bed at around 8:30 am until 11:30am.

Standing in line

So I am standing in line at the grocery store getting ready to check out (thank goodness) and I feel a GUSH! Yes, my period started without any warning. I knew it was going to start any day, but really, it had to start right then? Thankfully I had on black yoga pants!

Oh the joys of womanhood!

why do kids have to be so cute?

Yesterday I had to drop Nolan and Madalynn off with a sitter that we don't use too often. Nolan had a fit about this. He cried so hard when I dropped him off. I told him that I promise that I would be back to pick him back up in a few hours.

A few hours later I picked him up and he had the biggest smile on his face. The first thing he said to me was "you did pick me up! You told me you would come pick me up." He kept saying this the rest of the day. I thought this was so cute...it gave me a warm tingly feeling all over and put a huge smile on my face.

My Daughter

She seriously melts me...she brings me so much joy! I never thought that I would be blessed with a daughter, but God surely did bless me. After having 3 boys, I thought that I was doomed to be a mom of just boys...(it wouldn't have been that bad), but I was due for a girl.

Madalynn is now 19 months old, she will be 20 months old on the 31st of August. She is such a love bug, but also a firecracker. Man she sure can throw a fit...I'm talking throw her self on the floor, lays on her back crying, picks things up and throws them kinda fit. Wow she is just like her MOTHER!!
