Some Time with Family

At the end of September (forever ago!!) Joey decided that we needed to spend some time away as a family...but we couldn't afford to fly or go to Great Wolf Mountain (ridiculous prices!!!) so we just stayed at a nearby  hotel...the only requirement was an indoor pool!  

Joey had to work Saturday, but the kids and I headed over to the hotel around 3 and they swam until they turned into prunes!!

A little post-swim workout!!  Haha!!

 Once Joey got off we headed to Fuddruckers for dinner...it was delish!!

Breslyn was still pretty puny so we headed back to the motel.  We all snuggled up and watched Rio.  

Sunday morning we had a free yummy breakfast and hit the pool again!!

Afterwards we went up to the hotel to veg for a little bit!  While we rested Joey and I talked to the kids about how they need to be treating each other...with kindness not hatefulness.  We've had a lot of hatefulness spread around our happy little nest lately...and quite frankly I'm sick of it...it exhausts me.  Hopefully they will remember this little talk next time they are fighting over a Lego, or book or just being mean to be mean.

Then we packed, headed out and went to lunch.  Chuys?  Why yes please!!!

We had such a great time as a family and can't wait to do it again soon!!  

Photo Dump...Week of September 14th

This was a pretty uneventful week...but it ended with our staycation which I will blog about next!  First up Sunday.....

And a Taco Bell run after church...I took this picture because I needed a photograph with him wearing this outfit.  I have pictures (somewhere) of both Aidan and Finley wearing this same outfit!!  It is just so precious to me.

Tuesday was Aidan's football game and we had LOTS of friends to cheer him on including Memaw...

Bryce and Joel Puckett...

Pastor Kevin and his wife Vicki as well as our youth Pastor Dale and his son James!!  

Whew...I hope Aidan felt loved!!

That Friday Miss. Camille was looking uber stylish...that bow is the perfect amount of huge and sassy!!

That Friday night B spent the night with Memaw.  Not long into Saturday morning she started feeling super nauseous....hence the Aldi barf bag in her lap!! :(  So Memaw brought her to me and within a minute she was zonked in the back seat.  Poor baby.  Unfortunately these bouts would continue through the weekend, but she never did throw up.  

Saturday I also picked up some candles from Bath and Body Works!!  I had to get ready for Fall!!  Eeek!  They both smell great....especially Pumpkin Cafe Latte!  

A fairly good week...now on to our staycation!!  ;)
