My Stay-cation

Welcome to a night of blogging, finally!!  I can't believe it has been a month since I blogged last.  I actually really thought I had already done father's day!!  (And how was that a month ago already??!!)  Anyway, scroll down to see what we have been up to...probably not in order!  This was on my to do list for my "stay-cation" and it is 10:20 on Thurs night and I am finally getting to it!  Yikes!  Anyway, let me start by telling you about my week...

Last weekend I spent the weekend at my old stomping grounds back in Hector for the annual Corn-chaff days.  Jesse and the kids came for the parade...it rained and was chilly...that NEVER happens at Corn Chaff days!  It is usually swealtering hot and sunny in beginning of July!  Although later in the afternoon after the clouds cleared and that strong July sun came out, it did get hot.  Kids went to grandma and grandpa Mages's house for the night and I got to enjoy a night out with friends.  It felt so good to not have to rush home Sunday to get about 100 things done before the work week began again!  I picked up the kids after watching some of the annual softball tourney Sunday and we spent the night at my brother, Dan, and his wife, KerryAnn's house. 

On Monday we headed out to Mankato to visit a college friend and her kiddos.  She has a pool, so that was great on this, another warm day.  I loved visiting her and catching up.  We don't see each other nearly often enough.  Unfortunately another good college friend, Sara, was not able to join us on short notice, but now we have a reason to get together again this summer!!! 

Tuesday the kids went to daycare and I got some things done around the house (and took a nap ;).  Wednesday we went to the Y and then the pool in the afternoon.  Today the girls went to daycare again I got more done, went to the Y, and got to do a little shopping in New London before I picked Allie up early to go to Despicable Me 2 (it was great!!), then T-ball for Allie and pictures there.  Tomorrow the plan is to go to another pool (that makes 3 different pools this week!) with a friend from high school and her little girl.  It has been a great week!!  Do I really have to go back to work??
