Our Weekend

I didn't get to post yesterday so here I go playing catch up again...
We had another great weekend.

We spent Friday evening with the Clymens family. Jayme made us all ice-cream sundaes...YUM-YUM. We ate our sundaes while we watched a movie. It was 27 Dresses starring Katherine Heigl. It was a GREAT movie. We all stayed awake through the entire movie. Which is a feat for us. If it doesn't keep Michael's attention he is asleep in no time flat. The kids stayed upstairs and watched The Waterhorse. We had actually watched it on Thursday evening as a family and LOVED it....so Jarrett and Blake didn't care to watch it again.

Saturday morning I didn't get to go for my morning run with the girls...because of my pulled muscle......but my boys benefited from it. I decided to make them a BIG breakfast. I made them biscuits & gravy, eggs, sausage, bacon and chocolate chip pancakes. It was nice to sit down together and enjoy a nice breakfast...without rushing around like we normally have to do on Saturdays.

Then Blake had a T-Ball game at 11:30 and Jarrett had a game at 2:00. Mamaw Na Na and Papaw Dan got to come over for the day to see them both play (I'm channeling Dr. Seuss again). We got to the game and discovered that we had forgotten to get Blake's baseball glove. Jarrett had his glove, so Blake used that..although he didn't want to.
Blake had another good game. He has such a good time playing T-Ball. My favorite part of all is his stance....when he gets up there to bat....he looks like a pro! It's so cute. I took my camera to the game to get some pictures, I haven't taken any in a while. When I got my camera out...I had forgotten to get my memory card. I think MY BRAIN needs a new MEMORY CARD! I am definitely having memory problems lately. BTW....we STILL can't figure out where my checkbook is!!!!! UGH!!

Jarrett's game was at 2:00. They won....but Jarrett himself didn't have a good game....in HIS eyes anyway. He struck out 3 times. HE WAS NOT AT ALL HAPPY WITH HIMSELF. He gets so down. We try to cheer him up....but, nothing helps when he gets like that. Jarrett is such a good baseball player.....he is used to getting several runs. That just wasn't in the cards for him on Saturday and he felt like he let his team down.

Saturday evening we were invited to a barbecue at Michael's plant manager's (Jim) house. We decided to turn it into a night out for just US. We had planned to go see a movie after we left the barbecue. So Mamaw Na Na and Papaw Dan took Jarrett and Blake with them to eat and spend the night. That DID finally cheer Jarrett up. We had to be at Jim's house at 4:00. We ended up staying until 10:30...it was alot of fun. More fun than I expected. So no movie. Michael is very fortunate to work along side the people that he does.

Sunday was church. It was very odd not having Jarrett and Blake with us. We really missed those 2 little boogers!!!!! Although it was nice to sleep a little later than the norm on a Sunday. Our service was wonderful as usual.

After the service one of my favorite girls, Allie, came home with us. Tommy and Jayme decided to spend some time together. (Jayme asked Allie which friend she wanted to spend the day with and Allie said "Jennifer" =-). That just made me smile.) After the service we went out to eat with the McKays. When we got home Allie and I changed our clothes and went out to get some ice-cream. We went to Marble Slab. I had some peanut butter and chocolate ice cream and Allie had Double Dark Chocolate. It was great!! We then went to Wal-mart and she picked out some nail polish. We came home, watched Hannah Montana and did our nails. You know..."Girl Stuff". I'm purty sure she had fun. I know I did! lol!

Then we went to our evening service. We had some kids from a local elementary school come and sing. They did a wonderful job.
After the service several of us went out to eat.
Then we went to pick up Jarrett and Blake. Mamaw Na Na and Papaw Dan always meet us halfway (they live an hour away).....so neither one of us have to drive so far.
After we picked the boys up we took Allie home.

Jarrett and Blake were very tired...they feel asleep on the way home. They had a great time with Mamaw Na Na and Papaw Dan.....they always make each visit so special for them.

So that pretty much sums up "Our Weekend".

Yesterday evening Blake had a T-Ball game. I took my camera AND my memory card this time ;-). Here's a few pictures...
Tapping the home plate a couple of times.....

After Blake's game we stayed to watch Allie and Ashley's (Jayme and Tommy's girls) very first softball game. They both did really well! I was so proud of those girlies!! Here's a couple of pictures....

This morning I have a doctor's appointment to find out what's going on with my leg. I have taken it easy for almost a week now.....I'm ready to get back in the swing of things!!!

I hope you guys have a great day! It's looking like we are in for some rain here today.
