this weekend

sorry, no turkey day pics.  i always forget to get pics, i get wrapped up in the family & festivities that i forget. 

we did have lots of fun the last few days so here are some pics that i took starting on wednesday..

it was just me & q until it was time to pick up hopp so we decided to go have some froyo.  i always get the peanut butter with the chocolate mixed.  i tryed the salted caramel but didn't really care for it plus, i didn't realize it until after i tried it, it is NOT gf so i couldn't eat it even if i liked it.  i also let q have the italian wedding cake flavor & then realized it wasn't gf either but it didn't bother her this time, thank goodness.  this was her enjoying her non-gf froyo.  :)

we then when & checked out our new big lots store.  they moved & it's so nice!  however there was this lady, pictured above & she had humongo hair!  it was so teased & huge that you could actually see through her hair.  she was probably in her 60s or 70s so i'm sure she has had this style for quite some time & possibly more hair at one point so it wasn't so see through at a younger age.  she was tiny too so her head was about the size of a small child.  it was so strange & i couldn't really take one from the front, wish i could have gotten one from the side.  i also saw that big lots had those funny someecards calendars with all those great super funny pics from pinterest.  totally thought of my friendscrystal & sarah.  :)  totally not work appropriate or i would have so bought one.  :)

so i lied, i did have pics from turkey day.  just not of the food or other family.  diddy, my fil, put q in the tree, she was feverishly trying to climb it but with a dress it was impossible to get knee traction without tearing up your knees.  so here she is, q in the tree.  sorry for the bad shadows but can you say super cheesin'?

of course hopp had to get in on the tree action.  :)

we watched captin america on friday, pretty good movie.  on another thought.  we have seen thor, that's pretty good too.  xmen was good as well.  i think the new avenger movie is going to be good too.  anyone know who all the avengers are besides, CA & thor?  i saw a lady but wasn't for sure who she was.  we have also seen bridesmaids & horrible bosses, both super funny, definitely not kid appropriate but i'm sure you already know this. 

then had a successful trip to the laundromat, for the comforter, yesterday.  thankfully no shenanigans happened.  i've always wondered what the soap dispenser looked like so i took a pic.  only got the soap dispenser so i'm not for sure what the bleach or fabric dispenser looks like, this is on the triple/quad load washers.  so now you guys know too.  :o)

last night after hitting up the grocery store it was time to warm up with a nice cup of hot cocoa.  got a huge box with marshmallows for $3 at big lots.  now i normally wouldn't show you a pic like this but this one is a first & she looked so damn cute holding that mug.  she is FOR THE FIRST TIME, drinking out of a real ceramic mug, as a matter of fact this might be her very first hot cocoa ever!  isn't she just the cutest!!!  :o)

i can't believe it but it's only 5 days till my craft show!  yikes!!! got lots to do, hope i can get some sneak peeks to you soon.  i've finished a HUGE amt of wips so not for sure i will have everything to show.  happy monday, just think, it's almost over.  :o)

getting the weekend started off right

it started with hopp's party on friday evening.  we had nachos & played a few games & then we opened presents & ate cake.  it was a great birthday party & everyone had lots of fun.  sorry for lacking in pics, my MIL took all the pics & i don't know if i will ever get them on my end.  :)

everyone in their dino masks ready to race :)

 during the party, jess' friend came & picked her up for the game & this is the pic with both of them in their mum/garter.  gabriel is the same age as jess but i'm guessing he looks so much older because of the 'stache.  he was very sweet, the little bit we actually saw him, & was very polite & met almost everyone in the family, lucky him.  :o)


jess & her friend gabriel

after everyone left we started opening up packaging & pulling out her toys to play with.  i only got picks with two of the gifts & they were from my friend maria.  she loved the baby & the necklace/bracelet/ring set it's so cute & rainbow-y & lots of glitter.

hopp showing off her bling bling from her party

she loves her new baby

then on saturday we went & looked for a dress, long story short, she found a really cute one from ross for under $17!!!  it's blue with a black lace overlay so unless you are standing next to her you really can't tell it's blue.  i don't think they planned the colors together but he matched her & they were a very handsome couple.  :)


ready for the homecoming dance

 on sunday we didn't do much just waited till after nap & went to the laundromat to wash my comforter.  we are going to probably need it this evening so i figured i better go ahead & get it clean so we can use it soon.  we have a washer/dryer but the washer i have isn't king size comforter friendly. 

having a good time at the laundromat

i hope you all had a great weekend!  see you soon...
