birthdays, movies & silly string...

what a wonderful weekend it was.
I actually got to enjoy time at home, it's been a while.

Friday night = Poker & Girls Night

My FIL always hosts a poker night for his brothers & Aaron
to all get together every few months. Even though Aaron didn't come home
with extra in his pocket, he still enjoyed the moments of being with family.

Mean while, I had a date with my friend Brycelyn. She's expecting
very soon so it's been in the conversations that we get together to have play time
before Baby B arrives mid-august.
We went to see Magic Man - Wow! My goodness. I'll be honest to say that I wasn't
all excited about it as most other woman were, but Whoa... My goodness, those men
can d.a.n.c.e! I think I blushed the entire time. It was pretty good!
&& then we had dinner to catch up at a Mexican restaurant across the street.
Besides getting lost {I know, it's just across the street} & a drunken lady falling over on me, it was a wonderful evening. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Saturday was Ryder's first birthday & party.
What an adorable little man he is with is curly ringlet fro!



Ryder was SO cute. He wasn't really sure about the M&M's on
his cake, matter of fact he kept throwing them off but he was in a great
mood the whole party. Ryder opened his favorite gift first so he didn't really
get to see what other fun stuff he received.
Great party!



Aaron & I went to see Batman that evening.
I thought it was good but I felt Batman got hurt to much. He's Batman?!?
He isn't supposed to fail this much, right?
Overall, it was very good. Even the yummy popcorn.

&& I will say it was hard to sit through the movie when seeing
moments of "smoke/fog" flashing up... thinking about those who lost their
lives in Colorado. Insert sad face.

We spend the rest of the night lounging around, chil-axing.
It was nice.


{That moment when your wife finds a can of silly string as she'scleaning out the draws && surprises you with it as you open the front door?}

&& Sunday was my favorite day. I was home ALL day.
Well, we did have lunch at Jalapenos {how is this girl supposed to diet?}
which was nice but other than that....

Cooked breakfast before the Hubs woke && then immediately started cleaning my house. I did base boards & all the yuck stuff.
&& then I spend the entire day watching the Olympics && packing for a yard
sale this weekend. I have more crap than anything I know but not after Saturday.

Great relaxing weekend!

Oh && thank you ALL for all the wonderful comments on le blog
& instagram on the gender reveal party. It was much success.
Come back tomorrow for the first recap on my trip/reunion to Fernandina Beach
with my Middle School girlfriends.

Ryder {& a little humor}



Have I ever shared this handsome fella of mine?
Not really m.i.n.e, but kind of.
This is Ryder, our youngest nephew.
Doesn't he have the prettiest brown eyes, ever!?

Happy Monday, eerrr body!
Only two more days and then.... the FEAST!!!

Check out a little humor below... you know I love some JB.


George Lopez is ridiculously hilarious.
I love him...

Jennifer Love Hewitt has Bieber Fever too! :)
Back up Jen!

10 Day YOU Challenge: Day EIGHT, Fears



Day Eight
... fears.
---------------------------------------
10. Frogs
... i hate them. scared to death.

9. Certain people in our lives wanting to control our parenting
... when that time comes, of course.

8. Dealing with forever goodbyes
... worst fear.

7. Being abducted.

6. Not being able to conceive.
... would be my second worst nightmare.

5. Failing as a wife

4.  Cancer

3. Having bratty kids.
... I hope & pray I am not the parent that let's their child run over them.

2. Stretch Marks
... I have very few. I'm okay with them, but I'd be happy if they don't ever
invite their friends.

1. Letting myself go
... women [in general] seem to do this often when children arrive or when the relationship
isn't at it's highest peak. We focus on everything else but us. [In a 10 year dating relationship, I've been here. I never want to  go there again.]

------------------------------------------------------

Today is the day
Aaron and I will be Aunt & Uncle to
little Ryder... he makes NINE! 
 {Christmas is tight & we don't even have children}
We are so excited! He should be here anytime today!
Prayers for Ryder & his parents for a safe & healthy delivery!

God is SO good; Somebody is Pregnant...

4324784234_1ebf86a24b_z_large 

Not me silly....

One of my first blog friends, Lindsi from The Handcocks blog!
Lindsi & her husband Alan have been trying to conceive for years now.
Finally, well... they've known for a while, but I just found out [BAD BLOGGER FRIEND] she's pregnant & they can extend their family. She posted today about being 19 weeks preggers with Cale Micheal. I was floored and so excited when I saw her picture of her updated belly bump. I went back and read all her baby posts. I am overwhelmed with much happiness to see this beautiful family of two grow.

Lindsi,

I can't believe I've missed so much. I am so very sorry. However, it's still early. I couldn't be more excited for you and Alan & looking forward to hearing all about little Cale. God is good.

-------------------------------------------

In the same breath, I would like to capture a small moment that [hopefully] ends up beings a BIG precious moment here soon.
Aaron's Sister, Bridget & her hubby Patrick are preggers with their second son. Ryder is due August 1st. Yay! However, it's been said he could come very early because he is a hulk. :) Bridget had a contraction last night, only one and then was able to go back to bed but still... We are SO excited to meet Ryder and blessed to have 8 + Ryder = NINE little ones calling us Aunt Jessica & Punkle [Punk + Uncle = Punkle] Aaron. Yay! Life is happy and couldn't get better!
