The long weekend gets even longer...

Mike and I both had a 3 day weekend, which hardly ever happens, so we packed as much into it as we could.  It kind of started Thursday night, when my BFF got us free last minute tickets to the Texans game.  We were close.  This is a pic from our seats, with no zoom.

Then, on Saturday, we celebrated my nephew's first birthday with a party at his house.  The boys absolutely LOVE going over to Aunt LaLa's.  They are staying with her while we are on our cruise in November and every day Logan asks me if it's November yet.  Here's the birthday boy taking a whack at the pinata with the help of Uncle Mike.

Sunday afternoon we all went over to Mom's for some swimming and BBQing...we had fajitas and all the fixins.  The boys stayed with Mom and Dad Sunday night because we were going to a friend's going away party.  Kim, I am going to miss you sooo much!  The rodeo won't be the same without you...(she's the shorty, 2nd from the left)

When we got to the karaoke bar where her going away party was at, I was telling Mike in the car how much I wished Laura was gonna be there because I hadn't seen her in forever.  And guess who practically attacked me when I walked in the door!  Laura!  She is the blonde in the pic next to me.  It was so good to see her and catch up.  We stayed there for a while and then we went to Big Texas to get some dancing in.  And Ladies and Gentlemen, I met my first online blog friend in real life.  Hattie's blog is one of the first I added to my reader and a fellow Mom to boys (she's got me way beat though, she has 4!).  I recognized her when I first saw her fly past me to groove on the dance floor.  It was really neat to meet someone that I feel like I know just from what she writes on her blog.

When we picked up the boys the next day, we found out Jack had gotten sick at Mom's...in the middle of the night and all over her and her bed.  eww.  Sorry Mom.  And then last night Logan was up all night puking.  He stayed home from school today to recover and I got to spend some quality time with him watching Camp Rock 2...for the 20th time so far.  So along with the good comes the bad, but that's life right?

All in all, it was a pretty good run of days off. :)
