Super Fun Weekend!

Friday afternoon we headed to Popi and Grammy's. Popi came home early from work and after a yummy lunch, we all headed to Main Place Mall for some back to school shopping!! Bella picked out her backpack, lunch pail, water bottle and clothes at Justice (thank you Grammy and Popi !!!). After a little 'schooling' by my 8 year old when she said, "You are being really mean Mom...not everything has to match perfectly", I let her get the backpack she had her heart set on and a lunch pail that does not go at all. It is so hard to let go control. LOL!

The kids were over shopping and Popi took them to ride the train while Grammy and I shopped in Crazy 8. I found the most awesome deals and was so happy to get both Bella and Vincent more school clothes. After the mall, we headed to Target where Bella so happily picked out everything and crossed of her list! I remember being this happy when it was time to get school supplies - no lies, I am still giddy over office supplies!!!


Saturday afternoon we headed to Papa Joe and Grammy Alice's house where we had a yummy dinner celebrating Chris' Birthday! All pictures are on Grammy Nancy's phone. Grammy Alice made a wonderful dinner and their new house is beautiful! I am so happy for them!

Today we all met up again to celebrate Aunt Amy's 40th Birthday with brunch at Back Bay Bistro! It was delicious!! Since I couldn't hold the babies last time because I was sick, I hogged them today. Aunt Amy is such a beautiful Woman and Mother! I know she will have the best year ever watching those little babies grow! And the Cousins ROCK in their glasses.


Oh, and I finished an invitation job in there too...


Have a super blessed week my friends!

Love it! I had a hard time letting Beauy choose too. I had to drop subtle hints about wise decisions... Those girls! xoxo Love you!

Oh man-for some reason your first 2 pictures aren't showing up on my end. But I am sure Bella's backpack and lunchbox are fine! But I totally know what you mean about relinquishing control! They certainly have an opinion of their own these days huh? We just had a Crazy 8 open up by our house and I have yet to go in. I hear it's great though!

School supplies are the best! There is nothing like brand new crayons and pencils. Love it! I'm glad you got some good twin baby time in too. I love seeing pictures of Amy, the twins and the rest of her lovely family. It warms my heart! Love you my sweet friend! XOXO
