We stayed at home this weekend to get some things done and celebrate some birthdays...The boys helped celebrate a friend's 16th birthday on Friday evening so Ben, Gabi and I ate at Applebee's and then went to her fun fair at school. She had such a great time. One of Gabi's teachers even gave her extra tickets because she is one of his "favorites." She had so many tickets she had leftovers when we left! They had all sorts of games and fun fair foods. I think she really enjoyed mommy and daddy time.
On Saturday I was able to trim up all our bushes and found a mourning dove and her two eggs in our tree beside the garage. I read up on them here. They only lay 2 eggs at a time and we should have babies in about 14 days or so. Gabi was excited to see them. It seems we always have baby birds around here somewhere. Ben was able to go fishing with his dad - caught some keepers - a meal for his dad and brother anyways. They had a good time regardless.
In the afternoon we headed to Chad and Amber's house for Presley's 2nd birthday party. They had yummy cupcakes and the kids had a fun time playing on her new swingset. Amber's sister took some VERY cute pics of the kids - the one of Gabi is gorgeous! Thanks Jenny!
Today was church and we used Ben's gift card from the wrestling team at Outback Steakhouse. Very good prime rib! Gabi wanted to go with grandpa and daddy fishing on Saturday but they left so early...not good. So Ben decided to take her and Tyler for a little ride on the river this afternoon. We'll see what they end up with...I actually think it is starting to rain!
