Happy Friday!
What are you girls up to this weekend?
Re: Happy Friday!
Today is graduation for the preschool I volunteer at! I'm in the office now but will be going over for graduation and then probably leaving at lunchtime. Tonight will just be cleaning, organizing and starting to pack for vacation.
Tomorrow, we have to be in lower Manhattan by 8am for the NY Brain Tumor Walk. Mark has a soccer game in the afternoon and then we have a party/bar hopping in Philly at night. We got a hotel for the night so it'll be a *little* less driving.
Sunday we're going to stop at my favorite farm to do some cherry picking on the way home and then it's my last free day until vacation so we'll be getting ready for that.

ETA: Kate, sounds like a really fun weekend. Congrats to your preschool class! Those graduations are always so cute.

My sister's dance recital is on Father's Day. So annoyed about that.
Tonight and tomorrow we will be cleaning and doing errands
Sunday: My sisters recital and then dinner back at the house to celebrate Fathers day.
Hopefully the weekend is somewhat peaceful.
Today - I might go to BuyBuyBaby to return a gift and pick up some stuff we still need, then probably just relax, read, catch up on DVR, and make dinner.
Saturday - We might go into Baltimore for the air show and War of 1812 anniversary events.
Sunday - not much, probably mass, laundry, relaxing.
Sorry, I've been MIA for awhile. I think life has settled down a bit so I hope you'll have me back!
Today - working 1/2 day, lunch with a friend, running some errands, grocery shopping and cleaning. We will also go to my dad's so Ryan can mow his lawn and spend some time with him.
Tomorrow - going to the Quad Cities for Ryan's aunt's wedding. I reallyyyy don't want to go and am trying to think of every excuse possible to skip out. Ryan told me I can't though
I just don't want to get the "When are you guys having kids?" question a billion times.
Sunday - Coming home from Quad Cities. Maybe swing by my dad's for a bit. Relax.
Have a great weekend, ladies!!
Today - SIL & her family are stopping by to visit since they are driving through this area on their way to a wedding. Then going to a consignment sale for kids in hopes of finding a rock n play to hopefully help Landon sleep better.
Saturday - Friends are coming to visit to meet Landon, then the rest of the day will be working on packing. ONE MONTH until we move. eek.
Sunday - Father's Day brunch at a place we have always wanted to have Sunday brunch at in the area. We are finally getting there at 6 years of living here. Than L & I will be hanging out while DH goes golfing as part of his Father's Day present.
Kate I'm jealous that you are able to visit New York and Philly in the same day!
Today: I am home today, no sub call. Going to visit my friend and her new baby later!!! I am beyond excited. I am a little nervous about trying to navigate Mass General though, it's huge! Then tonight DH is finally home after being gone all week.
Tomorrow: We are heading to CT for the weekend. Some of my extended family from Sweden is here visiting (I've never met them) and we will be seeing them. I believe we are going to FIL's at some point.
Sunday: I'm not sure if we are doing much for Father's Day, my dad would rather do nothing! But we are going to my aunt's in the afternoon for an "American BBQ" something the Swedes really wanted to do! Then it's back home Sunday night to gear up for my last two days of school!
Today: It is rainy and gloomy here so I think Mackenzie and I will just stay home. I'll attempt to get some cleaning done and I'm almost finished my granny square crochet blanket so I'll try to work on that a bit too. Tonight I'm going with my sister to our other sister's baby shower.
Saturday: My friend's 30th birthday party! We are getting pedicures during the day and then she's coming back to my place and we will get ready and then we are going out for dinner and drinks and dancing. My sister is babysitting M so B gets to come out too!
Sunday: Not much planned for father's day. Maybe take Mackenzie swimming and continue with our "do everything you can that you won't be able to do when she is in a cast" plan.
Tonight: After work I am picking up Rusty and Parker and Parker is taking him to Longhorn for his father's day dinner. Then we are going to get a shirt made for my FIL and then getting ice cream.
Saturday: We are going to the new aquarium (one of Rusty's father's day gifts). Then we are having dinner at my mom's with her parents for father's day.
Sunday: We are going to the zoo in the morning with my in-laws then lunch with them for father's day. Hopefully we can get our friend to come over Sunday afternoon to help put up the basketball goal I got Rusty for his birthday in October. I'm ready for that thing to get out of the garage!
I somehow need to find a time to clean and do laundry.
Today we have to go into town again... ugh.
Tomorrow we are spending at the IL's, hopefully on the lake, although the weather isn't agreeing with us at the moment and I have a feeling it will be miserable tomorrow as well.
Sunday - Father's day... we were supposed to be staying over at the IL's house, but we are finally starting to get Wyatt into a good bedtime routine and I'm not willing to compromise it. FIL & MIL don't like to hear Wyatt so much as whimper, so I know that they wouldn't let me do what I need to do to get him to sleep at their house. So we'll probably just have a quiet day at home.
Today, Work this afternoon, Graduation BBQ tonight
Tomorrow: Stay at home and hopefully get some house work done and some sewing.
Sunday: Another low key day at home and church.

Today: I'm just lounging around, just got back from Vegas late last night so I'm exhausted. My hunny's afternoon job isn't ready for him so he ended up getting it off and is now on his way to me (I just woke up two hours ago by the way, hehe).
Tomorrow: Hanging out with the man in the morning and then supposed to head out to my best friend's in the afternoon but kind of thinking I may rearrange that b/c Sunday is Father's Day. I usually go out there for 2-3 days but dont want to intrude on their Father's Day... so I may just go another weekend.
Sunday: Father's Day... I have no father... so just another Sunday. This is a tough day for me, not even sure I want to venture out much and be reminded that it's father's day... We'll see
today: work, then yard work with DH
tomorrow: taking all our yard debris to the monthly pick up the city hosts, then driving to hometown to return FIL's truck. I am hanging out with my family while DH goes with BIL to get the last of his stuff from ex GF's
Sunday: David's working so Dex and I are going on an adventure to a local state park that we are having my company picnic at later this summer. I want it more fresh in mind than the last time I went (with just Maggie) as I start to plan events.
I had my procedure today and it went well. It only ended up taking 20 minutes and he was out talking to E while they wheeled me to recovery to wake up. I woke up in about 10 minutes. I had a check in time of 6-procedure time of 8 and we were checked out of the hospital by 9:30. It was the best. We got home and I was still so sleepy so I fell asleep and woke up around 2. Best nap ever!
Nothing is hurting and I'm feeling like normal so it's all good around here.
E has a softball game tonight so we will go to that.
Tomorrow Lucas has his swim lesson at noon. Afterwards we don't have anything planned but I'm sure we will do something.
Sunday I will cook E breakfast for father's day and give him his gift from Lucas (which we haven't made yet). lol I better get on that.
Today was all day PD and now we are on Summer break, but I don't really have much of a break. I have Monday off and then three days of PD. Spa day with my mom on Friday so I have that to look forward to -- then two more days of PD (maybe 3, but I may cancel 1) the following week.
Tonight: Supposed to go to a Zumba party for the owner's bday. I'm more in a go out to eat and drink lots of wine mood. We'll see.
Tomorrow: Retirement picnic for a coworker I forgot to rsvp to -- so I hope they let me go.
Sunday: DH golfs, then dinner at my parents -- cooking out. I'm bringing an app and dessert. Making peanut butter cup cupcakes and maybe Texas caviar? Any ideas for an app welcome.

I know who I get my health advice from!
What are you looking at?
Today: stayed a bit late at work, did groceries on my way home, walk to the mall to pick up a few more things and get some exercise, play "Portals" with DH after he gets home from work
Tomorrow: hopefully FINALLY do some much needed work around the house, buy my dad a Father's Day gift
Sunday: church, going over to my parents' house
Tonight: Errands (aka hunting down every tube of A&D cream in a 50 mile radius...we go through that stuff like it's water!)
Tomorrow: Celebrating Father's Day with the in-laws, then staying overnight. Hopefully getting in a Target run as well.
Sunday: Celebrating Father's Day with my dad at our favorite restaurant!
