A week to breathe...

After weeks and weeks of working like crazy, I get a little break this week. Maranatha is closed this week, so besides 2 afternoons at the daycare I'm free! Today I went with my friend Meredith to Detroit to bring our friend Audrey and her son Levi to the airport to fly back to Virgina. I wish I could have gotten on the airplane and gone right along with her! Anyways, it was great spending time with her and catching up with Meredith. When I got home, Laura called me up to go blueberry picking with her and the boys. We got some nice berries (none of Peyton's ended up in his bucket; his belly instead!) After that we made a stop to Walmart and then Culvers for dessert. One of the best moments of the night was driving back from Culvers with Johnnie Cash blaring from the speakers. In the backseat the two sweetest voices sang right along with him. These boys know every single word! Honestly it is the cutest thing ever!!

Well, the rest of the week I plan on taking it easy. Of course I have a list of things to do, but I plan on having some fun too! :)

Girls Night Out!

Last night I had a much needed girls night out. SOOO much fun. I met my friends and we started with a little shopping at Old Navy. I found 2 cute shirts at a great price! After that we needed some food in our bellies before we tackled Target. We stuffed ourselves at Johnnie Carinos. Then we were on to Target! I love Target and it's even better when you are shopping there with friends. Of course I couldn't get out of there empty handed... a purse, pj top, and cute bangle bracelets. After that, we left for the main reason for the girls night... Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2!!!! It was so good! I loved the first one and this one was such a great follow up. And of course, the only way to watch it is with friends!

Like I said earlier, it was a much needed night out. I'm getting so tired with my crazy summer schedule. I can tell it is really starting to take its toll. Part of that is my fault since I've been staying up too late. So, I'm going to listen to myself here... and go to bed! Good night! :)

Wicked- the best musical ever!!!

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wicked was amazing! I don't even know where to begin! The night started out with a stop in Grand Rapids at Johnny Carinos. Wonderful food! We made our way to Lansing where we caught the 8:00 showing of Wicked. Way better than I even dreamed it would be! The special effects, music, acting... absolutely breath taking! 3 hours later, we left feeling mesmerized! My friend Kevin bought the soundtrack so it was fun listening to it on the way home. Honestly, I would recommend everyone to see it! It is so worth it. In fact, I'm ready to go again! Anyone wanna go?!

Wicked!

I'm so excited... tomorrow is the day I have been looking forward to since Christmas! I'm going to Lansing to see Wicked! My friend Julie and her husband Kevin bought me and Julie's sister Lisa tickets for our Christmas present last year. So the four of us are making a night of it with first dinner, then the musical! I am very excited! I have heard nothing put praise about Wicked! So I will bring my camera and share my experience with you all soon!!
