Insta Friday: June 24, 2011

life rearranged

Phew!
What a week.
It was awesome and busy and I loved it!

Do you like my fancy photos??
There is no InstaGram app for the Droid yet,
but I found Snapbucket this week and I love it!

I kicked off the weekend last week with an
overnight retreat with the ladies from my ward.
It was EPIC!
40+ women, REAL 911 calls, pipe cleaner rings, food (which I didn't eat!), and lots
and lots of laughing, snorting and reality TV talk.



I was so wasted the next day, but Will had to work,
so I had to function.
I dragged my rear-end back out of bed around 9ish
and took the kids to the swap meet.
Um, never again will I get to the swap meet after 10am.
It is too BUSY!

Then we headed to Mean Ladies fabrics
(as my friend Steph calls it - very fitting)
and picked up the fabric for a big project.


Oh funny story about the fabric store,
The Girl had to go potty about a dozen times.
Well, they now lock the bathroom and you have to go and get
the key each time.
BLAST!!!
I had about had it by the end of that fabric store trip.
Curse you Mean Ladies fabric!

That night we went to a good bye party for my "brother".
He's my husband's sister-in-law's brother-in-law.
Does that make sense?
We love him to death and are sad he's shipping out for 2 years.
But they sure do know how to PAR-TAY!



We started swimming lessons Monday!
I love swimming lessons.
It means summer.
Except for that time we did a session in February.
Never. again.



During a Target run to find mini squirt guns I saw this
yummy looking beverage staring at me from behind the
cooler glass.
It wasn't as yummy as my favorite Diet Poison.



All week they were telling us that on Thursday there would be an
extreme "Parking Problem" during lessons due to a swim meet.
We got there 45 minutes early.
There were more parking spots than I've ever seen in that parking lot.
::SIGH::


Luckily my fab Lisa Leonard bracelet arrived that afternoon,
(a gift from sweet Lisa herself!!!)
so I played around with taking pictures of it.

If you can't read it, it says:
holla create funky sew blessed

We did like 3 pool days this week and I can't believe I didn't snap one photo!
Well, there is always next week!

Happy weekend!

I'm going to start calling it mean ladies fabric. Can I work in something about them not knowing how to measure or cut accurately? And I reeallly wanted pictures of that retreat you mentioned.
