We had a really nice family wedding this weekend. The only part that wasn't great was all the driving. We drove there (8.5 hours) on Friday and back yesterday. But we did have a really fun time.
DS legit looks like he's been on a hot vacation. The kid is bronze. Haha so lucky.

Pizzaslut- I hope J feels better soon and no one else gets sick so you can enjoy Vegas! Happy Anniversary jediRunsforWineandCarbs, I usually don't care much about outside bugs that don't fly, but I googled wolf spiders.... ummm fuck that, burn it down. I hate ants too Betweenthelines. Until you can get someone out you can spray your floor it white vinegar and water, or put lemon slices down under the counters. We usually rub lemon juice along our windowsills and any entry points and it tends to help a lot, but it'll just make your floor sticky. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

On the topics of wedding, DH and I did a sweetheart table. We also didn't have bridal party. I think people thought it was weird and I vaguely remember getting a couple of comments. But we had a smallish wedding- any bridal party we would have had would have been most of our guests who were friends. And we didn't want to pick.
We were lazy wedding planners.

Hell to the no with bugs. We got these random beetles in our house. We try to keep the leaves away from the house but we are always finding bugs and spiders. Little Bones knows how to get a paper towel and throw the bug away. I trained him early.
When DH and I rented a townhouse, we would get these super gross camel crickets. All the yuck. And the moved fast and jumped.

taketheshot that wedding seems poorly planned. And I totally agree that the DJ/band can make or break the whole thing. Ick to some of those songs!

I'm toying with the idea of setting up a small business for band bookings but I need a name...

- Wedding- We had a band who had literally everyone at the wedding dancing at some point. But I'm sorry it was such a bust, and I agree 8 is too late for food.
Normal work week here. I need to order the kids' headphones for the plane ride, I don't know if I should get the same color so they don't fight or different colors. I am also hoping for rain, because I am tired of sweating my balls off each time I walk outside.

Took the kiddos to the library this morning. It was a bit of a debacle but we survived (I feel like that's my motto for this summer). My sister and her family will be here this wed-sat and our house looks like hell's half acre, so I need to clean big time today. FX for long naps!

Most days, I feel like it's been a good day if we all survived. So the kids drew on the wall and had goldfish for all three meals? Meh, could be worse. Parental high five for getting through another day! Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Nothing like starting our Monday at 3 am with a sick kid, amirite? Both my kids suddenly have coughs that wake them up a million times. Don't they know it's June.

Hope everyone had a good weekend! Ours was busy but fun. We had lots of family time, and the weather was great. Our deck is all finished, I love it! So B has stopped eating fruit. He already doesn't eat any vegetables. I am beyond frustrated. So far bananas are okay, but I tried strawberries, grapes, blueberries, and oranges and he spits them all out immediately and says "no". Awesome. And I just bought a ton! I guess I'll be making smoothies tonight... Hopefully it's just a phase. DD went through it and she's now just over 3 and eating almost alll the things again. She survived on air, cereal, and bread for a while tho. ETA: does he also refuse smoothies?

So Jack sounded awesome and I think I can finally chill the f out. I think I might start participating in N17 again. I've avoided that group for the last couple weeks. On the subject of Weddings- H and I were the only 2 in attendance- we got married in St. Lucia and spent 12 days there. We had both been married before and spending money on a wedding isn't something we really wanted or could have afforded. Our St. Lucia trip was perfect for us.

Such a busy week last week. We 2 weekends ago cleaning up the house for the home inspection, and then I was in Chicago for work for 3 days, and then we had tickets to an event Saturday afternoon....This week is going to give last week's a run for it's money. The appraisal on our new house was today, so I had to clean that up before I left this morning, and tomorrow afternoon we are picking out all our plumbing trim for the new house, THEN I have to be to church to volunteer for vacation bible school at 6:00. I have that tomorrow, Wednesday, and Thursday. H has softball on Thursday so I have to bring DS with me (DD will participate). Then next week I have another work event, in town at least! Maybe life will slow down by 4th of July. UGH!

My mom said J slept a few hours and woke up seeming to be in a good mood. He's eaten breakfast and lunch and is playing. I hope it was just a fluke because I don't want to have to take off tomorrow and I don't want to get sick myself.

I definitely popped into August '17 today on accident and was alarmed at all the baby bump requests. It's cool if you have one/want one/are actively working on one. I do not, and I won't bow to such peer pressure.

There is about 20 minutes left on the warning, but it looks like the threat has moved past us and the rotation on the radar has disappeared.
