Back to work!

After a four day weekend with my little man, today was my first day back to work. Twice a year our bank puts on a loan promotion for auto loans (Rates as low as 4.99%!) and our desks become COVERED with applications. Promotion actually started yesterday but I had taken off work to spend the day with Matthew due to our daycare being closed (Post Training Holiday). You can ONLY imagine what my desk looked like when I got there today. Total chaos.





Over the weekend, Matthew and I cleaned up the yard, attended a BBQ, went on walks, painted his bed, etc...


Was SO much fun! Here are a few candid pictures from the weekend:

Yes, that would be my child blowing bubbles in the beer/pop cooler with one of my bosses at the BBQ. Such positive influences in my life...

Matthew washing his car while I pulled weeds.

This is my new ROCK BED! Sweet huh? LOL! Actually, I could not manage to keep anything alive in this entire flower bed due to the sun setting DIRECTLY on top of it every afternoon/evening. So I ripped everything out and covered with with River Rock. It needs a few more bags but you really should see the before pictures. SO not even posting it because it looked awful. Yes, and that is a dent on the side of my house. Believe it or not, someone actually RAN INTO my house and never bothered to tell us about it. We live on an Army Post so it was reported to the MP's but it still strikes us as a very odd thing for someone to do.

Matthew's bed was the last major thing we did. It was a nasty off-white color before. I had bought it from a coworker about 3 years ago and Matthew never really cared what it looked like. After sighing at the poor thing every day for the last TWO years, I finally decided it was time for a paint job. Fire Engine Red! Matthew LOVES his fire engine bed. He gets so excited to get into it. Thinking of finding a steering wheel for it sometime this week/weekend.

Yesterday we also went to the LSS. It is about 60 mins away so you can hardly call it local. I picked up a few sheets of paper I had not received it, as well as some Maya Road goodness and a few Scenic Route pieces. LOVE them all and cannot wait to start creating with them!

Hope you are having a great week so far!

Will post more soon!

Love you all!
