Gas and glass, Mama Makeover and Ice Cream Date! Oh my!

Just as quickly as the weekend hit, it was over.  Funny how time works like that.  Friday evening we attempted to chillax because we knew that the weekend would be crazy busy.  And crazy busy it was.

On Saturday morning, we woke up early.  Travis had a fundraising event at the NEX shopette.  They are raising money for the unit Holiday party, which will be held at the Hale Koa this year.  Hopefully this means that more of the members of the unit will be able to attend this year.  The event was pumping gas and cleaning the gas.  We had breakfast together before he went and the girls and I went home and watched Lemonade Mouth on the Disney Channel.  And snuggled.  It was nice. 

That afternoon we had lunch at the NEX complex before running some errands at the NEX.  Time got away from us and before we knew it, it was almost bedtime.  Crazy...

Sunday morning was chill.  We got out of bed late and decided to hit the mall.  We went to Book Off! and bought more books.  (as if I need anymore, right?)  I am a firm believer in "you can never have too many books."  It's true.  I scored Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Fantastic Mr. Fox and Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry for $3 total.  AWESOME!  I've got quite a nice collection of books for the kiddos.  I hope that they love reading them as much as I did! 

After eating lunch, we hit the other part of the mall.  It was there that I decided it was time for a Mama Makeover.  So, I scheduled a cut, color and style.  I went in with tri-colored hair and came out with chestnut.  I love the color and cut.  It's so manageable!

We finished the day with ice cream at Coldstone Creamery.  I had my usual of course.  As did Travis.  But, Annika always changes her flavor up a bit.  Her choice this week was Cake Batter Ice Cream with Chocolate Chips.  She is so zany!  I love that she always tries something different!  We went home with full bellies.  Upon arriving home, we were set to watch the show that we watch every Sunday it's on:  Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.  But, it was not on this week because of the breaking news.  Good breaking news.  And I'm going to leave it at that.

All in all, it was a terrific and crazy busy weekend.  I'm thankful to be able to spend time with my lovebugs!

A hui hou!
