Where did I go?


The past few weeks have been crazy!  And I neglected the blog for more than 3 weeks...oops!  As planned, we went to Lake Sara with my family to celebrate the 4th.  We did a lot of swimming, jumping, ice cream making, napping, eating, and fawn-watching.  The fawn up there was only a few feet from the house!  I love my family soooo much & it was a great weekend.
The next week Coco & I babysat my nieces Addie and Avry while my sister & brother-in-law went on a much-deserved cruise!  Wow, exhausting.  Everyday I dropped them off at a home daycare before work & picked them up after.  Avry was teething, Addie is 2, and we all ended up getting really bad colds.  It made for some late nights & I was completely wiped out.  But I love love love my nieces to bits so it was super fun to be with them.  Plus Cory got a diaper-changing lesson & even held down the fort by himself a few times so I could nap! Adorable :)  Our first day back home I missed them so much!  I think my body held out on the cold until I was able to actually be sick, because sure enough I felt like absolute crap all of last week.  I went to "Harry Potter church" on Sunday morning with Cory & my 2 awesome cousins from California who were visiting.  We had a jam-packed weekend with pool parties, mini golf + pizza, and a birthday bbq so a 10:30 a.m. show was the only time we could make it.  It was a sob-fest.  We loved it, I would watch it again right now if I could.
