Weekend time flies by...

School starts again tomorrow! I am awaiting my books, so this should be interesting because I have reading to do for both classes starting the first week. We had a good weekend. Saturday we went (along with my mom) to the Eastmoreland Garage sales. Me and my mom usually find out too late to go, but this year we knew ahead of time and had planned to go. Saturday morning Darren decided he'd like to go as well, so we all went! We were there for the better part of Saturday and the boys (all 3 of them!) lasted for about 1/2 the trip and then Darren took the babies to get lunch and play at the park and once they were worn out he came back to get us and we headed home. It was a lot of fun, I love garage sale-ing! And I found an outdoor Little Tike's house for a steal of a deal that the boys are SO excited about, so it made the trip worthwhile (not including all the other stuff I got that we didn't need.) There weren't too many sales with tools or much manly stuff, so it was definitely not as fun for Darren, but he had a great time with the boys. With his new work schedule he misses them so, and he got some good quality time in this weekend to make up for it. Saturday night Darren stayed home with the kiddos and I went to a bachelorette party with my girlfriend...we had a blast! We went on a party bus, which takes you from place to place with no cover charges and the experience was definitely one of a kind!! Sunday after breakfast the boys, Darren and I headed out to run a few errands, and then later in the afternoon we went to my second cousins birthday party. It was a good time, because of the weather (with a few rain showers) we didn't bring the boys swimming trunks, which disappointed Braeden a bit. Brooklynd fell asleep on Darren while the guys watched a baseball game inside! Braeden had lots of cake which made up (mostly) for him not being able to go swimming! I can't believe the weekend is already coming to a close. I have been having bad allergy attacks lately, I hope whatever's blooming stops, the sneezing and congestion is wearing on me! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!

Grades Are In!

My grades are in and I got 2-A's and 1-B! I am fairly happy with that, would have loved to pull an A out of my Anthropology class, but I half expected a C from it and I found the telecourse more difficult. All in all I am glad about the grades. Right now is my Summer break, so I begin school again next week. (What a quick break that was!) Darren is working nights still, but is #2 on the union list and awaiting a call any day now! He is excited to start his journey in his new job! We had a fairly quiet weekend and celebrated Father's Day with my family at my parents house with a quiet dinner. We had a little unexpected grass fire on Saturday afternoon, nothing to be alarmed about...it started from Darren & the burn barrel, but it was eventful and it took Kody about 15 minutes to head back outside. All in all it was out in about 10 minutes (from beginning to end), but it startled us all a bit! No one was in danger, so I consider it a lesson learned. This weekend Darren's sister is coming to visit possibly with a friend and I have a bachelorette party I am going to (fun, fun!) My cousins birthday party is Sunday and should be great fun for the babies if the weather holds out, as there will be swimming (cross your fingers!) We hope everyone is well. Take Care!

School's Out for the Summer!!

I am SO happy to be done with school (for the moment at least.) Summer Term starts in about a week and a half and I am happy to have the break. This last term killed me! I took my last final last night and am happy that it's over. I have had NO time to do anything as you can tell by my lack of blogging. We have also been very busy with the start of summer and there's more to come, I am sure. Last weekend Darren, I and the kids went to Kim and Seans for a BBQ and the kids had SO much fun playing and afterwards the adults went out to celebrate Sean's birthday! We had a lot of fun. Darren has started a new job, he works 1pm-9pm so that has been an adjustment, and he has completed his second part of school as well. He hopes to get a call from the union any day now as he is 4th on the list (down from the 30's)! He is anxious to start working in that industry and it will be nice when he is back on the schedule we are used to- he had to miss softball yesterday and was disappointed about that. For the summer I am taking 2 classes and both online. I learned my lesson with the telecourse...some classes are better suited for normal classes! This weekend I am taking the boys to a friends birthday party and of course we will be celebrating Father's Day for Darren and my dad! Next weekend Darren's sister visits and we are very excited for that. We hope you are all well. Take Care.
