the weekend

We had a busy weekend full of family, yardwork, and Easter, so here are the highlights.

Friday: spent the day with my parents and my niece, who drove up from Georgia to celebrate Easter with Emma. Rain ruined our plans to go to the zoo, so we went to Frankie’s Fun Park instead.

They recently remodeled and added a Johnny Rockets, so we had yummy hamburgers before spending roughly $18 for Emma to ride a little carousel*.

* We bought a little token card and put $20 on it, and Emma used up almost all of it riding this little carousel. Poor Ken and Daddy just stood there as she went around and around and around … while Mom and Sydnei and I played games.

We had a wonderful time, and if Emma hadn’t needed a nap BADLY, we would have definitely done more.

Saturday: Ken had tennis at a local tennis center, and we went along thinking that they would have a playground. But they didn’t. And all the rain had really messed up the courts, so they were going to have dry them anyway.

We looked for earthworms for a while, but then they brought the big blower out, so we knew the earthworms were about to be goners.

To kill time, I took Emma to the laundromat to wash our big down comforters. They sure are pretty, but I am never buying another piece of bedding that won’t fit into my washer.

We were both SO bored!

But she was a trooper and made the best out of it – with some McDonald’s hash browns and corn pops.

If I had to be stuck at the laundromat with anyone, I’m glad it was my little munchkin.

Once we got done there, we went to Memaw & Papaw’s house to get the truck so we could get a load of mulch. The rest of the afternoon was spent mulching around the garden and all of the front shrubs & trees.

That night, E went to bed early while Ken and I collapsed to watch a few episodes of Rome on DVD.

Needless to say, the Easter dress that I had planned to make for Emma never got finished. Oh well.

Okay, Emma is DONE with me typing and editing pictures, so I’ll have to save the Easter pics for tomorrow.

If you’re my friend on Facebook, you can see most of the pictures there. :)
