On the go!

The title couldn't fit our crazy schedule any better. It always feels like we constantly are 'on the go' but yet, we've learned to adapt to that as being our normal. Between us both having full time jobs, Laekyn being in first grade, homework, cheer leading practice twice a week, game every Saturday, volunteering at the field, birthday parties, Church, school, photo sessions, editing sessions.. not to mention the everyday parenting duties. It just seems like we keep a busy and full schedule. Very rarely do we ever get to sleep in so when we do, we take full advantage of it. Take this morning for example, we laid there and just enjoyed the feeling of not having to jump up to the sound of an alarm. The morning was so relaxing I even posted that it was Saturday. What in the world was I thinking, it was clearly Sunday. My mind had just rested much more than it's used to obviously.

This weekend was no different. Friday night, we had Laekyn's friend Zoe over for a sleepover. We took the girls to the fair and had a ball. Much to our surprise, they weren't so tired when we got back and it was after midnight before they finally stopped talking and giggling and got some shut eye. Saturday morning Laekyn had a game so we went to that and then afterwards, we had a birthday party to attend to. The birthday party was fun, the kids really enjoyed making sand art! There are photos posted on my Facebook if you're interested in seeing them. Saturday evening we drove out to the mountains to visit Kasey's dad and his family. We enjoyed some smoked chicken and typical country sides (green beans, mashed taters, mac 'n cheese and slaw) and after dark we made s'mores by the bonfire. Had a wonderful time!

Today, we slept in so late that by the time we got up and moving it was time to head out. We missed Church and was supposed to be at my dad's by 1. Well, we didn't get there until 1:30 but regardless, we had fun. We ate delicious home cooked chicken wings, celery and carrots and was supposed to watch the Dallas game. The gals ended up in the kitchen just a talkin' while the boys were in the living room watching the game. It's great to catch up! Although I missed watching it, they won and I was still stoked. Once it got dark, we started a bonfire and made some s'mores. For some reason I like making them but I'm not a huge fan of eating them. I guess it's the marshmallows. I've always liked them in my cocoa but that's about it.

All in all, it's been a busy weekend like I stated earlier but it's been spent with some of our family and friends. That's how it's supposed to be. Oh!! I almost forgot. I also got interviewed tonight for a senior project. I was asked to be a mentor to one of my little sister's friends, such an honor! :) Another exciting thing about this weekend is that today is mine and Kasey's 9 month anniversary. Crazy how time flies.

Fall has officially begun and I couldn't be more thrilled with where I'm at in life. I know we don't make much time to blog but we're going to attempt blogging more so stick with us. Thanks for the love so far! Hope your week starts out wonderfully. Good night, y'all!
