Spring has sprung!

Finally a weekend of nice weather without TOO much wind! Steve has been antsy to get his shed all done and it does look amazing. He stained the concrete and put the TV back in the shed Friday afternoon.
Friday night we invited over our friends Lisa and Jared and their boys Colton and Jett over for dinner and to catch up! The kids played good and we hung out by the shed in the awesome weather. Presley and Colton got along pretty well, Presley plays good when she can find kids who will do what she tells asks them to! But Piper was NOT herself most of the night and ended up throwing up and laying in her bed watching Annie for most of the night.
By the time we got the girls in bed it was almost 10 and then Steve had invited over some neighbors to hang out. I went to sleep and he stayed up and entertained the neighborhood until 2 am. :)
 
Saturday morning I was the first one up at 8. Then we had an issue with a bird that got stuck in our dryer vent, so that was fun. Eventually we all got up and ready and headed out of the house to enjoy the perfect weather and a Saturday with no plans! We got in the Jeep and went to the Saylorville dam to walk around.
 
Typical Piper.
Then we headed over to Cottonwood to play on some of the playsets there! They ran around and had fun in the sun!
After that we headed over to 1908 for lunch on the patio! The kids did a good job despite the fact that Piper ate nothing. She seemed to be feeling fine but once we got home from lunch the attitude came out! She was not a happy child for most of that afternoon. We did some more hanging out by the shed, I read my book, Presley played with the neighbors and then Sam, Scott and Boston came over for a while. We ordred pizza and hung out by the shed. Many neighbors stopped by to chat and all the kids played so good. A great weekend to break in the shed and summer! :)
 
Sunday I had to go into work. I took Presley with me since we were going downtown to see Annie at the Civic Center that afternoon. We got to work about 9 and she did good keeping herself busy with coloring and my phone. We headed out about 11 to meet Sarah and Collins for lunch at Legends. We were able to sit on the patio on another awesome weather day and then we went to see Annie!
The girls did ok.....they got bored. I knew Annie was going to be the 'original' Annie and there are alot of political sceness in that movie....and there was in the musical too. So the kids just don't understand all that and find that boring. They both struggled to get thru it but we did and then we went to get ice cream before going home! :)
 
Piper was again not feeling good. More stomach issues and when we got home at 4:45 she was sleeping. She never naps on the weekends! Then we had that battle of, do we let her sleep? do we wake her up? We let her sleep and about 7 pm she woke up. Yikes. She finally at something, took a bath, hung out and is now in bed again, so hopefully she'll be 100% back to normal tomorrow!
 
Overall a great, laid back, perfect weather weekend and hopefully we have many more of these to come!
