Weekend of Work and Play

I just thought I would post some pictures of this weekend. Although Glen still had to work on Friday, our weekend kind of started on Thursday. Jacob spent the night at our house Wednesday, and so when my mom picked him up on Thursday Kade said "I want to go to 'hajo'!" So the wonderful mother she is, my mom offered to take Kade from Thursday until Sunday. Kade had so much fun! My mom said he did great except in the evenings when he would get tired he would ask for me and to come home. So at least I know he loves us! I would talk to him every day and he sang us songs and reported what he was doing. Jacob, of course, is his bud and they played all day, and Jacob would race Kade to see who could finish their meal first to get Kade to finish his food (he used to be such a good eater, and now he just gets too busy and doesn't want to eat). Even though Kade's home, he still talks about this dog they saw in Ajo. So Kade was gone, and Bryson sleeps from about 8pm until after 10am (just waking up once to eat). On Saturday night he went to bed at 7:30pm and woke up Sunday at 11am. It was awesome. We got to sleep in plus take a nap before getting ready for church. On Thursday night we watched a movie with Tim and Cara. Friday night Esther and Jesse came and we traded watching kids to have a date. They spent the night and then Saturday morning Esther and I went to some yard sales. Now I have to brag about my husband a bit. Our HOA spotted us on four different projects: rust on screen door, cables can't be showing, fix gate, and the roof on our patio (still need to do this). We got an extension and have to get them done by the end of August. So Glen dedicated Saturday for some of those things. Although they weren't that hard of projects, they still were time consuming and outside in our great 20 million degree weather in July. What made him even greater was he let me shop basically all day and for a couple of hours while I was gone he worked with Bryson on his back. And then about 9pm when he was done and came inside, he didn't even complain that the house was a wreck. He really works hard and does such a great job. I love him so much. Thanks babe. On Sunday, my dad brought Kade to Esther's house in Maricopa about 5:30am and Esther offered to take him to church with them. So after church, Glen and I took our crock pot meal to Esther's house and picked him up. Esther was nice to provide all the side dishes, dessert and she even made salsa. Thanks Esther and Jesse. We ate and then Malin and Sarah came over and we all played BUST! It was so fun, but everything has to come to an END!ha. (notice the first picture.ha)

Bryson has this thing about always going head first. This is Emma's baby's pack n' play.

Video of Bryson falling in the baby pack n' play!

Kade fell asleep holding on Emma's princess ball.

Glen scraping off the rust and then he repainted the screen.This is the old board that the gate was supposed to latch on to.

New one. I'm sooo excited my gate actually closes now!

Bryson's avocado face!
