What a weekend!

What a crazy busy and amazing weekend! Friday started with a note from Jeff in the bathroom telling me that Ruthy would be at the house at 10:00 and that I should proceed to go to Joyce's house. When I arrived there was a UPS delivery telling us to go to Panera for lunch and await further instructions. Then after lunch we got a text telling us to go to Cole's Salon. When we arrived, they took us back for manicures, then we got a call telling us to check the rear spare tire and in there were gift certificates to go shopping! We had the best day, then our husbands showed up and were dressed in suits and took us out to dinner. It was all because they love us and thought we deserved a day of fun! How lucky are we???!!!

Then we got to start our weekend of Baby Showers! Grandma Madelynn slept over at our house for the weekend and Garrett thought that was cool. Saturday we got to go up to Grandma and Grandpa Anderson's and see Susie, Ryan and Jude! What a fun day. We got to celebrate Uncle Ryan's birthday and see how much baby Jude is growing! He is so cute. It was so wonderful to just get to spend some time with them after the baby shower.

Then Sunday mommy woke up to a wonderful birthday breakfast. Daddy surprised her with some wonderful gifts, the best was the card he asked Ruthy to have the kids make. They used their hands and made me flowers, it is great and I will treasure it! Then off to Tricia's baby shower, she surprised me with a birthday cake and it was suppose to be her day. We enjoyed seeing her and friends. She is the cutest pregnant person! We cannot wait to see Ava!

Then off to Jills shower after that. What cute twins she has. It was fun to see all of our friends there as well! Then we finally got home at 5:00pm and had Olive Garden take out for dinner and a yummy cake that Jeff got me! Aislinn must be growing again because she ate her sweet potatoes last light and then a ton of cake (she REALLY liked that) and then she ate a whole thing of yogurt! She was cracking us up because grandma was not feeding her fast enough. It is now 9:30 am and she is still sleeping! Can you believe it!

What a great weekend! How blessed are we to have such a wonderful set of family and friends!

Are you sure you married my brother? I didn't realize he had that romantic side... :) You did deserve it, and hope that you get to enjoy that day at the spa again soon! It was so good to see you guys! Tell Garrett and Aislinn to stop growing so much in between my visits!
