Rain, Really???????????????????

It has been raining for what seems like weeks.  And it never fails that it only rains on the weekends.  So since it was raining this weekend we did not do much.  Saturday we went to an Estate sale where husband bought some Military junk stuff.  We then went to Mall of America where we both tried on some tennis shoes but he is the only one that got some.  We then went to Home Depot and the grocery store.  We came home and rested and ate chili for dinner.  Sunday morning husband went and got us Sonic for breakfast cause I was feeling a little under the weather.  We then did some things around the house.  Nothing exciting just the usual chores!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 


We don't have anything planned for this Holiday weekend.  I plan on working Monday just for extra $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and since we  don't have anything planned.  Maybe if it isn't raining we will go to the lake for the day and relax!!!!


Our visitor's trips are getting closer and closer.  We have planned most of the trips.  Husband doesn't think that the guys will want to to go Mall of America but you can't come all the way to Minnesota and not go so we are Going!!!  My brother says that if you come to visit you have to have a stuffed burger so we are taking both couples to have a burger.  It's going to be  a blast and I cannot wait!!!!!!!!!!!


Then a few short weeks after our visitors are here I will be going to Houston for my cousins wedding and get to see my other cousin that I have not seen since Christmas.  I also have plans to see some friends.  It is going to be a fun weekend!!!!

Deep in the Heart of Texas

The Stars at night, are BIG and bright
Deep in the Heart of Texas



The prairie sky is wide and high,
Deep in the Heart of Texas


The Sage in bloom is like perfume,
Deep in the heart of Texas


Reminds me of, the one I Love,
Deep in the Heart of Texas


The coyotes wail, along the trail,
Deep in the Heart of Texas



The rabbits rush,around the bush,
Deep in the Heart of Texas


The cowboys cry, "Ki-yip-pee-yi",
Depp in the Heart of Texas



The doggies bawl, and bawl and bawl
Deep in the Heart of Texas.


My weekend in Texas was amazing and much needed.  Of course I gave these 3 little kids tons of love.  The run down of the trip went something like this.
Thursday- Mom picked me up from the airport, we grabbed something to eat and went to a few stores in Lubbock and then had dinner at Thai Pepper. We then went to The kids house and saw them and took Crim home with us for the night.
Friday- We woke up and had a breakfast burrito from Rudy's and did more shoppoing.  Heather met us after lunch and we did more shoppoing and then went to 50 Yard Line for dinner.
Saturday- The boys had baseball practice so us girls did some more shopping then met the boys for lunch and then went to moms to decorate Easter eggs(yes, late but we were celebrating Easter) and cooked out.
Sunday- We had Easter at moms.  I cooked pizza and wraps for them all.  heather swears it was the best meal she has ever had.  Then we had an Easter egg hunt. 
It was all a blast and I am so thankful that I am able to make these visits to Texas.

(For some reason Coleman and I sang Deep in the Heart of Texas all weekend so I thought it went perfect for this post!)

Almost there.......

We are in DFW as I type this. We are on our last leg of our trip. It feels good to just be in TX even if its just inside the airport. It looks like the sun is going to be shining for the few days we are here. I am glad my body needs as much Vitamin D as it can get.

Can't wait to see my 3 little friends. It doesn't seem real that I actually get to see them today!!!


Husbands plans have changed a little as he won't be going hunting. His maternal grandma is in the hospital so he will be spending time with her.

Looking forward to eating,sleeping,shopping and enjoying the outside for the next few days!!!!!
