It seems like every week and weekend fills up fast with activities. Since returning to Texas last year, I don't always do as good of job blogging about these things so I'm going to try and get better.
Friday, Caden and I were able to meet up with my friend Jocelyn and her two boys, Levi and Joel. Caden and Levi are the same age and it's always fun to get together and let them play. We ended up going to the museum because it was kind of cold. The kids had a good time.
Friday night Collin and I went to a Love and Logic class and originally the second half was going to be on Saturday morning. However, so many people were not going to be able to make it Saturday morning that we changed it to another night. That being said, we missed Caden's friend's Naomi's birthday party because we had already planned on going to the parenting class. Instead we had a relaxing morning at home. Caden's friend, Nash, from church, had a hunting birthday party at 3pm for his 4th birthday. It was really cute. Not too long before we needed to leave for the party my friend, Kylee, called. She wanted to talk and hang out so we invited her family over for a last minute dinner. She has two boys who are not too much older than Caden. Caden had a blast playing with them. This was really the first time they've been able to hang out. He loves older kids and especially playing with big boys. Sometimes last minute plans work out well.
Sunday we went to church and small group. Nothing too much to report, just a nice day in general.
Today (Monday) Collin was off for President's Day. We thought Caden didn't have school so we all went out to breakfast (not something we do often) and then to Calloway's to get some plants and look at their trees. We're planting a garden and in the planning stages. While at Calloway's my friend texted me to let me know Caden had school after all. I asked him if he wanted to go and he did so we dropped him off after we bought our garden supplies. This gave Collin and I time to fill our pots and plant our crops. We're going to move our fence and build a garden on the side of our house. We actually have a pretty decent size yard. We want to plant a peach tree or two, probably two so they can cross-pollinate and a pear tree. We'd like to also plant a large shade tree. Caden wants a lemon or lime tree. We'll see.
Here are some pictures from our weekend.
