Friday night was actually a pretty relaxing night at home. For those of you that know us well, you know Friday night is usually grocery night. However, not knowing how the evening was going to go because Mike planned on helping my dad unload hay, I went Friday morning to get groceries. I've got different strategies for how I handle getting groceries depending on where I go, when I go, and what I need to get. If I only need to get a few things I'll leave both boys in their car seats and put them both in one cart. If I need to get more and have to actually put things in the cart but it's busy in the store one will stay in their car seat in the cart, and I carry the other in the Baby Bjorn (thanks, E & LA!!). And, if I need to be able to put things in the cart but it's not very busy I'll leave both boys in their car seats and put them each in their own cart. It's usually not that hard to push two carts around, except when I did it this last time I had a not very good cart so it was a little more challenging.
Anyways, back to Friday night. Mike got done on time with work, and then only had one load of hay to help with, so we had the rest of the evening to chill!
Saturday morning my brother Eric, Mike, the boys, and I went for a run. We had a nice run around Zeeland. Eric and Mike did a few extra miles after running with me.
Saturday afternoon we headed up to Harold & Kara's cottage. What a perfect day to be there! It was hot enough to want to play in the water, but not hot enough to be miserable. We had alot of fun with everyone there, and the boys did great! They both stayed in the water awhile, although Logan did seem to enjoy it more than Caleb. They also took great naps, which is so nice.
Sunday afternoon we went to Eric and Lea Anne's house for a cookout. Eric set up a slip and slide (see videos in previous post) which we all had fun with. Well, not everyone went down, but those who didn't had fun watching those who did. :) The boys played in the kiddie pool for awhile and seemed to really have fun.
This morning Mike went on a 14 mile run with my brothers. Crazy! They ran out to Lake Michigan. My dad met them at a couple spots along the way for a water break. It was pretty warm and humid first thing this morning, not my kind of weather to run in.
This afternoon Mike stayed home with the boys while I gave a private photography lesson and after that I was able to go do some shopping by myself. It was nice to have a break! But, of course, by the time I was on my way home I was anxious to be back with my guys again. :)
