It was a good refreshing time this weekend all together as a family. This was the weekend before Jared's monthly cleanup. It only comes once a month, but boy does it roll around a lot faster than what I would like :) This coming Monday through Saturday he will pretty much be out of pocket and very busy in preparation for it. So I am very thankful that we were together the past few days enjoying each other and partying it up Olinger style! :)
Friday night I was hoping for Jared to catch on to my promptings for us to go out for dinner at a restaurant. I tried to break him with my "invisible money" speech but he wasn't going for it. We laughed a lot and it was fun! He suggested lentil soup so I looked in the pantry and what leftover veggies we had and threw something together (no recipe) and it actually turned out quite yummy :)
Lentil soup...nothin like it
Little Mac not so much into it. He would look like this while we were makin him eat it, and then also say in his sweet voice "mommy this is the best soup you ever made I want you to make it again" lol!! He did so good and finished his bowl. Dad decided a good treat would be Sweet CeCe's and we had a buy one get one free! Love those coupons!
On our way for ice cream. It's right around the corner from our house and one of our favorite restaurants Thai Bisto. Another perk ;)
Saturday we went to a "Gotcha day" party for some friends of ours who adopted locally and were celebrating her being in their family for this first year. It's a really cool story and their daughter is absoutley beautiful and full of life and squeals! Wish I would of gotten a pic of her but missed out on it.
They had an ice cream truck come. It was fun! All the kids were ready...
Addy and her friend Hannah. So precious
There they are again and Mac's head
Ice cream...yum, yum, yum
Micaiah seconds that above statement! Thanks Patrick and Ashley for the invite we very much enjoyed it all!
Saturday we decided to stay at the home front again so we picked our fresh lettuce from the garden and made salads that night. I have to say I am loving this "gardening" experience!
Movie night! Jared scored a $5 steal on a movie at Walmart. You see those 2 faces?? That's why we have to limit their movie time. They get sucked in so easily.
Sunday about to go to church
Fun times working in the nursery this morning! Sweet kids!
Snapped a few pics after Sunday lunch....
Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!
Glory be to the one true God
