A Ballin' Weekend!

FRIDAY

***

Detox Water

I drank the water (and coffee, seriously I would be a hot mess without my coffee) through out the day and that was it.  *Until the game that night.*  I woke up the next morning and felt good just a little tired.  The water was very refreshing, not sure how much detoxing went on, but I do feel good.

***

Since we had plans Friday night I got Hadley to take another nap. (I could get used to this.)

My craft while Hadley napped, yet another pinterest idea.

When Andrew got home we enjoyed the best thing about Friday nights in the fall, High School Football!

My sweetness walking into the game!  

*LOVE*

Making this game FOR REALZ! 

Jenks v Union brings such a crowd they held the game at the Tulsa University Stadium.

This bad boy took it up to a whole new level of awesome, yep it's a turkey leg!

After we ran out of food Hadley started getting a little crazy.  Like the kind of crazy where you're so tired you know you can't stop moving, singing, jumping, yelling, laughing or clapping because you might just fall asleep.  So Hadley started making faces.

Then she kicked over my drink, spilled her drink on the guy in front of us, started crying about her spilled drink and... we left.  =)

SATURDAY
We went to Big Splash that morning but I forgot my phone, aka my camera, so I have no pictures. =(
*Sad Story*
Hadley was the punch line for some mean joke 3 little girls were playing that day.  They were constantly coming up to Hadley, getting her attention and then running away laughing.  I heard one say she didn't want to play with Hadley and to go away.  Then later, Andrew and I both heard one say, "Come on (to the other 2 girls) we don't want to play with her."  If they weren't coming to her, Hadley kept trying to go play with them and they would either all splash her and laugh or just laugh and run away.  I told Hadley she didn't have to play with them if they weren't going to play nice and she said, "Mommy, I do want to play with them. They're my friends." *said with all smiles*
I felt horrible, I had no idea that kind of thing started so early. =(

*Drying tears and moving on....*

Hadley got yet another nap in before our GameDay officially began. (That's like 3 days in a row people!)

Since we canceled our cable a few months back (yes, not well thought out) we decided to try our hand at Buffalo Wild Wings to see if they may have gotten the inkling to buy the Hog game on PPV.

Before we left we snapped a few pics in our GameDay gear.

Sadly the Hogs are not top priority here in Oklahoma, but Hadley did find the Big Buck Hunter game to play with daddy, while we watched the beginning of the OSU game and enjoyed some tasty wings. (We also had feeds going on our phones to keep up with the Hog game.)

We'll just say right now Hadley is not going to be shooting any real bucks.  In fact, if she's anything like her momma she won't be shooting a thing.  I tried to go hunting with my dad and brother once and came home crying.  Give me a rifle and some tin cans I'm fine.  Give me a rifle and an animal and I'm D-U-N!!

After dinner we headed over to our friends', the Owens, to watch the Alabama v. Michigan game, while snacking on some delicious puppy chow.

The girls had fun playing and dressing up.

Then, we had a CamWow session, where we laughed for a solid 15 minutes, love it!

I don't think I'll ever get tired of CamWow, it cracks me up.

SUNDAY

We headed to church and then to lunch afterwards.  When we left the house for church Hadley asked where we were going and when we told her Bible class she yelled, "YAY, I love Bible class!"  Thank you Summer for staying with this group of kiddos the last 3 promotions Hadley loves you and your class!!

After getting back home we changed into our bathing suits for another day at Big Splash. (This is the last weekend for them to be open, we're not just that obsessed. Or maybe we are?)

Scuba Steve Hadley

Andrew didn't have to work this weekend so we got to enjoy lots of time with him. =)

This girl LOVES to snorkel!

MONDAY

Yes, this is part of the weekend because it's Labor Day!  Sadly Andrew had to get back to the grind, but you'll never guess where Hadley and I are going to go....

Big Splash!!!

We've had such a great weekend and I have loved having Andrew home.  Excited for more football weekends like this!!

Thanks for checkin' in!!

Weekend Update {Thanksgiving}

WEDNESDAY

When we got into town we met some family for dinner & dessert.  Then we hung out at Jolene and Ryan's house.  Mimi and Pap-pa came over and brought the girls an EARLY Christmas gift with some Jessie PJs & leg warmers for Hadley and Tangled PJs and leg warmers for Audrey.  

The girls and Rudolph watching Frosty the Snowman.

THANKSGIVING DAY

Jolene and I had made the pecan pie the night before and so all we had was the dressing to make before we left.  The boys went early to start the turkey (which we fried, yum). We headed over shortly after to Grandma and Pap-pap's for the parade, football, Black Friday deals, and of course FOOD!

Andrew & Jonathan watching football and us girls' mess spread across the living room floor.

The girls and Mimi!

Working hard in the kitchen.

After dinner Pap-pa burned off some calories by bouncing the girls for a while.

And one of my favorite Thanksgiving traditions, GAMES!  We played a game of Skip*Bo, which was not only fun but very entertaining.

Jolene and I headed to Kohl's at 11:15pm for their 12am opening for Black Friday.  

Only to find out we really AREN'T good Black Friday shoppers.  We perused for a bit until a Kohl's worker came up and asked if we needed some help.  We figured they were a little alarmed by our lack of enthusiasm. When we saw the line had wrapped around the store in the 20 minutes that we had spent aimlessly walking around, we decided nothing was worth that wait and left.  

We went to sleep and I found some good deals with Andrew the next day around 11:30, which was much more my style of shopping.  I'm not a morning person.

FRIDAY

We met mom and dad for breakfast at Chick-fil-A. (Note: My parents had still not gone to sleep from the night before because of Black Friday shopping.)

Then we headed to their house to set up the outside Christmas lights.  

Hadley was a great helper.

Friday afternoon we watched the unfortunate Razorback game.  Although we may have lost I'm still proud of my Razorbacks, WOO PIGS!

That night Jolene and Ryan went out with some of her old high school friends and we had the girls. 

Night-time stories with Uncle Andrew.

SATURDAY

Ryan's family came in town so we had to watch the OU game.  We did a little more shopping and finished the day staying up and playing Phase 10 with Jolene, Ryan, Andrew, and my little brother Jonathan.  

FUN TIMES!

SUNDAY

The girls before heading out to church.

***

*SHOUT OUT*

Flagstone Church of Christ is where Jolene and Ryan go to church.  A little over a year ago the church I grew up in decided to plant another church in town to reach out to the community. (Northwest Arkansas is growing so fast and they believed the church needed to as well.)  Jolene and Ryan were some of the few who volunteered to go over and get the new church plant started and I just have to say the members of Flagstone have done an AMAZING job!  As I said earlier it was just a little over a year ago they started and they're already looking for another building because they have outgrown their current one. 

God is SO good!!

Sunday night we worked on putting up some more Christmas decorations I can't wait to show you guys all of them!

Here's a peak at Hadley's Princess/Barbie tree.

Thanks for checkin' in!!

Weekend Update!

FRIDAY

We had a family night at the fair and Disney on Ice and it was so much fun!

We tried some delicious fair food:

Then Hadley rode some rides:

   

Andrew did the big hammer thing and ended up breaking the board. 

He still won Hadley a prize.

Cotton Candy was a must!

Andrew shared some cookie dough with Sadye and they were buds the rest of the night.

Erin and Emmy getting ready to go into Disney on Ice.

Hadley was getting excited!

Disney on Ice was AWESOME!!

Hadley was glued.

Friday night me and some girlfriends spent the night in the city and went to the outlet malls Saturday morning.  It was PERFECT girl time!!

SATURDAY

The girls and I slept in and spent the rest of the morning/early afternoon shopping.  

I kept up with the Arkansas game via ScoreCenter updates, WOW what a game!!  Woooo Pig Sooie!!!

That night we went to a friend's to watch the rest of the games.

Hadley rockin' her Razorback tattoo from Micah.

Jon played a little tune on the toy guitar for the kiddos.

 This is what you get when you ask the Hadster to share her Toms.
We're gunna have to work on that, ha.

Sweet Hadley Joy talking it up the phone.

This is a big step in Hadley in Jon's relationship.  We are now to the cookie sharing stage.

Thanks for checkin' in!!
