The LONG Weekend Report

That started on Thursday!!!

Miss B had a match but it was over an hour from my school so I KNEW by the time I drove there after dismissal I would miss most of it. BOOHISS! 

Thank goodness for Husband and Minnie (for sniping the shots) :) They kept me in the loop!

She said she did great and even SPIKED IT! WHOOHOO!

I mean I wouldn't mess with two 5'10" 8th grade girls! :)

On Friday we started with a 2 hour delay... that then turned into a full on SNOW DAY. The 4 members of the Mouse House were SO UPSET. This pushes us to the END OF JUNE! 

BUT.... it meant that the gals Dr appt could get moved UP so they were not late for their Friday night plans of going to the USM women's basketball game... peep Minnie's face about GOING to the Dr and poor kid had to get a vaccine. Bummer. BUT... it was the LAST one....until college. What? Like WHAT EVEN?

Husband and I snagged a date afternoon/evening, Mexican food YES PLEASE, while the gals were at the bball game. On Saturday USM played again so Minnie went with Abbey and slept over. She met us at church and OFFERED TO COME GROCERY SHOPPING WITH ME! HIP HIP! Makes me WHOLE day when my gals wanna come with... add in some sunshine and fun party shades... it was a pretty spectacular 60 min round trip! :)

When we got home we were dying to try the new immersion blender I snagged at Marshall's the day before. Gals decided to make their own "Blizzards" with heath bar and Reese's pb cups... everything was GREAT....

UNTIL Minnie tried to do the tip the Blizzard upside down trick and her ENTIRE ice cream treat dumped into the sink. Oh.my.word. All FOUR of us were laughing SO hard....

speaking of laughing... we randomly stumbled across this free 7 day app we could install where you can play a few games... one of them is name that artist and song with a LOT of different genres... you use your phone as your buzzer and it was HYSTERICAL!

We all loved playing Jeopardy together and laughed SO MUCH this weekend! It was so fun!!!

Which one is naughty-er? The one who CALLED him on the couch or the one who IS ON THE COUCH!

GREAT weekend with a bonus day at the beginning! 

 

MVP

In the words of Minnie... "Most Improved Player to MVP in ONE year... huh. How about that."

So proud of our girl.... worked her tail off... 

Couldn't be MORE proud of our two gals... coming out of their respective seasons with Coach's Award and MVP. Well done ladies! 

 

Mostly Wordless Wednesday

I met with Loretta over break... my A1c was 5.6. 

T1D's just make it LOOK easy. It's not.

 

The Weekend Report

There are not many pics... and let's be honest no one is interested in this first one ESPECIALLY NOT HUSBAND...HAHAHAHA BUT...

 

A picture for Tamarah :) *wink*

Minnie was at the playoff hockey game so I was screenshoting (is that a word?) the entire Class A girl's basketball championship game. Cheverus came back from an 18 point deficit to win the gold ball (eye roll).

 On Sunday after church Husband stayed for the annual business meeting and Miss B agreed to come WITH ME to run some errands and gather food for the week... she can't go by Aunt Nancy and Uncle Danny's without a quick pop in for a squeeze... too bad neither of them were home! I took this pic and texted them... :) So cute!

Volleyball

 Apparently Miss B is playing volleyball!?!?! 

Game Day #2 hair before the bubble braids....

Came as a surprise to ALL of us but she had her first match on Thursday and she loved EVERY second of it!!! SIL L, Sky, Minnie and I were VERY confused but it was SUPER fun to watch her having SO.MUCH.FUN.

She did a FABULOUS JOB!

and her face had a HUGE smile on it the entire time!

She loved hanging with her friends!

and we loved watching her!

Next year in high school it is a fall sport... will she give up soccer for volleyball??? 

Guess we'll see...

Unintentional

 I didn't MEAN to be gone that long but lots of life was lived and photos to prove it... scroll below to catch up!!

Post-Op

Another two weeks has gone by... and Husband was BACK to the surgeon to have the stitches removed from his surgery. Skip this post if you don't wanna know the "gory" details. Kidding. 

They're not THAT bad and I've certainly posted WORSE.... 

On Monday, we headed out TOGETHER (because SNOW DAY whoop whoop) in the BLIZZARD. From our house to the big city it looked like THIS.... Roads were TERRIBLE.... I HATE being out in it... but off we went at 7AM.

 

By the time we got past Portland the roads were clear, it wasn't snowing at ALL and it was a whole new world! SO CRAZY!

The PA came in and took off the dressing and said it looked REALLY good. He had somewhere between 15-18 stitches which we were ALL really surprised with but she felt that it was closed and READY for her to remove them. (We didn't know that NOT taking them out was even an option until she said that so HAPPY that they were able to come out!)

She still put a layer of glue and steri-strips but so far it is looking really good and we are optimistic that this is the END of the journey with the "new hips". Now he just needs to stretch and work out those hip flexors.
