Our House of Paine: June 2010

Busy, busy week!!

This past week, we did not take a break! It was fun, but I have to say, I was READY for the weekend! Monday, we went to Dinosaur World in Glenrose, Tx. The kiddos loved it but it was HOT! After about 5 minutes, they were all red faced and sweaty, but hey, this is Texas. Tuesday we went to a playdate at someones house and did Fathers Day crafts. Unfortunately, my creative juices were not flowing at all so we will finish ours sometime before Fathers day. :) Wednesday, I took Lexie to her first movie. She did wonderful! I was so proud. We saw Alvin and the Chipmunks, The Squeakquel. I know its already out on DVD, but what a fun experience. The Rave by our house has free movie showings for kids on Tuesdays and Wednesdays throughout the summer, and what better way to find out if your kid will actually sit through a movie, than free right?! Thursday we went to Amity's to watch her make a super cute birthday cake. And Friday we had a playdate at Cason's house. That is her favorite little boy, I swear. They are just precious together! We also had a babysitter that night because Dustin's roommate from when we first met, Harvey, was in town and we set out to Billy Bobs for some dancin' and a few adult beverages. I also got my first pair of boots (since the ugly Justin Roper boots in 5th grade anyway!)!!! I am SO excited, they are CUTE CUTE CUTE and super comfortable, which I was expecting blisters this morning, and am proud to say that I am blister free!! So that was our week. Today I have been doing laundry and recovering. Oh, and finally catching up on my blog! yay for me!!

(will post more pics later, I haven't put them on the computer yet!)

3 YEARS!!

My wonderful, amazing husband and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary on the 2nd of June. We had our friend Amity, or Amty as Lexie says, watch Lexie so we could enjoy a romantic dinner, sans child. I had asked for ideas of dinner places where I could dress up and not feel out of place, but not spend an arm and a leg. We chose Reata's, downtown, and it was FANTASTIC. I think it is probably one of my new favorite places for sure! We will also have a weekend at the end of the month, child free, to do some more celebrating. Happy Anniversary baby. I love you!

Graduation weekend!

So last weekend, Dustin's youngest sister graduated from high school. She will be going to Oklahoma State, and we are so proud of her! :)I guess becoming a mom has made me a complete sap...ugh..I actually cried (little tears). In public. yeah..so anyway, family came in from Kansas and Lexie got to play with her cousin Ashton. They had a blast. Tea parties, hiding in the bathtubs, chasing monsters (until they both started having nightmares at night, lol), swimming, shopping, and bounce houses. Fun and busy weekend to say the least. Lexie was sad to see Ashton go!

Summer time is HERE!

So summer time is here..and I would say Finally, but it is HOT. It never used to bother me, well not really, but now trying to entertain a 2 year old, and keep her cool, is a chore. Thank goodness for blow up pools, sprinklers, and snocones!!

Chalk time!
