The Weekend What

We've had such a nice weekend that I'm going to have to include Friday while giving you the what. =) Friday morning, Evan won a character award at school for integrity and leadership. I'm so proud of him! Friday afternoon, Karsyn, Addi, and I went shopping with Nana. We made a trip to JC Penny's, Hobby Lobby, and got ice cream at Braum's.  (Thank you Nana!)  Our main focus was Hobby Lobby, as we are trying very hard to get ready for the upcoming craft fair. Nana, Aunt Ashley, and I are making hair bows and tutus. Evan and Payton are making pot holders. Here's a little look at what the kids and I have been making.

I've been trying to get as many hair bows as I can sewn together, so that I can just take one evening to finish them out by hot gluing on the backs and centers.  I really like the way this red and zebra bow turned out.  I can't wait to see how it looks finished.

We had a lot of fun spending the afternoon with Nana.  Addi and Nana are two peas in a pod and the conversations between the two of them are all kinds of funny. We left Nana's house to pick Evan and Payton up from school.  They had both had a great day!

That evening, we headed to our friend's house.  The warmer than usual weather was perfect for a cookout at "The Wiggles."  It's such a blessing that our little family of 6 has their little family of 6 as our best friends.  What a great night! (Thanks Kim for having us over!)

Saturday morning, was game day!  (Thank you so much Grandma for coming and helping me out!)  Payton played at 10:00 a.m.  Her team was playing my niece, Jessi's, team.  Jessi couldn't make it to the game, because she had sprang her ankle the day before.  Payton's team won 34-4!  They did great!  Payton got fouled and got to make 2 free throws.  The Ref noticed her shoe laces were untied.  If you know my Payton, you know she doesn't get in a hurry (and I mean EVER!) and she took her sweet time. LOL!  She did so good in the game and her teams remains undefeated.

We went to lunch at Subway and then we were off to the soccer fields.  Evan's team tied 3-3!  We have one last soccer game left next weekend and then Fall Soccer will be on the books.  Evan really enjoyed playing and he can't wait to play in the Spring.  Here he is in action.

After the soccer game, we enjoyed the rest of our evening at home.  At one point in the afternoon, Addi came running in the living room as fast as she could saying, "Oh no!  There's a bear in our house!"  She was talking about this cute little bear.  (Don't mind the left over treats from the soccer game on her jacket...and yes, it got cool again.)

That leads us to this morning.  Evan and Addi were being so funny this morning.  They were laying on the couch telling all kinds of silly jokes and laughing for the longest time.  These two are just down right crazy together.

We aren't going to church this morning - I think Karsyn is coming down with an icky cold.  Other than her starting to feel bad, it's been a great weekend.  What did you do this weekend?
