Busy Weekend

This weekend was really busy for me.
With weddings, house hunting, baby showers, bbq's, baby blessings...
My weekend was a fun chaotic.
All the chaos actually started on Thursday.
I got off work, picked up Dee, went straight to Ogden to meet with our loan officer.
After getting the details for our pre-approval, we grabbed dinner and headed back to North Salt Lake to see Dezzy and his beautiful bride Libby.
We got to relax a little bit and watch the olympics when we got home.

Friday, we went house hunting.
It is soo much more fun when you know you are ready in every way to make that giant leap!
I was kinda stressin out because we had 5 houses that we were looking at and I was worried that I was going to have a hard time narrowing it down to one.
The first one we looked at has good potential and not a lot of updates to do.
Plus a nice yard for Mya to run around in. :)

It was like a double edged sword....the first house was great but it was the first one...we still had 4 more to go to!
And the very last one looked amazing in the pictures! (but pictures and in person are totally different)

Luckily, it was easy after the first one.
The next few were too small, could smell the mold growing (this house actually made me sick! especially with my "Super Senses"), the foundation wasn't built up enough or was sliding.
The first house was the best and is the best out of those houses we looked at! 
Whew....
we got lucky there!


Saturday

We got up at 7:30 to go to the Roy Days parade with Mandee and the kids which started at 9:30.
It was really hot....
oh man!
Someone was passing out fans that had their company logo on it so I sported that all day.
The firetrucks are always first. 
I don't think I have been to a parade where the firetrucks aren't first.
So we got to see Carter and Matt on the truck!
And....they ALWAYS throw us a ton of a candy when they get to us!
One of the other firefighters actually threw half a bag of taffy at our feet!
We felt a little guilty so Mandee opened the bag and dumped the candy on the road for the other kids around us.
Don't worry, when Carter was done with the parade, he brought back 1 1/2 bags of taffy and said that the firemen still had an unopened box!
It was a blast!
We hung out at the station to cool down for awhile before taking off to Babies-R-Us to register.
Dee's grandma is always asking us what we need so we made it easy for her to see.
It was fun going around the store with the gun scanning things that we want or need without looking at the price. :) 
After we registered, we grabbed some lunch, headed to a spa to get a gift card for my friend, ran to zurchers to get balloons, then Dee dropped me off at Emily's for her baby shower.

We are 3 months apart and soo excited to meet little Baby Morgan!
She will be here in about 5 more weeks!

Woohoo!
and on a side note, I only have 3 1/2 months left!!! HOLY SMOKES!
I was at the shower until about 5 when Dee brought Emily's dog back(we watched him overnight so Emily didn't have to worry about cleaning up his hair, Siberian Husky), we helped clean up a little bit more then took off to Mandee's for a BBQ.
And of course, we went to the fireworks.
It was the first fireworks I have seen all year!
We were at Lagoon instead of the fireworks on the 4th and because I get up so early for work and the 4th was in the middle of the week, I went home and went to bed while Dee went to his Mom's for fireworks.
The joys of working 7-3:30 plus a 45 minute drive both ways.... (NOT)
These are the only pictures that I took all weekend because pictures were the last thing on my mind.


I was extremely tired after running around all day. Dee got to take a 2 hour nap...


 Grandpa and Brody

My phone actually does a decent job with fireworks!

Sunday
We had to be up again at 7 to get ready and be down to Lehi for a baby blessing.
It was soo early...
Especially when I was looking forward to sleeping in this weekend.
oh well. I'll try again this coming weekend.
The baby blessing was gorgeous and Kayden is adorable.
Dee and I got to the house before the rest of the fam so I got to hold the star of the day for a little bit :)
Can't wait to hold my Little Man!
It was a gorgeous day and had some delicious breakfast food!
After the blessing we went to Dee's Grandma's to take a nap and wait for dinner.
Dinner was delicious and seeing the Newman fam is always so much fun!
But I was ready to go home and go to bed...
My bed was calling me.
Unfortunately, my Little Man has started getting stronger and he decided he wanted to kick and play around 10 when I was trying to go to sleep.
Dee and I were laughing so hard because he was moving so much!
It was awesome!
And It's fun that Dee can be apart of the pregnancy and feel his little kicks and punches.

On this weeks agenda:
Tour of Avalon for Master Esthetics 
(I've been wanting to go back to school for almost a year now but it hasn't worked out. Hopefully I can get everything figured out and get an idea of when I can go back to school)
More house hunting
(Even though we really like the Sunset house, Dee wants to look at some more to make sure that is the house that we want)
Bear Lake
(His fam is going up this weekend and we are thinking about it)
Hopefully sometime this week I'll be able to relax and watch some more Olympics without worrying about something. :)
Happy Monday!
