Many Generations..

What an incredible weekend we had, I don't even know how to really put it into words but I am going to try my best, plus we have some photos for you too.

Friday--Ahh it's finally the weekend..Kypton and I went to my parents around 3 o'clock to hang out with my mom after she got off and went to the store.  It was movie and dinner night!  We watched "Joyful Noise."  I highly recommend it for everyone, it has a great message.  Any who, I decided to make a Pinterest dessert which was delicious!!

Bottom layer is chocolate chip cookie, then a layer of Oreo (not crushed!) then the top layer is brownies..this was AMAzing... It will be made again!

We headed home because Saturday was going to be busy..

Saturday..started at about 6:30 (Kypton, hates to sleep in on Saturdays, I feel like he knows his Dad is home all day and wants to get started with the hanging out!) We got up, got ready, we ran to the store to get some Doughnuts for the car ride for everyone, then headed to my Great Aunt's farm sale.  

Yes, we went to a farm sale and it was SO fun.  It was a hard day for my Great Aunts and my distant cousins as they were selling stuff their Dad and my great Grandpa had used and farmed with.  There were some tears shed by all but it was really a great day seeing family and looking at all the different things that had been collected over the years. My brother bought a saw that my Great Grandpa had taught him to use.  My parents bought some really old phews from an old church that they are going to refinish and my brother is going to make them a long table out of barn wood.  Here are some great photos from the day...

Chilln' on the tractor..




After we got home I have been really wanting Jethro's BBQ so we went with some of my family...my Brother, mom and I shared the Emmenecker..


I may have had an adult beverage as well, and at about 4:30 between drinking and being in the sun all day my body was hating me..I finally got back to sleep, then Dan said he was up really early because he couldn't sleep.  Well I needed to go to the store last night to get formula..butttt...I was a little to "tired" so that leads me to...

Sunday..Happy Mother's Day..first time I got to celebrate the day as a mom!  Started the morning playing with Kypton while Dan went to the store to get Formula.  Well, it was taking a while and I got to thinking...earlier in the week he asked me what I wanted for Mother's Day.  I said, "to spend the day with you and Kypton, and a large Mocha Frappe!"  Well, he did one step better.  At the store they were having a sale on Keurigs.  Get a pack of K-cups for free ($10.00) and get a $22.00 gift card.  Essentially it cost him $89.00.  I have been wanting one...well ever since I used my parents and that was a reallllly long time ago!  Well, I got one, I love it and that means no more $3.00 mochas from McDonald's! :)  We then went to the store (yeah, fun stuff!) we got our grocery shopping done for the next two weeks, then we went to look around at flowers... which I didn't think they looked that good anywhere we went so no money spent there.  Dan did accidentally break two pots and all I could think was, "great, we are going to have to spend $30 on something we can't even use!"  They were super nice about it and we didn't have to buy them!  We then went to my parents house for dinner with my mom and grandparents to finish celebrating a great day.  My sister got me some beautiful flowers that her boyfriend is going to come over and help me plant (he does landscaping.)  I'm very excited, as I don't have what they call a green thumb!  

All in all it was just an awesome weekend and the type of weekends I live for.  The nice weather helps too.  I love being with my family and love when Dan takes time off work to hang with us, even though I think sometimes he would rather work than look at flowers and people watch with me..hehe.. but that's what I love about him, he is so easy going and always there for support :)

Hopefully you all had a wonderful weekend and got to celebrate those Moms in your lives!


Love the Buchholz's =)
