Long weekend

I wish I could say we did something incredibly fun over the 4th...but we didn't.  We actually had a relaxed little break.  Lance was off after Wednesday and just went back today.  I'm glad he got that break because dealer meeting is coming and that means non stop working.  On the 4th we just stayed around here which gave us time to nap, set up the swing set, and play in the little pool.  Friday lance golfed with the guys so Nana and I played with the boys.  Landon got the new Wii resort sports game so Bennett and I watched him play that.  I looked over at B and he was balancing this ball on his head.  He cracks me up!

On Saturday I woke up with a bug and had to spend most of the day in bed (feeling better today but still not back to normal).  My nephew had his 6th birthday party so Lance went ahead and took the boys.  My sister called to tell me it was a wild party at first.  Lance had got Landon out of the truck and was going around to get Bennett out when his doors locked.  His keys were in it and so was Bennett.  Luckily Lance is calm and thinks fast.  He told my sister to call 911 and he called onstar.  Onstar was no help which irritates me to no end.  The police got there fast (kid in hot car probably scares most), but they were unable to unlock it.  So Lance told them to just break the window.  They said the police officer used two things but couldn't get it to break so Lance got a hammer and finally broke it.  I think the whole ordeal was maybe 10 minutes and thankfully everyone was fine.  They said Bennett took awhile to warm up to people after but eventually he did.  Landon said he thought the police were coming to arrest his brother...ha!  So right now Lance is driving his moms truck and we will get a new window put in once we call.  Luckily a window is easy to fix and we will be getting his locks checked because this has happened more than once...just never with our babies in it!

My parents brought the boys home that evening and they ended up staying for a yummy supper.  Lance grilled red fish, shrimp, and Nana made a seafood recipe she found this week.

And I found a new blog yesterday that I'm loving.  I've been following filmmaker Chris Wiegand as he makes his documentary called American blogger and he is introducing me to these fun people.  So the blog is thepinkloulou.com. I spent a lot of time reading her blog and a lot of $ buying some things she suggested...ha! 

Well the boys are both at school today and my sis said they were both having a rough time.  Luckily B got over it fast but Landon took longer.  He hasn't been to school since the 27th so he was just out of it.  But he better get used to it since mama starts in-service next week and then classroom work time is next.  Can't believe it's almost go time!
