Weekend Wrap-Up

Friday mom and I did our usually shopping trip. We went to Costco and stocked up. They had tons of samples, probably because it was Easter weekend. So we cruised around Costco with Hayes in the Bjorn and tasted all the samples. I think I only dropped food on his head a couple of times. haha. On the way out we stopped for Polish hot dogs and got a whole combo pizza to go.

Then we headed to Target to get diapers and get a shower gift. My cousin Garrett is getting married next month, and we are going to a bridal shower for his fiance next weekend. Then we stopped at Fred Meyer's to pick up the fresh stuff. That night we just stayed home, had pizza and relaxed.

Saturday was the opening day of the Farmer's Market, so we thought it would be fun to walk around there for a little while. I didn't find anything too interesting. There were quite a few food vendors with long lines. Jess and my mom tried some Indian food. The only food I wanted to try was the BBQ but it had a really long line, and it was $8.50 for a sandwich, so I just settled for a hot-crossed bun.

After the Farmer's Market Hayes and I met up with my friend Jessica and we walked around Lake Padden. It was really nice out. It felt so warm in the sun, but there was a chilly breeze coming off the water. My car said it was 50 degrees outside, haha. We walked about 2 miles, and man my shoulders were killing me by the time we were done. Hayes had also had enough of being in the Bjorn, so I had to take him out and just snuggle him as we walked the last 1/4 mile or so.

Hayes and I rushed home after walking, and went with mom to my cousin's uncles funeral (on her mom's side). Anyway it was at the ferry terminal and it was really sad. He died at 56 after a 9 month battle with Lymphoma. Of course Hayes was not in the best of moods by then, because he is not used to being away from home for that long, and he didn't really nap all day. So most of the time he and I just walked around the terminal. It was too windy and cold to go outside but it looked beautiful. I guess I should have taken a picture. We didn't get home until about 5:30 so we just sat out on the deck and drank a beer.

This is his new "pumpkin face"

Sunday we had nice weather again and we spend most of the day outside on the deck soaking in the vitamin D. We didn't really do much for Easter since Hayes is too young to care and Chris is still working out of town. I did dress Hayes up as a bunny though, I'm sure he will love that picture when he gets older! The work week is so much easier to start after getting to enjoy some sun.

 

I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend!
