Could this be the one??

So I have been one busy woman these last few days! I will start off with what we did this weekend but if you keep reading you will find some good news hidden inside!

Friday- Started out with plans. Mike was planning on making a meatloaf. Some of you may say or think YUCK but oh no no no. Mikey makes one hell of a meatloaf! But we didn't' quite have all of the ingredients so Mike's mom Jeni came over and we went to the store. She also brought over to squashes for me to make. I had never made them before but I never realized how easy it is, and how yummy! After that we were going over to Adam and Cassy's to see their new house! It was so awesome! Cassy decorated Corina's room so cool! She painted the top half of the wall pink and the bottom half brown, then she stenciled pink butterflies on the bottom also. It was so cute! It just a really neat! We spent some time with them but had to call it an early night because Mikey had to work on Saturday morning.
Saturday- Mikey had to work so I was thinking oooo I get to sleep in with the bed all to myself! But apparently Kenny and Molly thought otherwise! At 7:30 Kenny started opening all the damn doors in the house (she is very talented, try to keep her outta your closet!) and this must have excited Molly because she decided to start doing laps, LOUD LAPS, through the house! Think about this, our duplex is SMALL and so you can hear everything that happens from one end to the other. Finally she ended her last lap standing up on the side of the bed just waiting for Mommy to wake up! So I did, but that doesn't mean i got out of bed!! Molly and I cuddled until Auntie Stephenie woke up then she came in and we talked until Daddy came home. He got home about 10 so that meant it was time to get outta bed! Of course he was hungry so I got to make one amazing breakfast, prepare to get hungry! I made Bacon, Sausage, hash browns, and eggs with onion, green peppers, and ham! It was soooooooooooo very good! I think my dad possibly passed the great breakfast gene down to me! After breakfast I finally got going for the day. Mike had made plans with his friend Derek and Stephenie and I decided to take Molly to the park so she could go down the slides! Whoo Hoo! She just loves those slides! We met some very interesting and inquisitive children at the park. They wouldn't leave miss Molly alone long enough to poop! It was fun and Molly just loves kids! After the park we headed over to Goodwill to get some books! Then we headed out for ice cream! I LOVE LOVE LOVE ice cream! And since it was the last day of summer, why not celebrate with some Ice Cream! We went to a different park over looking the cedar river to enjoy it while Molly enjoyed some ice water! It was so cute to watch her drink around the ice cubes! After that we finally headed home. Mike arrived shortly there after and we headed out to dinner at Fazolis (we had coupons haha). After we ate our fill of bread sticks we headed home for Mike to grab a quick nap so we could go back over to Cassy and Adam's house. This time we could stay as late as we wanted or they wanted us to anyway. I got lucky this time and Corina was still awake when we got there and because she loves her "auntie Carrie" so much i got to rock her to sleep. I informed Mike that I now have the "babies"! We had fun they moved to a very small town called Readlyn and Cassy and I walked up to get her mail downtown and then went and played at the park. Parks are always kinda creepy after dark! It was a really cool park and i decided that Molly would really enjoy the slides and want to bring her to play there sometime. Well we had a really good time and stayed there entirely to late!
Sunday- We had a very abnormal Sunday! We had important things to do! We actually helped Laura pack and move back to Mama's house! Man I forgot how much work moving is! I informed everyone that they would be helping me move soon! Well I hope! Of course the fist day of Fall is one of the hottest we have seen in a while! But we all agreed it had been good exercise! After that we headed home and I cooked dinner and then collapsed into my favorite chair for the remainder of the evening!
Monday- This was a Happy Monday! It was a very busy day for me at work and Mike was not feeling well. We decided to go look at a few houses in Grundy Center anyway. We looked at 4 houses in total and all but one were some that our realtor found for us! It was kind of like a surprise around every corner! We looked at all different size houses. One was on a slab. It was a really nice house but we want a basement, we live in Iowa you know! Tornadoes! Another was and awesome house but had a tiny kitchen! The next one was beautiful, there had been a fire so they completely redid the whole inside, it had a giant whirlpool tub. The downfall...Only one very small bedroom! When we finally got to the last house, we were in love. Completely out of our price range but the seller is very eager! It needs some love but really all that love will be to the outside for now! I'm going to keep the rest of the details a surprise so you all can come visit and see it if we get it because I am pretty sure we are going to make an offer on it! Ok I will defiantly keep you all updated! :)
