MOPS, pumpkins, zoo, a wedding, and our anniversary!

No more renters in the house.  Such peace!  I haven't felt this homey in my house for a long time.

And it was all in time for our anniversary this weekend, and our soon-to-come baby!


Friday it was my first time at MOPS in the am.  It was cute and so nice to chat with other mamas, and Ava got to play with tons of other kids her same age.  And, in the afternoon, it was totally time for the pumpkin patch!  We played and ate messy caramel apples, and it was a perfect day.

Saturday afternoon and night we hung out at a friend's wedding.  It was in a park pavillion on a river, and was beautiful!  Ava played all evening with the other kiddos at the little park and got good and messy!  There are no pics yet, because we left our camera (moment of panic).  It is traveling with the bride and groom on their honeymoon, and will be back Wednesday.  Until then, phones are taking its place.


Yesterday, I made myself get up early with my Jer and our Ava at 6am.  We chilled in the house for a bit, and then drove up to Oshkosh.  It was breakfast at Golden Corral (better breakfast than I would've thought), then to the little zoo, and a quick stop at Goodwill.  And it was time to drive 25 minutes back for Ava's nap.

The afternoon was relaxation, laundry, football, and moving our living room things into the actual large living room downstairs (instead of it all being in one of the upstairs bedrooms). A half-price Chicago-style pizza for dinner at home while we listened to the rain outside.

I'm feeling total urgency to do fun stuff before baby gets here.  THREE weeks to go!  (Less than that would be good, too).

What an amazing weekend with my little family.  And so nice to come home to... no one.
