Weekend

I love Sunday nights. Get ready for the week, thoughts of the fun weekend.
Friday night we had spaghetti with the kids and then watched Transformers. It was such a good movie! I was really surprised! And it was nice it was PG-13. None of us had seen it which was a surprise because the kids see everything in the theaters.
Saturday the kids and I just hung out for the day at home while Kevin was at work and then Tyler went to work and I took Makenzie to Dexter's for a bit.
Kevin and I watched the game...GO BLUE! What a great game huh?! No matter what side you are on, you have to admit it was an awesome game to watch!
I picked Makenzie up around 7:30 and we watched Evan Almighty. Such a cute movie! I loved it!
Tyler got home from work around 11:30, I made him an egg sandwich, and we all watched SNL for a bit.
Sunday we woke up and went to late service and then went to Target to buy gifts for our Operation Christmas Child. You pick a specific aged girl or boy and fill a shoe box full of gifts. The kids and I decided to pick the 10-14 year old boy. We figured everyone picks the little ones. There was a suggestion list so we got him: colored pencils, mechanical pencils with refills, pens, notebooks, playing cards, calculator, candy and a Tigers hat. Makenzie added a note explaining the Tigers hat and letting him know we would be thinking and praying for him. We are adding our picture and address as well.
I made some super yummy potato soup and then we all put together a puzzle. I had two poster size puzzles from Disney and while during a scene of Evan Almighty, I remembered the Lion King one with all the animals coming to see Simba. Unfortunately, I couldn't find that one but 101 Dalmatians was still fun. I could tell Kevin was a little hesitant when I suggested it but Makenzie was all in and Tyler had fun sometimes.
Tyler mentioned while we were eating that no one can eat a piece of bread in one minute because it soaks up too much saliva...Kevin and Makenzie did not believe him so they tried. I will not tell you the results, it is something fun to try. At least it is if you have teenagers...
