Weekend Recap

Friday: Watch the boys until 4pm, hang out with the Mom til' 5pm. Have sister and unexpected friend (Lisa), stop over, then decide to eat at Pizza Hut with the kids! Next, I drive up to my mom's house in Stanchfield, and we take the kids to Snow White and the Seven Dwarves at the Braham High School! HILARIOUS! The kids loved it, but we only made it to intermission because it was waaaaaaaaaaaaay past Shelby's bedtime!

Saturday: Hang out at home for the first part of the day, and attempt to get some things done around the house! Then my mom watched the kids so my sister and I could go baby shopping - for my sister:) - and then we ate at Victory 44, and I got home at about 10pm!

Sunday: Went up to St. Croix State Park with the kids. Made a pit stop in Rock Creek due to a puking her guts out incident by Halloran! We now know that she gets car sick on long rides....yay for us! St. Croix was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had a great day of bike riding, playing IN the river :), a little nature walk, campfire, food and then went to a nature talk about Beavers, Otters and muskrats! Brady stayed overnight with my Dad and Kathi, and we took the girls home (both zonked out 30 seconds after we left...no joke)!

Monday: Spent the day gardening! We have two small gardens now, one with veggies and one with herbs! Here's hoping that the seeds grow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ha, ha, ha! Planted some other flowers, made a trip to Menards and then had some neighbors, family, and friends over for a fabulous barbecue!!!!! Another Perfect Day!

Today: Watching the boys today, tomorrow and Thursday, then I'm all done with that! So, here's hoping for another great day!

There are two kinds of people: Part Two - The non-movers

Coffee cup in one hand, veggie/fruit smoothie in the other. No seriously, that's what I have on each side of me as I write. I'm smiling because of how funny this is, as it seems to also relate to this conundrum of a topic before us. There are two kinds of people, and there are definitely two kinds of beverages.  My caffeinated beverage on my left brings me a one sided joy that I cannot even begin to detail. I love my coffee. And I really do think it loves me back. At least for a while. As I peer out of the corner of my eye to the right, I see the greenish grainy drink to my right. Today the fennel seeds in it do not make it seem as dirty  I mean, like I just gathered them from the dirt without rinsing and sprinkled them in there kind of dirty. Maybe it was the splash of OJ I decided to add to it this morning. Now, I know that this drink loves me. It is good for many aspects of my life. Health, energy, sustenance, power. But I do not enjoy it as much. When I make my ...

There are two kinds of people: Part One

This topic has been on my mind for quite a few years, and I always tell my ultra hip (yeah right) self, that I should write about it. So finally, after this last revelation that, yes, there are two kinds of people in this world, I needed to get it off my chest. There are two kinds of people in this world. "But Megan?" you quickly rebut, "No there's not! There are so many kinds of people in this world. Short people, tall people, loud people, introverted people, French people, people who like food, people who are allergic to grass, dog people, cat people, this list is endless." And to you I say, "Well of course." But  here's the deal. When it comes down to it. We are all, but one of two kinds of people. And I'll kindly, yet firmly, break it down for y'all. There are two kinds of people in this world. And you WILL fall under one of these categories. Are you ready? Here, I'll set the scene. You are walking down the sidewalk....

A picture, a moment.

My husband and I went to Mexico last February. This was our last night there. Or was it? We had not gone on a vacation in 10 years! This photo is unique and amazing in so many ways. I had gotten a new camera, and all vacation, I would mess around with new settings. What time of day was this? Looks like a sunset right? It's not! It was a sunrise! I  had some strange setting, that I have not been able to replicate. But it made this look like our last night there, but it was our last morning. I awoke early so I could be on the beach when the sun came up.If I could keep a memory that included sense of smell, feeling, sound, and sight, it would be this, wrapped with a bow. I was the only one out there in the early hours, which was amazing in and of itself. I took a lot of other shots by the water, and a little while later when I was heading back, I turned around, and took a shot off the upper patio of the resort. And this is what I got. It is my favorite picture...
