Although this wasn’t the most fun weekend I’ve ever had I’m still sad it is over. Saturday started out bright and early with lots of car shopping. Ugh! Auntie Stacey babysat the kids (thank you SO much Sissy) so Jeff and I could try to get a new car. Car shopping sucks! We found the car that we wanted online and drove 40 minutes to the dealership only to find the car was sold the day before. Seriously. You’ve got to be kidding me. Jeff test drove a few cars and decided on a Chrysler 300. We had to order it from California so it should be here next week (hopefully). I am SO glad that is out of the way. Whew!

While the babies napped I FINALLY got my hair done. I haven’t had it colored in a REALLY long time, so this was a BIG change. I had the underneath dyed black with dark dark brown low lights put in the top. I really like it darker and now my sisters can’t say I have “hippie hair” anymore. It is still really long, but the ends are now healthy and soft again. I don’t know why I don’t get my hair done more often…it feels so good when I leave the salon…it just takes FOREVER to get it done.

Saturday afternoon we hung out at home and watched a little tv. This weekend we had an extreme heat warning so the freak thunderstorm we had for 20 minutes was an awesome surprise. It rained and rained and rained really hard for 15 minutes and then stopped as suddenly as it started. Heaten and I played in the [dirty] gutter water the entire time, stomping and laughing. It was great!

Sunday morning I had a family photo session and I felt SO bad for the poor little girls. They were 1 and 3 and it was SO hot, but they were troopers as were their Moms and so far the photos look great. When I got home I was just TIRED, HOT, and itchy from rolling around in the grass (I’m allergic to it, blech). While the babies napped I worked and then we took the babies to Bucca di Beppo for the first time. Jeff had never been and ended up LOVING it. The babies/kids did SO good. This was the best they’ve ever been in a restaurant. I am hopeful that eating out is soon going to be fun instead of constant work.

I feel tired, tired, tired, and hot. The rest of the night will be vegging in front of Big Brother with a tall glass of water and some chocolate. YUM! Hope you had a great *cool* weekend!!
