Carnivals, Father's Day,Thrifting and a Job

ahh...catch up time. As per usual the running around in circles till you fall to the ground in exhaustion has been filling our days. The past few days I have been so tired it's all I can do to put the kids in bed, kiss my husband and fall into bed (sometimes with my clothes still on) and fall asleep. Let me fill you in on why this happens.

Friday we had a carnival at Kennedy's preschool for the end of the year. It was put on by the teacher's and was so much fun. They surprised the kids and had two inflatable water slides which they thought were the coolest thing EVER! Face painting, carnival games, snow cones and a BBQ followed. It was all free for the students and they parents/siblings. So fun! even little man (Brendan) won some prizes. He thought the plastic back scratcher he won was a golf club but, hey whatever he wants it to be! Here are the kids covered in their sticky, wet fun...

Father's Day was a long fun day. I cooked breakfast for my guy Saturday morning because Sunday morning the favorite men in my life went golfing bright and early. Kennedy made Scott a hat at school. It was so cute, she had decorated it with fabric markers and was so proud when she gave it to him. Scott made me fall in love with him even more when he wore it golfing Sunday morning. Kennedy was so excited when he wore it. Here's some pictures of the boys...

While the boys were playing golf my mother-in-law and I went to do our favorite activity...thrifting! We packed the kids up in the car with the red wagon and snacks and headed to Long Beach for the monthly antique market. We had four hours of glorious bargaining for fabulous items that we did not know we had to have till we saw them! I bought a wire basket...

and vintage Victorian postcards (3 Easter and 1 St. Patrick's Day), a vintage apron with red butterflies on it (pictures later) and a vintage floral table cloth (pictures later). I also went shopping in my parent's garage and came home with this..

I am in love with it! It is perfect for holding my quarter panels. I already lovingly arranged them by color (because I am anal) and am deciding the perfect spot to display it.

On another note (I am very talkative tonight!) I got a job today! Nothing full time because I am a selfish Mommy and don't want someone else taking care of my children. Get this... I am going to be teaching PE! Yes you read correctly, don't read it again and stop laughing. I will be teaching PE 4 days a week for 2 1/2 hours a day. It works out perfect time wise and my sweet mother-in-law said she would watch the kids for that short time ( I am okay with the grandma's watching the kids). So that's that. I think I have spilled everything that's been going on. even if I haven't I'm sore you are all thinking this is the longest post ever does she talk like this at home. And yes I do!
