Weekend Wrap Up

This past weekend was a bit chaotic, a bit stressful, and I'm not going to lie- I'm glad it's over! The last few weeks, DJ has been home in the morning and able to take the girls to school. The last two weeks I have told myself that I'd get out of bed at 7, and get busy, but instead I've stayed in bed until 8. 

Megan came to tell me goodbye and I thought she looked adorable and had to take her picture. Megan's always had a fun sense of style, and I can't wait to see her come in to her own as a teenager. 

I spent my day at a hair appointment and then I ran to Hobby Lobby with a friend to buy supplies to make our first mums. Mums are a Texas homecoming tradition and they're huge! I'll share after I get Gretchen's made. 

After running errands, picking up kids from school; I wanted to get cozy. I found this top a few weeks ago, and it's so soft; plus it has thumb holes and goes a tiny bit off the shoulder which I love! 

Adalyn and I dropped off Megan at gymnastics, then ran to Target, Five Below, and then back home to pick up Gretchen- drop her off at her babysitting job, back to get Megan, dropped Megan off at friend's house, then ran back across town to get gas, and finally, I took Adalyn to Raising Cane's to redeem her free kid's meal that she earned from school. 

See, it was crazy!!!! 

We got home around 8, and Adalyn helped me make banana pudding for DJ's staff and students. We try to bake them a treat every week, but I was out of brown sugar earlier in the week and just ran out of time! 

After we made our banana pudding, I worked out, picked up Megan at 9:30 and was done for the day. It was exhausting! 

Saturday was just as hectic. Adalyn played in her first soccer game of the season, and had to be on the field by 10:30, but we got there early because we weren't entirely sure where to meet the team she was subbing for. 

After her game, we grabbed pizza for lunch, and then we were back on the soccer fields by 1:30 for her 2:00 scrimmage game. 

She had some great moments of ball control! 

We've had an ordeal with the start of her soccer season, and ended up changing her team and league level at the last minute, so it's been a bit of a learning curve. But, she loves the sport and we're starting to get the hang of it. I'm just a Type A personality who needs to know specific times, and they've been slow to give us those, which just stresses me out. 

After her game, we ran home. Adalyn had a small migraine, so she layed down to take a nap. Megan ran across the street for our neighbor's birthday party. I showered, got dressed and then dropped Gretchen off to babysit. Ran back home to pick everyone up, and then headed to the stadium for our game. 

I couldn't wait to wear my custom hat from Longhorn Fashions. A few of the football wives got together in early August to make hats for the season. I had mine branded with the longhorn logo, but the gold "Hook 'Em" letters are removable, so I can essentially wear the hat any time this Fall. I also custom added the lace, rope detail, and feathers. 

We headed to the game- won- then made it home a little after midnight. 

The girls and I got up Sunday morning to go to church because we've missed the past few weeks and won't be able to attend next week either. After church, we ran to the grocery store, then home to unload and went to our cousin's daughter's birthday party. 

The girls got to swim, and their cousin Amy was a trooper. 

Lots of pool tricks! 

After the party, we headed to football for Sunday night family dinner, and then rushed home for showers and to get ready for Monday! 

This was just the start of our busy weekends. We have more weekends full of soccer games, gymnastic meets, and football games over the next few weeks!
