Father's Day Weekend

So upon arriving Friday we knew there would be lots to do when we got home over the weekend but it was oh so sweet to get home. 
Saturday we were all able to sleep in a little. Colby had a b-day party that day for a friend. Austin got up and mowed the yard first thing. He ended up finishing up early and was able to go with us that morning. We first went by Target to get a present for Makyrin then we headed to Algiers to drop Colby off. He was soo excited. It was his first "drop off" party! He was ready to jump out the door with the car still moving. Austin, Lindsay, and I then went to the grocery. We had a huge trip to make with not going for 2 weeks. We got it all finished though! We made sandwhiches and just had a low key afternoon. It was nice just spending time with Lindsay. It was amazing how quiet the house was with just 1 kid. We missed Colby but sometime it is nice to separate them. He didn't get home until almost 5. By the time he got home it was about dinner time. We had jambalaya and salads that night. We took a walk and enjoyed our evening together. 
Sunday was Father's Day. I was happy Austin was actually off this year b/c in past years he has had to work. We went to church ofcourse. Poor thing had to stay and help me teach b/c I would have been alone and we had 16 kids!! I couldn't believe how many children showed up with their dads. A sweet sight but oh so many kids. We have 4 children also who honestly need 1 on 1 attention and should probably have their own class. It was tiring. After we went into church just for a little bit. It was nice to get to see people who we wouldn't normally see when we leave right after 1st service. We sat through some of the songs and the Father's Day video then left. With the trip and with hosting Father's Day there was just so much to do. 
We got home and ate leftovers for lunch. We then spent the afternoon relaxing and preparing for dinner. We had offered to host Father's Day. Now with this house its easier to host things of that nature. It was fun having everyone over here. We had hamburgers, hotdogs, potato salad, and blueberry cobbler. We just had a fun time visiting and hanging out. I think it was a great weekend back at home! Now I am looking forward to enjoying summer with my kiddos!
