AAhhhhh this weekend... Glad that it happened and glad that it's over! I had inventory at work this Sunday but I'm getting too far ahead of myself.. Saturday was an absolute nightmare! I woke up super early Saturday to make some of my favorite double layer pumpkin cheesecake pie! Jaiden was supposed to have a football game Saturday morning at 10am which until about 8:45 was still on even though it had been downpouring since Friday morning/afternoon. So we finally got the cancellation text which I had secretly hoped for.. It's no fun sitting outside in the rain with a 4 month old. It was Johns Saturday to work, so that would have been all me and I was not having that! Instead we went to hang out with my mom and go to attempt to go to IHOP before I had to go to work.
I love this picture of the 3 of them. I think it's funny that Jaiden looks so much younger in this picture. He's got such a baby face!
We eventually made it to IHOP only to find a line out the door and decided on another yummy NASTY choice.. Anita's. Bad service, even worse food....Some of their locations are on point others, not so much!
I managed to plan my day out accordingly, get all my errands done and still make it to work on time. Well then things change and I misread emails and texts from Jaidens coach and think that the cancelled game has only been postponed until later that afternoon. Well to my surprise after I drop John Henry off at my dads 15 minutes away from Jaidens game, get Jaiden to the ball field by 1:30... NO. ONE. AROUND. NO FOOTBALL. NO REFS. NO KIDS. NADA.
It is now 1:35pm(& keep in mind I have to be at work 30 minutes away at 2pm) and now I have to drive Jaiden to my dads, 15 minutes in the opposite direction. Plus traffic going towards my job sucks, so needless to say I was 30 minutes late to work. Which threw my whole day off and sent me into a tailspin. But I made plenty of pie which helped me make it through my work shift.
My brother was home from college for the weekend and Jaiden absolutely loves to hang out and play football with Uncle Josh and Aunt Julia.. They always have so much fun! So since my brother doesn't come home that often Jaiden spent the night at my dad's house. My sisters birthday is this Wednesday so they went to dinner to celebrate since Josh was home.
We hung out there for a while, Jaiden and my dad threw the football around outside while I stayed inside and visited with my sister and stepmom.
Sunday afternoon was the rescheduled football game... Or at least it better have been or I would have been pissed. Again, Jaiden has been dying for Josh to watch him play football! My brother played high school football and his team won states 2 years in a row. There are video montages of both seasons and Jaiden has watched them about a million times. Uncle Josh is Jaidens football idol. So he was able to come and see a game and Jaiden was elated. And a bit of a show off. Always show-boating. ALWAYS.
After the game I went to work and endured 9 grueling hours of inventory. Reason # 1,456,299 why I hate retail! I did luck out and get Columbus Day off which was cool. I got caught up on my shows and even started on my 8 mile long craft list.. Maybe I'll have some new things to show next time!
