Another busy weekend...

Hey everyone. Here are some more photos....


This is Abby before Sunday School today. I thought she looked so cute. I just got this dress for her when I was shopping on my birthday. She loves dresses. Seth took her to Sunday School for me since I was out a bit late last night for my friend Kelly's bachelorette party. He even shaved so he looked presentable, which never happens on a weekend!

The bachelorette party was fun. We had a Hummer limo which was fun. We felt like rock stars. We went to 15 (former Cardinal Jim Edmonds' restaurant/bar) first. Then to Lure on Washington Ave., which was techo music, not really my cup of tea. But it was a good time overall. Here are some pics from that.

This is Kelly's friend, Mary. You can see how the inside of the Hummer was totally pimped out. Felt like P. Diddy.

Mary, me and Lisa.


This is the gang with some of St. Louis' finest. I can't believe they actually posed with us. (This was not my idea.) From left, Lisa, Jenny, Kelly, Carolyn, Mary, Jen, Marissa and me.


This is us at 15. Me, Jenny, Kelly, Carolyn, Jen and Marissa. In front, Mary and Lisa.


Last Monday, Abby's Girl Scouts troop had a field trip at the fire station. Adam got to go, too, which he was very happy about. He is often sad because Abby and I always have somewhere to go and he doesn't always get to go. Plus, he got to go inside a fire truck so that was pretty cool in is eyes.

Here are the girls listening to the fire fighter. That's Abby in the back in the middle of the photo.



Adam inside the truck.



Adam.


Adam. He doesn' look very happy, but he really did have a good time. He's not the best at smiling on command.


Abby's troop: Sarah, Genevieve, Hannah, Ella, Cayley, Emma, Ashley and Abby.

Abby had another softball game Friday night and this was the first game Seth was able to go to. Having Seth there made a big difference in Abby's ability to pay attention. She got the ball in the field two or three times and hit twice, so she did really well.


Abby on second.


Saturday morning, Abby had to help with the Girl Scouts' April Showers program. Last weekend her troop put out donation bags to collect toiletries and personal care items for charity and this weekend, we had to help pick up and sort the donations.


Here are the girls with the donations they collected in the subdivision we were assigned to. This is Maya, Abby, Ashley, Genevieve and Cayley.
This week doesn't look too bad. Abby has softball practice Monday and a game Thursday. She has cheerleading Thursday, too, but we'll have to skip that. We close on the refinance we did on our house on Tuesday. Saving $170/month on our mortgage payment. Woo hoo! Steve and Kelly's wedding is Saturday. Funny that is considered an easy week. Have a great week!

Cute shirt for the Bachelorette Party! Between that and your dress for Erin's wedding, I'd say you are really branching out beyond black and brown! :)
Funny story - I came home from work on Friday and Nathan proudly tells me he put can goods in the bag that the Girl Scouts left. I told him I think it's supposed to be toiletries - not canned goods. However, we forgot to go change it out so we donated canned goods! I wonder how many other people didn't read the instructions on the bag like my hubby! :)
