Careful what you ask for!

Well this weekend has been so super busy...so surprised! Friday night we went to Searcy to pick up my new piece of furniture for the entry way! And I am totally in love with it by the way. Here is a picture of my new lovely




















Pretty perfect for the area I was wanting! I had a girl custom paint it for me just how I wanted it. It is actually an old 70s style dresser and here is the before photo



















I think she did a great job! I can't wait to start staging it up! So after we picked that up we grabbed a late dinner from Olive Garden. And because the Shopaholic is also a thrifty spender, we had a coupon! WOOO! Saturday we had our usual Razorback watch party with the gang and cooked lots of snack and appetizers. I wasn't feeling well at all so I didn't enjoy the food and fellowship as much as normal but I tried to push through and be a good hostess. Even though I barely ate anything it was still nice to have the gang together to watch the Hogs claim another W! We definitely didn't look as good as we should against Ol' Miss but a win is a win right?! Im sure Bobby P would disagree! Next week Vanderbilt and another early game! These early games are about to kill me, there is never enough time to get everything prepared and going at 11am. After the game, everyone left and I had two showers to attend at the very same time 4 pm. Feeling terribly, I still wanted to at least go and drop off the gifts to their respective guests of honor. So after all that, I was homeward bound and in bed!

Today we were supposed to go to the pumpkin patch and take pictures of the kiddos but the weather was looking awfully crappy! Bummer! So I switched some spring/summer clothes to the other closet and brought out a few more fall/winter things, did laundry, picked up on the extra bedroom, and finally got ready.

I went over to see the munchkins (my nephews) and hug on them and visit with my sister. Little A had just woken up from a nap and he was being so funny! I love his little bozo the clown hair but sister says it's about to have it's first introduction to Mr.Scissors! : ( Can't wait to see what his first haircut looks like and his curly lock to save will definitely be precious! So, Brady was telling his mama he wanted to go somewhere fun today, even though he had just been to Nettie's the night before for dinner and visiting. I told him he could come with me and Uncle Jason to run our errands in Little Rock to get some stuff for our halloween costumes and maybe we could get something to eat! He was ALLL on board. I reminded him that sometimes errands aren't fun and we would be "shopping" so if he wasn't interested, speak now! Nope, I wanna go Aunt Nay! Ok dude! Let's hit the road! We told him if he was really good through shopping maybe we could do something fun or get him a small present. So we went to a store looking for some halloween stuff and he found a small inexpensive toy he wanted. Ok, that's fine. Then he says, as he walks to the checkout, "and since I've been good maybe we can go somewhere fun?"...Whoa whoa whoa hold the phone, back up! "Ok, Brady, you can get a toy and we can go eat or no toy and go somewhere fun. Not both!" He had no problem laying down the toy he spent 20 minutes looking for as he said, "Let's go somewhere fun, I can get that for my birthday!" Oh geez...So as Jason and I racked our brain for fun things to do for a 4 year old..on a Sunday...in Little Rock...at 5:30 pm....we were lost! We finally decided to go to Cheeburger Cheeburger because, wait for it....I had a coupon!!! LOL and after that we would run over to Chuck E Cheese and play a few games and head home.....LIKE I SAID.......Be careful what you ask for! LOL seriously Chuck E wasnt all that bad and he had a blast! But man that place can suck a kid in for hours. Out the window goes our 30 min time limit! Here are some pics from our night

Loves his Aunt Nay

Making a happy plate : )



WINNING!!




Cashing in our moneys!
Brady took his winnings of 167 tickets and got some very small little boy toys he hand selected! He had a blast and we did too! It was nice to get out and do something different. Obviously my special boy has me wrapped around his finger when he says Aunt Nay, I wanna go with you! And I comply with Chuck E Cheese! So that was Sunday Funday! Still feeling a little off but hopefully tomorrow will be better! Hope everyone else had a nice weekend!
Happy Monday Eve
