Busy little Saturday. We hit the farmers market this morning. Right now we have contractors here putting in a patio for us, and we're staining our deck. When my H offered to keep painting while I came in to make lunch, I was more than happy to oblige. Of course, as lunch is in the oven, here I sit messing around on here. Deck staining sucks the big one. Later we're going to my SIL's to meet their new puppy and to hang out for a bit.
Today is my son's party at some Mini Golf place. (praying that the cake transports after the 10+ hours I spent making the damn thing) Then we're going to Walmart to pick up more cake stuff to make ANOTHER cake for his actual birthday tomorrow Then I'm making the cake and if I have energy, I might do movie night with H.
Working but i should get out soon. Need to clean when i get home. Will prob stop at Target on my way home. I want to buy more flowers for the yard but waiting for them to go on sale soon.
DH is at work so I'm just hanging out for the day. I've cleaned the kitchen and I need to write a paper. I should probably also pull some weeds but I really don't want to. Judgy neighbors will be the only reason I might accomplish that today.
I got up at 10, watched some TV till DH got up at 11.
Went to lunch, stopped by a frame store to get a quote on getting some art finished, went to the gym and laid out (DH worked out, I just laid out). Now we are back at home, threw some laundry in, and are relaxing until we have to leave for a wedding at 3pm.
We went whale watching and saw a bunch of humpbacks. It was a fun day and we used a living social deal and saved about $60 on it. Next set of vouchers is for the duck boats in Boston which DS saw today and really wanted to go on. It's been fun doing tourist activities nearby.

We took the girls to the zoo parade this morning and then we ran some errands.
DH and I have a legacy gala to go tonight in honor of the elementary school he graduated from (same school we plan to send our kids to). I'm so excited for a chance to dress up and have a nice dinner with drinks!
I weeded my flower beds, planted flowers, and than mulched all the flower beds. I ran out of mulch, so I need to go buy more and get groceries. My house also needs to be cleaned, but I think that I am going to put it off until tomorrow.
Hubby is playing gold so the kids and I went to the Science Center after breakfast. Had lunch out and now we are hanging out at home. Dinner with FIL and then the kids and I are making cookies.
Slept in because we finally could this week -- no plans yay!
Then I ran some errands, and DH started taking apart crap under the kitchen sink because we have a leak that needed to be addressed. Apparently it's much worse than we thought, so he then called his dad to get advice and we headed out to Home Depot to get some temporary supplies to fix the leak. Really we will need to do some major work by cutting out a pipe and replacing it, but at least now I can wash the dishes (we have no dish washer). His dad might be coming over during the week to help us with the larger job.
Then we stopped at a few garage sales around our neighborhood. Apparently it's garage sale weekend because they are freaking everywhere. We found a table we like but the sale was closed and it wouldn't fit in our car. So we'll either call the guy back and get during the week, or go back next weekend, when we can borrow a truck.
It's super hot and nice out, and I should just set up a chair and read in the yard. I don't feel like doing anything else!

We went shopping. I got a little clothes for me and DD and some socks for under my new walking cast. We went to our community garden and built some trellises for our cucumber plants. Now I am googling DIY plant markers because I clearly have too much time on my hands. DH had to go into work for a little bit.
Went to a free music festival and walked around the city today. Came home and made myself dinner. FI has been working all day so will hopefully be hone in another hour or so. Now relaxing on the couch with a cocktail and watching Source Code.
I ran a bunch of errands this morning, then spent the afternoon with my bestie while DH did yard work and then watched the Game of Thrones Season 1 DVD set I bought him because I'm awesome. We went to the bead store and made bracelets, then to lunch, then to a museum to see breathtakingly beautiful Rembrandts, then a coffee/macaron/lemon square pit stop was required, then it was off for a bit of shopping - Sur la Table, Anthropologie, and a local boutique. Now I'm home with DH for a few minutes before we go get a quick dinner.
