Man! It's been a good weekend!

It's really shaped up to be a good weekend!

We started this weekend out this Friday with our turn to host playdate on our Kid Swap Co-op we have going with Brook's BFF. I didn't want to be cooped up inside with the girls given the weather was so nice so we made it a GNO! First we made our way to Chick Fil-a for dinner then to Gigi's Cupcakes for dessert!! I was so worn out after just those 2 things that I went straight to bed after Brook's company left...lol!

Brooklyn's never been to the zoo before, so we decided before we took her to a big zoo we would test the waters at the Little Rock Zoo yesterday which neither one of us had been to since we were kiddos. We even took Grandpa along with us. The result---she was a little scared at first, but then she was really into the animals. However just around that time, my allergies started flaring up and I remembered I hadn't taken my allergy med...ugghh!! Anyhoo, still got some good shots though...

Last but certainly not least, I decided to treat myself to a couple of new toys. After months of giving McDonald's $1.11 a day, I finally decided to get myself a good coffee maker and grinder to just make myself a just right amount of freshly ground coffee at the start of my day. It only took as much time as it would for me to wait in the drive-thru line and it came out soooo good! New toys---$80. Good coffee for a fraction of what I would pay by the cup for the long run---PRICELESS :-)





Oh...and I almost forgot that the hubby and I got our cook on on Sunday. He smoked a tasty brisket and I threw together some homemade mac and cheese. Mmm mmm good!!
