Weekend in Review: What you missed!

On Friday, Mackaylan and I met up with Reisha and the kiddos for some fun in the sun. Mackaylan had a fun time showing Owen all of her new water tricks, and she helped Reisha with Lainey throughout the afternoon as well. I am just amazed at how comfortable she is in the water this year as opposed to last summer. Never in a million years would I have thought that she would be swimming after only a few short weeks into summer break. Well, after our afternoon at the pool, we enjoyed Family Date Night. We ate dinner at Ruby Tuesday's and then headed to the theater to see Shrek 3. I was a little disappointed with the movie, but Mickey and Mackaylan loved it. As with any movie, there are certain lines that stick with you, and a few of those have been tossed around our household frequently over the past few days!

On Saturday, Mackaylan and I joined my sister, mom, Nana, and my sister's mother-in-law on a shopping excursion to Asheville, NC. We hit up a wonderful consignment shop called Lulu's and then went over the the Biltmore Mall for the Dillard's Clearance Outlet. Let me just say: WONDERFUL!! Mackaylan is such a little shopper. We left home at 9:30 and didn't return until 5:00PM and she didn't complain once! LOVE IT! I have a feeling Mickey's wallet is going to be in trouble when she gets a little older. :)

Mickey's last 4-wheeler race before summer break was on Sunday. It was in Woodruff, which is only about 40 minutes away so we had lots of friends and family with us. This was the first race with my new camera and I was in picture paradise! I'm not sure paradise would be the word that others would use to describe the afternoon because it was HOT (and dusty!) After the race, we packed up and headed back to Grams' and Pop-O's to swim. It was the perfect way to cool off and end our weekend.

So, that's what we've been up to. What about you?
