the weekend rewind.

first of all, congratulations to ryan and cassie who were married this weekend! ryan is matt's cousin. we didn't make it down to the wedding because we decided at last minute that we had quite a bit of things to get taken care of before ~~deer season~~ snow falls.

friday night was pretty low key. didn't do much. i cleaned like a crazy person. i love the smell of clean. house and jenn stopped over to shoot the bull. tucker slept great - until 530 in the morning in his own room! whoohoo!

saturday morning i woke up to matt standing in our bedroom in his underwear. no, he didn't just get out of bed, he had actually left to go out in the woods with his buddy early that morning. so, there he was before me with his pants/shirt/socks all rolled up in a ball in his hands. i looked at him and he said, 'i think we walked through a nest of ticks or something'. oh great. so i had to do a quick load of laundry to open up the washer to throw his flea infested clothes in. i washed that load three times in hot water. those bastards were going to die or be flushed out. so, then he took off again to go get dirt for his other project of the day - finishing our walkway to our back deck. next year we are pouring a slab, but for now we are using our walkway stones. while he was gone, tucker and i cleaned some more (yeah, i have issues), played outside, visited grandpa rick and grandma keri, and attempted organization in his room. i say attempted because i pretty much just cleaned things and put everything away in it's spot right now. i really like the suggestion i got to get this for his room. i like the look of this storage center - with the different colored bins and such. hopefully i can get those soon and finish that project. i am still packing away things in his room - clothes, toys, shoes, blankets - where does it all come from? anyways...

saturday night we ended up going out to the muni with friends. we had a good time. costume - jenn and i attempted to be hunters (i looked more like a poacher). here are some pictures from the evening. there are the oompa loompa's, the minnesota northstars (tina even had a black eye), a picture of jen and i, a shot of ash and jenn (david snuck in there too), and finally...a shot of some dirty dancing.

What_the_7

my cousin annie come over and watched tucker. her sister tia came with her and natalie was also at the house as well. i was so happy i had her come watch tucker. do you want to know the very best part? he slept from 1030 (i know, late, oh well) until 915 the next morning - in his own room! maybe they just tuckered him out, maybe he was more comfortable with all the girls in there too, whatever it was - it worked and i'm pumped about it.

sunday i woke up with a headache. hadn't had one of those in a while. ick. it pounded all day, but i managed. tucker and i hit the grocery store in the afternoon. we had a pretty boring day. i looked through catalogs trying to find christmas presents while we watched football. tucker was a card. this kid cracks me up on a continual basis. the thing that ticks me off is that right out our video camera is broke. everything works fine - but i can't change the tape! when i open it up to eject the tape, it doesn't do a thing. errrr. i'm going to have to bring it in and see if they can fix it. i'm missing GOOD STUFF people.

anyways, hope you all had a great weekend. the last one of october. wow.
