Friday evening Ellen and I hit up PF Changs and just had some relaxation time. Food was amazing and the company was even better. We then met up with Jen and Becky and went to see "The Lady in Black". The movie was good and it would have been scary at some points if it weren't for the 80/20 ration of teenagers to adults. Those girls screamed at everything. High pitch, screams. It was beyond annoying. The door could move and they would scream. Ridiculous.
Saturday I woke up to snow. Now, unlike a lot of my friends, I love snow. We headed out early and had some errands to run and I just loved sliding through intersections, and losing control on turns. I am being totally serious too. I love it. Down fall, was that we witnessed almost 2 huge accidents due to people's stupidity. I just love how the snow sticks to trees, bushes, houses, cars, buildings, everything. It's do numbing after a large snow fall. It's quiet and relaxing. It makes me just want to read a book with a hot tea. Yeah, in my house that doesn't happen. All Jax wanted to do on Saturday was dance, so we did a lot of that. That boy. I tell you what. Jake and I worked on Valentines for family members and decorations for his party on Friday. He is completely in charge of this whole processes and is even picking out a lot of the menu. He will even go "wait mom, let me get my list". Great, I passed on the "list" gene. Usually his lists consist of his name, mom, dad, Jax, nana, papa, Zoey, dog, cat. They aren't relevant but still.
Sunday we headed to Hope, then ran home to get Jax down for a nap before heading up to Ankeny. This year was a complete blast for the super bow. The team we wanted to win did. We had great company, great food, a fun bet going that kept us really engaged in the game. I will say the half time show was a slight let down. It's Madonna, seriously, don't sell out. But the evening was a lot of fun and I can't wait till next year!
I am home with the boys today and it's been so much fun. Jax is currently sleeping (a time to always cherish.) and Jake wanted to watch "Tangled" because it's a girl movie and I am a girl so I should like it. I love being able to stay home with them when I can. We just have a ridiculously good time. Jake is sitting on the couch with a dog on each side, both their heads are in his lap and the cat is sitting right above his head.
Bonus this week is a four day work week for me. Great start to a hopefully fantastic weekend. I'm super pumped for Friday-Sunday. I just hope these days go by super fast. I am sure they won't because I have so much going on and so much to do! Work will go slow, evenings will fly by! But that is pretty much how every day is!
