The weekend in finally here

Yes, it's Friday!! For some reason it has seemed like a really long week!!Tonight they are having a Parent Appreciation dinner at D's school. I'm not sure if it's just dinner or if there is a presentation of some type...anyway we are planning on going.
We are going to search the house this weekend for more eBay stuff. Mike has been selling some stuff on there and doing pretty well. I think we have some stuff in the attic that might get us a few bucks.....
I am really considering the gymnastics thing again for the boys. I think I might take them in the morning to sign up. There is a class that is for 3-5 yr olds on Sat.'s and they can be in the same class, i.e. only one trip for mommy!!! :) Plus with the cold weather here, it will help them be able to release some weekend energy! We also are going to start trying to get to the Y once a week to swim. We only have two months until our cruise and I'd love for the boys to be more adjusted to the water so we can do some swimming on the ship or even at the beach! Two months...yikes!! I better get my booty back to the gym on the treadmill!! I did finally get my Garmin GPS watch that I ordered for a super price that was on back order for two weeks. My thoughts are to use it to help me trian for a 1/2 marathon. I had originally planned to already be in training but that hasn't happened.... maybe I can try it out on Sunday..it is supposed to be in the 60's or so they say!
Only two weeks till we have company again. One of my friends from STL and her husband are coming to visit. This will be their 3rd visit. They come every year the weekend of President's day. I am very excited....she is also expecting!! I can't wait to see her tiny baby pooch!! We were talking the other day and realized that they will be here Valentine's. I told her that maybe we can have a special Valentine's dinner at my house. I was thinking maybe me and her could cook the meal and the guys would be in charge of dessert. I think I will make rules to it though! No store bought dessert, it must be homemade....that will be interesting!!
We rented the Wii game Mario Cart this week to let D try it. He absolutely loves it!! It is very kid friendly and he has played it almost every night! We might try to get out this weekend to purchase it...we have a coupon for Best Buy, so let's hope they have it!! We also rented Journey to the Center of the Earth and Tyler Perry's The Family that Preys....I really enjoyed both movies alot! I didn't know if I would like Brendan Fraser's movie....he is usually in some goofy movies, but I did really enjoy it. I plan to put it on my iPod and let the boys watch it...I think they might really enjoy it if they can just keep interested long enough to get to the good stuff. Of course Tyler Perry's movies are all good. I don't know if I have watched one yet that I didnt' like. We also caught Daddy's Little Girls the other night on TV and that was a good movie too. It was sad in parts...but had a good message. I can't believe I have watched so many movies lately...I think this is more than I have watched in months!!! yeah for me!!
Well I hope everyone enjoys their Friday and the weekend even more!! Toodles.
