Weekend Madness

Our weekend was a complete whirlwind!  We left Missouri on Thursday, and the rain followed us all the way to Illinois.  We fortunately made it safe to my parents house, and were able to just relax.  Kyle went to karate with my dad, and my mom and I ran some errands.  Late Thursday night, I went to Delavan to help out Ian and Sonia (they were getting married Saturday) at Deb's house.  We steamed/ ironed the wedding dress and made the wedding program.  Friday was crazy, well it started out not so crazy but then as the day went on it became crazier by the minute.  We went to Peoria to shop a little and get our nails done.  Well, I had some returns, and we were able to get everything done.  The nail salon was so busy because of Proms and mother's day.  It was so crazy, unfortunately, the manicures were not so great.  The people rushed through our manicures, and were very worried about me not paying for them.  Well I paid for them and we were off.  THEN we took Sophie to Claire's were she got her ears pierced!  She was very excited and they look so cute!  Friday night we decorated the church and had rehearsal and dinner.  It was a late night, and Saturday morning came super fast.  Saturday, I got my hair done with the girls, and it was super fun!  Then rushed home, ironed a lot of clothes and did Sophie's hair.  When we got to the church, we were rushing to get things done.  Finally, it was time for the wedding to start!  Everything went great, Sonia was beautiful, and the wedding was wonderful!  Sunday was mother's day.  I am so thankful, I was able to spend it with my Mom!  We went to First Wok for lunch, and then we went to a state park near by.  At the park we enjoyed the beautiful day and played bags (bag-o or corn hole, whatever you might call it), and we also were able to go kayaking there.  It was a lot of fun!  We had family movie night, and watched Kung Fu Panda, Kyle had never seen it.  We had a fun weekend and were able to stay through Sunday.  Well not such a fun blog to read, but that was our weekend.  Cheers!
