I had such a busy weekend!

On Saturday we got the flower girls measured for their dresses, and did tons of shopping! We had them help us pick out some kid toys at the dollar store for some kids' activity baskets at the wedding We got little plastic maracas, feather boas, animal masks, some coloring books and crayons, and we have some glow bracelets at home for them too!

After we dropped the kids off at home, we went to the mall for some power shopping lol! We had two hours on the parking meter and managed to get gifts for the bridesmaids, flower girls, groomsmen, a little tux for our ring bearer, and a gift for another friend's wedding in a couple of weeks!

Then we stopped at a spa for another set of gifts for our MC's (two female friends of ours, about my age)

There was one more stop for our wedding cake topper and thank-you cards for my bridal shower, and then we decided we had another hour to spare, so we test drove some vehicles We were not interested in the Buick Enclave anymore but the salesman had one at a "great price" so we gave it a try. We still love the ride but are unsure about the issues!!! We also test drove a Ford Edge which was more comfortable for me because I feel like the Enclave is gigantic! I'd be more comfortable in the Edge to drive in the city for sure. But at almost the same price, the Enclave has so much more room and luxury. So we'll keep thinking about it!

On Sunday I went through all my shower gifts finally! I wrote all of the thank-you's which took a couple of hours because I tried to make each one personal. It's tough when you're writing 30 of them one after the other! Anyways, then I washed all of the kitchen items and put all of the new towels in the wash. Scott and I spent the evening going through the kitchen, rearranging, and taking out old stuff to throw out or put in next year's garage sale, to make room for all the new stuff!!
