Last Friday night, Melissa, Missy, Tasha (and her Mom - can't remember how to spell her name), Ally and myself went to RLJ to scrapbook - that was a lot of fun...I didn't get much done, except give Missy a hard time. She forgot her pictures - go figure - so Melissa and I set her down the path of creating a layout without pictures and let's just say she got 1 page done. She did a great job creating a trick or treat scene using the Cricut Paper Dolls cartridge (6 hours later)! I'll have to get a picture to show everyone how hard she worked.

Saturday it was another day at the football field watching Mason play - he loves football! I'm so glad he does...it looks like my future will be filled with "Football Friday Nite, Football Friday Nite." That evening we went to dinner with Missy, Brian and Reese to the Olive Garden and then had Grater's Ice Cream - yummy!

Sunday, Zach had 2 baseball games...they lost the first game...I don't think they were quite awake yet, but won the second :) Then I had to make the dreaded trip to my Mom's house to clean out the basement - Jerry will be moving soon and we have a lot of stuff to clean out. I really can't believe we got through the entire basement. Melissa ended up taking a lot of stuff home and so did Diane - I had a small laundry basket full of stuff so it wasn't too bad. We found some cards we gave our mom for Mother's Day - but Melissa said, "Just put them in your pile don't read them because then we'll cry." Good advice that was...because it would have been easy for us to get out the tissues. We ended up with about 10-15 very large trash bags. It was a long afternoon, but I'm glad the biggest chore is done. I'm still not looking forward to going through the rest of the house - I wish Jerry wasn't moving :(
