Activities and Such

It has been a busy weekend~

Friday my family and I headed off to Reno for a day of shopping and fun. We hit some great stores and came away with some awesome finds. Allen got a fun little outfit that had the shirt, pants and little jacket for $3, Elizabeth came away with 2 pair of jeans for under $5 for both, Katie cost a little more but got herself a pair of skinny jeans for $6, Joshua even found a couple of things. Grand total spent on our shopping spree $56. I got a great oil burner that is really pretty for $1 on clearance and a straightening iron for Katie for $4. We definately got some great bargains.

After shopping we headed to King Buffet for dinner... For 6 of us it was only $52. Not bad~ the buffet had all sorts of good things on it. The kids all tried octopus. I laughed so hard at Joshua~ he says, as he is chocking down the octipus. "Have you ever chewed on old rubber bands?" This was his idea of what his octipus tasted like. I passed on trying it :)

After dinner we headed over to GSR for outdoor fun~ we climbed into racecars and raced eachother~ what a blast we had! We were going to do the swing... but Katie chickened out... It would have been one of those terrifyingly FUN things to do... maybe next time!

We finished racing the second go around and then headed over to the strip~ CircusCircus was the yell of the children. So to the CircusCircus Midway we went~ Lots of fun there! The kids came away with a bag full of goodies for just a few dollars.

Finally it was time to head home~ Amazing! My car took all of a quarter of a tank of gas for the trip!We laughed and played and had a wonderful day!

My niece has left *sad face*~ she is back home, her part of the WalMart remodel being over with. I am going to miss the girl being around all the time. She is an amazing girl and I feel so blessed getting to spend so much time with eachother...

The rest of the weekend has been the same sort of flurry of activity~ Took the kids up to Eagle Lake today. We had great fun on that adventure~ I will write more soon but right now I am feeling myself fading...

It has been a long weekend and I am tired....
