Best Weekend-EVER!!!!

I cant imagine a better weekend!!! There was candy and cookies, and sugar, and food, and jammies, and movies, and snow!!! Here's a break down:
Friday: Watched an early movie, then we shoveled the FOUR inches of snow we got outta of the driveway-we are running out of places to put it!!! Then the boy had a friend over and we went sledding. Then we cleaned up and went out to dinner.

Saturday: Spent the morning in our jammies and watched a movie then we all bundled up and went geo-caching for THREE HOURS!! We found nothing! But it was the most intense workout ive ever had!!! Then we came home had lunch and warmed up. Then we headed out to a movie. Saw Yogi Bear and it was cute, better then i expected. We came home had dinner and hung out in our jammies!

Sunday: Made french toast and watched a movie. Then cleaned up and got dressed spent the after noon out boot shopping came home went to the meeting, had dinner and slept like a baby.
