Just hanging out...

We had a pretty fun weekend... although we didn't really do any much. Friday was a pretty nice day and the boys spent most the day riding their bikes.




We tried taking off Carson's training wheels... It didn't go so well, he gets frustrated pretty quick and he doesn't really care if they are on or off. So we thought we'd try again in the spring.
Later that night we made good old cowboy cookies (pretty much the only kind of cookie we make at our house) They are the best chocolate chip cookies ever.
When bedtime rolled around it was my turn to put the boys down. We usually head up stairs about 7:30 and get in jammies, then they brush their teeth while I read an endless amount of stories (at least that's the way it sometimes feels) After six books we say prayers, dim the lights, and say "goodnight, I love you," a million times.
Then Brady and I usually have the rest of the evening to ourselves... If you know Owen he hardly makes a peep and then drifts off to sleep on the couch by himself after a feeding and a diaper change.
When I came down the stairs after getting the boys to bed, Brady had made a fire in the fireplace and pulled out the hid-a-bed and bought me my favorite treats. I was actually surprised! Usually I can tell when he is up to something. He rented "Wait Until Dark" at the BYU library and we snuggled in for an old time scary movie. It was pretty fun.

It was our first fire so I thought I'd take a picture!

Saturday I crossed a yard sale that had one of those big bean bags... luv sac... but a different brand. Anyway I passed it by... but when I got home I thought "I'll just go see how much they want for it." So I headed back out to it... It was starting to rain now so they were taking things back inside. I pulled up and didn't see the bag, I asked if they were done and she asked me if there was something that I was interested in. I said I drove by earlier and saw a big luv sac... They still had it but moved it inside because of the rain. Any way I kept telling myself I didn't need to get it, that I was just curious about how much it was... To make a long story short they just wanted to get rid of it and I asked if they would take twenty for it... He said sure... so I bought it. I really wasn't going too... any way the boys have been having a blast with it and I think it would be fun to put in our future family room...
Here is a picture...
