Oh, Wonderful Friday

Today was a wonderful day. We picked up my handsome husband from the airport. We went to lunch, had some ice cream and came home and relaxed. The girls didn't go down for a nap and had the giggles and wiggles so they watched "Enchanted" (which I thought, was a really good, clean movie) while I read my book, "The Other Boleyn Girl". I want to go see the movie but only after I finish the book. Needless to say our day was very nice and relaxing.

Arthur and I were invited to my friend and co-worker, Jennifer's birthday party at Buca Di Beppa in Austin. I didn't think we would make it since Arthur had just gotten home and was still taking his nap. But he ended up getting up around 6:00 and we got ready to go. I'm happy we went. Jennifer is such a nice person. She is also my work-out buddy. We've both started doing a condensed form of Krav Maga twice a week. I am truly blessed to get to know Jennifer and her family and look forward to becoming even better friends. The food & fellowship was great. The restaurant was really nice and I loved the pictures and decorations.

My mom-in-law came over to the house to watch our kiddos while we went out. When we got back I had a nice little surprise waiting for me. I left a load of laundry on the chair in the living room and when we got back home our lovely, beautiful 3 year old daughter, Ava had folded the clothes for me. My mom-in law said that she told Ava "why don't you fold the clothes for mommy?" and she did! She also said that she was going to her purse to give Ava a treat for folding clothes and Ashlynn (age 2) jumped up and folded the last 2 remaining articles of clothing :o)

Here are a couple of pictures of a job well done.
