One VERY busy weekend

I need a vaccation from my weekend off! It was very full. I worked a 40 hr. week, and on tuesday I volunteered at the afterschool program (I work in the 3-4 yr. old room) This is my 3rd year doing this program. My daughter started in my group and now she's moved up to the older kids class. This year I have 2 nephews and 1 niece in my group.Anyways... Friday after work I took my 2 kids to their school carnival/halloween party.
Saturday morning Liam and I woke up very early to go to the heart walk. We walked 4 miles with my a group from my work. After that I did have an hour nap at home before going to the guilds Quilt show.


I worked at the show from 2-5pm. Saturday night I went to bed very early. Sunday morning... woke up took kids to sunday school and went to the early church survice (I lucked out and scored 2 dozen Hmong egg rolls--they sell them every so often, but they go fast and I usually miss out). After church went home and did a bit of house work. Then the shopping began: 1st to gottschalks for bday presents. 2nd to Best Buy for a new ink cartridge. 3rd to Lowes to pick up sisters Blind order. 4th to Petsmart for Parrot food and 2 new fishes. (Liam picked out a speckled Molly that he's named Spot. It looks like a dalmation fish. Riley picked out a Starburst Mickey looks like a fancy gold fish w/ a black tail)
Went home to pick up tools/ladder/and settle the fish into their new tank. Drove out to my Sisters new house and helped to install the rest of the blinds and the valances from the last 4 blinds. I've been doing it in stages and hubby helped with most(1 more for the future and it's done). Today hubby installed the ceiling fan while I worked on the blinds and valances.
Then we all sped to moms & dad's house for a double birthday party. Mom made the most awesome chicken/artichoke/olive thing, Homemade lasagna, salad, garlic bread, eggrolls from the hmong sale, and 3 deserts: brownies, lemon cake, pumpkin pie.
I was not on my diet today. The only thing I didnt try was the egg rolls because I have some in the freezer(I'm not kidding when I say they're good.. )
