I went home this weekend to celebrate my mother’s birthday. Her birthday is actually Monday but we celebrated it on Saturday. I made her a chocolate birthday cake with cream cheese icing. Dad took her to the movies and got her a new pressure cooker. My brother and I got her some decorations that she had wanted for the house and a new baking pan that had a lid. We had pizza and cake then mom picked a movie off of Netflix for us all to watch together. I had a good time and mom said she had a good birthday so it was a good day and I am glad that I got to go home to celebrate with the rest of my family.
My brother and I went shopping on Friday for mom’s birthday gifts and various other things. We went to a shopping center and the mall. Both are in Kingsport. My brother needed to go to game stop and Michaels, and I needed to go to target and Books a Million. I also went to Maurice’s and a couple other clothing stores in search of some new blue jeans that would be the right size and length. Unfortunately my hunt for jeans was not very successful, but I did find out that all my trips to the gym are paying off. I went down a jean size, WOO personal victory! On the way home we stopped at Wal-Mart to pick up a few groceries.
When we got home, mom and dad were still at the movies so after I baked mom’s cake I vacuumed my car, and put a new air freshener in it. My car now smells like fruit loops.
I'm sure your mom loved the fact you guys were all together. That is really cool, and I hope you guys can always do that. As my siblings and I get older we try to converge on my parents house around Thanksgiving or Christmas. They, especially my mom, love to have everyone together. Its also a pretty good excuse for me and my siblings to slip out and go drinking when they are all tucked away sleeping. Glad to hear the gym is working out for you!
ReplyDeleteWow sounds like a busy but really fun weekend with your family! I'm just curious, how exactly can a car smell like fruit loops?
ReplyDeleteThe air freshener I got for my car smells like fruit loops. I used to have one that smelled like oranges but it lost all its scent so i got a new one. After the two hour drive to campus, I was craving fruit loops really bad.
DeleteSounds like a great weekend! Going down a jean size is always a great feeling, as is hanging out with family after not seeing them for awhile.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun weekend! Congrats on the new jeans size--that's awesome!
