Cheese Puffs on My Head... And Other Stuff That Happened

Is it really Monday morning already?

What a weekend-y weekend.

So for your Monday morning blog reading pleasure, I bring you...

Our weekend:

We had friends over for dinner on Friday night.

The boy had a basketball game on Saturday.

I took the Boy and his buddy to the bookstore after the game, and they both picked out huge stacks of new books. I may not be the world's greatest momma, but when my boy gets excited about books, then I am a happy momma. (My friend was happy about her son's reading excitement too... just not thrilled with the receipt!)

We had lunch with our book-loving friends... at a new place we've been wanting to try.

We spent the afternoon doing absolutely nothing. Ahhh...

We made up for that bliss by going back out Saturday night with 3 friends and their kids. There were 4 of us grown-ups, and there were 12 kids. Yep. 12. You read that right. Let it be known that I contributed one to the party. We had dinner, then we took the little people to an arcade. If we weren't smoking something before, we wanted to by the time we left. I love the treasures that hard earned money gets you at an arcade. And the stomach virus we probably picked up while there.

Sunday's weather made us feel human again. I think we made it out of the 50's. We went to Sunday School... which we'd been ditching while Dan/Daddy was home. Yep. You read that right too. The CHAPLAIN'S family ditched Sunday School. Don't tell my Mamaw.

After church, we came home to another afternoon of nothing. Ahhh...
Until the firetruck showed up and had to put out a fire in the woods near our house. The entire neighborhood stood outside for the excitement. Everyone except the boy, who was HIGHLY annoyed at me for making him stay inside. He has asthma, and smoke and asthma just don't mix. Try telling that to a 10 year-old whose friends are all outside chatting it up with the fireman.

Sunday night was AWANAS (Bible Club for kids). During game time, my sweet friend (the game leader) asked for adult volunteers. Then she smiled and handed me a shower cap. The 4 "adults" had to wear the shower cap and have our heads COVERED in shaving cream. Then, our team of kids lined up and threw cheese puffs at our capped and creamed heads. 'Cause cheese puffs stick to shaving cream, in case you were wondering. There is photographic evidence, but it's on my phone... and I am trying to get it on the computer.
Have you ever smelled the combined smell of cheese puffs and shaving cream? With a hint of sweaty kid in the background? Good times.

That's it. That's all I've got. Besides some bright orange food dye powder in my ears.
