busy busy bees

today is one of those days where i feel like i need a vacation from our vacation.

our long weekend was PACKED with stuff.

friday:

Matt didn't go into work he just finished some things from home and i had a half day so we were able to run errands and get a couple things done.

including finally getting my associates degree paperwork all filled out and submitted to MCC.

that's right, it's been 3 years since i've taken a class at MCC but i finally submitted all the paperwork and i now have an associates degree for realz.

i am awesome!

then we went out to joe's crab shack for dinner because Matt's sister gave us a gift card for our bdays and we haven't had a chance to use it yet.

and boy oh boy am i a fan of the shack now!

i can't believe i've never been there before!

actually i can because it's a little on the pricey side for us but it is SO good!

we went all out and got calamari and a steampot and a shrimp platter and just devoured everything.

NOM NOM NOM!

and the best part?

the bibs!

we had so much fun pretending to be experts with crab legs!

saturday:

my little nephew J.J. isn't so little anymore. he got baptized and i can't even believe it!

when did he get so old??

he got baptized in 29 Palms, CA so we made the long 4 1/2 hour drive just to be there on his special day.

he was so cute and SO excited!

here he is showing off his new CTR ring.

we're so proud of him!

we got to eat yummy food and play around with the other nephews for a bit before making the drive back that same day.

it was a long but awesome day!

sunday:

while Matt caught up on sleep i had to wake up and finish some work before church then it's a quick rush home to change before dinner at the in-law's.

sundays always seem so much shorter than i want them to be.

monday:

Josue and Elba invited us to Wet N Wild because Josue got free tickets from work and we are all about free theme park tickets.

we rode on every single slide and had a blast!

and i don't know how it's possible but i always ended up with the worst position on the tubes.

ya know the one that goes backwards or gets thrown up on the sides and drenched with water?

that was always the seat i was in!

and by the time we got home from Wet N Wild-ing we were too tired to do anything else but lay around and go to bed early.

so it was a crazy crazy busy weekend but full of amazingly fun things!

i wish i could say we'll relax this weekend to make up for it but every weekend in the foreseeable future seems to be just as packed.

we need to stop being so popular!
