Weekend Woohoo

The weekend was a really nice relaxing one

Saturday
Took Corbin to ANOTHER birthday party and then I took Quinn out with me to do some chores and get his haircut. What a spunky little dude with his hair all spikey he he he. We went to the big playground but then he didn't want to play so we went shopping.

When we got home it was just relaxing and they boys played outside in the backyard and we just read our magazines and just chilled it was fantastic.

Sunday
We all made a impossible quiche this morning to take on a picnic. Went and took back the library books and then went to the Hamilton gardens and found a really nice picnic table (made of marble) up high looking over a beautiful water garden and ate our quiche and the kids were having so much fun.

The afternoon was spent cleaning out our study so that we can have a spare bedroom because since I have had the laptop I am in the lounge on a table instead of needing a study so we now have a day bed and chair in there and it will be a good place to chill in the summer as it will be a nice cool room.

We put on the roast and decided that since mum is home we would go out for a walk with the kids (they took their bikes) We went for a 40 minute walk and when we were on the way back a car stopped just up in front of us... it scared me a little and hubby said "must be someone wanting to know instructions) well we got to the window and I heard a voice say "OMG GIRL I had to go around the round about twice to come back and tell you how FANTASTIC you are looking and I didn't recognise that it was you" My head must have swelled up so much after that. I was on such a high. The lady used to go to Weight Watchers when I first started and she was saying she hadn't been back because it has clashed with her work etc. So I have been on a high since...

To be honest I am scared about the weigh in on Tuesday. I have kept within points this week but I don't know if my choices were right. So we shall see. It would be fantastic to lose 30 kilos within the year of starting this.. So I am going to work my butt off to get there. 10 kilos to get off before the end of January. Even though my year ends on the 11th January 2006 I think by the end of January I can do this if I reallllllllly stick to it.

He he going to leave it at that.

Wasn't yesterday gorgeous. We got out with the kids too. Also involved them in a bit of backyard exercise. lol. They're turning into quite the little gardeners.

You deserve the compliments. Isn't it great the lift you get. Pushes you that little bit further.

Have a great week. Good luck for weigh in.

What a great weekend. When the weather is good it is so easy to get that extra incidental exercise in. Well done to you for getting as much in as you possibly could. And whoooo hoooo for the compliment. LOL that she drove around the block. How cool is that.

Hope weigh in is kind to you, but don't worry because it will all come off in the end :)
