It has been a long and crazy weekend for the Mousekatot family, that is why you haven’t seen much here.
Having a nice long weekend, with both Friday and Monday off from work, lead to a four day weekend full of fun and also some unfortunate stuff too.
Friday
On Friday we were able to spend a wonderful evening with family at our annual Cousin Reunion.
We were able to visit with cousins from all over the country and our kiddos were able to spend time together, too.
There was a lot of laughing, playing and eating of Slovak foods.
Saturday
Saturdays are always super important to the three of us so we always try and do something fun and exciting. We refer to it as “Adventure Saturday.”
This past Saturday we decided to check out this huge book sale that a chain of used bookstores was having.
It was awesome! There were audio books, paperbacks, records, DVDs, CDs and anything you could think of.
The best part was nothing was over $2.
There were a lot of different books and we were able to get a bunch of books for our Mousekatot, a few DVDs including seasons one and three (couldn’t find season two) of “Arrested Development” and some other books for us.
We also went to Gander Mountain to check out and see what they had for sale. We lucked out because we found Columbia sandals for $21 that were originally $61! We are now ready to tackle Walt Disney World this year with super comfortable shoes. Once we get back I will do a review and let you know how thy worked out.
Since both Kev and I are vegetarians (I try to eat vegan when I can) one of our favorite places to eat is called Mad Mex.
Mad Mex is part of a local restaurant chain that has a lot of Tex-Mex food options for both omnivores and veggies. All of their options can be made vegetarian with either all veggies or swap in tofu. They also offer vegan cheese and sour cream to make the meal completely vegan.
I concluded our wonderful Saturday by starting to read one of the books that I picked up at the book sale. I am only a few chapters in and it seems like it is going to be a pretty good book.
Sunday
Sunday was a nice lazy day that included swimming at our in-laws, eating pizza and getting ready to take on the new week.
Monday
This is the day our hot water heater rusted and the bottom fell out and water was all over. We tried to get a hot water heater from a big box store and they miscommunicated and we wouldn’t be able to get it installed that day. Luckily, we found someone that could that day and it ended up working out. I am so thankful for having hot water.
So that was pretty much how the weekend shook out. Despite the hot water heater and also the fact that it looks like my iPhone is losing battery power like crazy, I had a great weekend.
Do you did anything exciting this weekend? Leave your comments below.
