MINDFUL MONDAY

~Well what can I say,  at least today feels like Monday to me. Last week was very busy...but definitely fun filled.  I woke up yesterday feeling like I'd been hit by a train...and my home looked like it had been hit too...by several trains.  So I spent the yesterday cleaning (no working, no emails, no social plans)...and trying to recover our foundation again....therefore today is my Monday to me.  Let's all just play along okay? ;)

 

Highlights of last week included:
 ~Wrapped up Trevor's visit with some fun Starr Family Time on Monday night...grilling out, the babies played in the sprinkler, loved spending time with my Brother in laws. Later last week...Shannon (Justin's oldest brother) got engaged...so happy and excited for him!!
~Dyed Easter Eggs with our Bunnies....Emma enjoyed smashing them, Hannah loved dropping them into the water cups.
~Lunch with some treasured girlfriends
~Breathtakingly Beautiful J.Starr Stylized Wedding!  See their sparkling Grand Exit!
~Sunday Funday Easter

New fab finds:

~Eos Shaving Cream....so silky smooth soft

 

Yes this actually happened:
~I got a parking ticket for parking in a handicap spot. No, I'm not a jerk who does this type of thing...I was in a hurry Friday...running all over the valley...and parked in a parking lot I've parked in hundreds of times...I knew that the sign said I had a two hour parking limit {without a pass} all the spots in these lot say this....what I didn't see was the handicap symbol also on it. Grrr.... deservingly so, I got a ticket, an expensive one! Slow down Jennifer.

~ Olive {one of our wiener dogs} some way, some how busted in to the Easter Basket stash...an ate an entire chocolate bunny! Yes, she lived...yes she's fine...she just caused us extra unneeded stress on a very busy day. that dog, I swear.
 

Feeling Appreciative:

~For a Physical Therapist Husband....who hooked me up to heat and stem Friday night to relieve my "I carry twins around all day" aching back.  good stuff.
 

Confessions:
~I ate too many Cadbury Mini Eggs last week....those things are heavenly!

 

Baby Moments I Want to Remember:
  ~Hannah is officially walking....here's a video link here and here. I can't believe it....it's definitely a bitter sweet moment for a parent.  Emma's not far behind...she'll be catching up with sis if not this week, next week for sure.
~Easter was a blast...it was the first time we ever saw get excited about "opening" gifts ~their Easter Baskets, so cute.
