O what a weekend!



Well the weekend was fun. Friday night I worked while Eric watched Tatum. They went on a fun walk around the neighborhood. On Saturday Eric did some lawn work. Tatum and I went to do some errands. When we came home we decided it was time to pull out the sprinkler that we had bought her. This sprinkler is part of her Birthday present from Eric and I, but we decided it needed to be brought out a little early.

She had such a good time running around and splashing in the water. I thought is was funny how she tried to eat the water by sticking out her tongue. As you can see for your self she was having a great time.

Saturday night Eric and I went down to the Taste of Omaha. It was fun to hang out in the Old Market. This is something that we did often before we had Tatum. We ran into our friends Ian and Suzanne with their daughter Sky...and it made us wish we had Tatum with us. It was fun to go to the event with out a little one, but you do end up missing them from time to time. We ended the night by getting a light shower of rain on us. I found it to be a romantic ending to the night.

Saturday night we went to bed pretty late and had no idea about the weather that was heading our way. We woke up to my Mom calling us around 2am or so? The tornado sirens were going off and I really did not hear them. It was a little scary and confusing at first. We got Tatum and headed to the basement. We started to empty out the storage closet under the stairs. Eric watched on the TV for updates. I then gathered up the pets. We are very thankful to say that we had no damage to our house or our property.

The storage room is now open for business, as I have now cleaned and gotten rid of some stuff that was keeping it full. It was not fun to not be able to just get in there when we needed to. But we are now ready should we need to get in there in a hurry.

Today we went to a Birthday Party for Mina and Marley and it was a bunch of fun. Tatum really liked hitting the Pinata and playing pin the nose on the clown. My friend Beth really knows how to keep the kids happy with fun games, goody bags and lots of sweets. Tatum did not take her nap today....thanks Beth if you are reading this :)
