Well, even though the weather was disgustingly yucky all weekend, it was a nice one. Saturday morning was our quad friends’ birthday party (you know, the girls who were born 12 hours after the boys?) at a kids’ gym place. It was a great party, the boys could run and play on everything. Thank goodness my friend was able to get that place for the party – up until the night before, the party was scheduled to be outside at a park!

In spite of the fact that my weird children insisted on carrying around a Thomas DVD case (Miles) and a hairbrush (Oliver) the whole time, we had a great time.

Look how cute these girls are!

After the party, I brought the boys to Granny and Grandpa’s house to hang out. And I went Christmas shopping. Got a lot done, whew. First I went to the mall, and then I went to this other outdoor shopping center. Where it poured so hard that I had to roll up my jeans and take off my shoes to wade to my car. Yeah. Nice. All of the streets around it were badly flooded so I was stuck. Finally, I decided enough was enough, and I braved the waters. Thank god I have a minivan, that’s all I’m saying. It was bad.

On Sunday, we were supposed to go to a family party in Baton Rouge, but sadly, it was cancelled. So I did a little decorating and picture hanging and TV watching and Christmas gift making. Look, I finally hung these pictures after a mere ten months!
