Memorial Day Weekend

we had a great memorial day weekend.  the kids and i did a little closet organizing on saturday morning (our subdivision garage sale is fast approaching) before heading over the luke & michelle’s to hang out.  derek had left early that morning to help luke roast the hog for goetz memorial day party…it’s become their yearly tradition of drinking beer, cooking, seasoning, and eating their way to belly aches.  

michelle and i and all our babies played and did our own thing inside since it was raining all day. we eventually forced ourselves to go to walmart, and it was quite an adventure (as usual when it comes to an outing for michelle and i). let’s just say we were giggling and having a great time while everyone else at walmart seemed to hate us.  we had a cart full of kids and another full of food and somehow determined that self checkout was the way to go.  as you can imagine, it didn’t go so well…neither of us are skilled enough to get items to beep thru the scanner!  it was pretty funny…we had a line of people behind us cursing our name that’s for sure.  what i keep wondering is WHY anyone would get in line behind us?  we had huge trash bins that we were trying to lift upside down and scan…while kids are screaming and fighting and trying to scan their own items.  it was great!
