Happy Mother's Day to everyone! I took the weekend off from most of my typical activities to spend extra time with my family. On Mother's Day I didn't have to cook or clean up all day and even got to take a nap!!
There were still some opportunities to save this week,
Ryan cut his and Austin's hair.
I made baby food squash.
On Saturday, I had to run an errand across town, so I took the family along. On the way back, we hit the Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay and got two free entries for teacher appreciation, so we just had to pay the $10 local child admission for Austin.
I cooked dinner every night this week. Ryan grilled one night and we ate outside on the patio. My father in law is back in town, so we are back to Sunday dinners at their house.
We made handmade Mother's Day cards.
Talked to my sister in Norway for free on Skype!
Ryan and I splurged to get a babysitter and see Iron Man 3, we got the tickets at Costco so that saved a little, but in this case I considered it an investment in my marraige and my husband's happiness! Plus the movie was AWESOME! Seeing it on a DVD rental just wouldn't compare.
Awesome!
