What a weekend!

We had a busy weekend. Beau was off today and he was off friday so we had a great four day weekend with daddy being home. We had a yard sale on sat. (we did ok, not great) and then went out for pizza sat night with some friends. There is a new place in town that has real Chicago pizza!! It's so yummy. Makes us want to go back to Chi-town. Hopefully soon we'll get to visit again. 
Yesterday we worked in the nursery at church (2 yr. olds!) and Copeland was with us because we he was screaming in his class and they couldn't get him to calm down. We are not giving him his te' te' (aka paci) except for at night, and I guess he was a wreck - so they brought him to us and he hung out with the big kids!!   Today we went to the pool since it was the last day it's open :(   We had to enjoy one last summer day! Then we headed up to Independence. Beau has an aunt and uncle there (beau's dad's sister and her family).  We went to a fish fry and hung out. Copeland played and played with the little girls, one being his cousin, and of course the dog. He was so dirty by the time we left!  It's nice to go to family functions even if it's not our family. It was Beau's aunt's in-laws. But they except us like family. It helps since we don't have family out here and can't be with them on holidays like today. They are such a blessing and glad they are only an hour away. We don't get to see them that often, but it's nice to know they are there. 
Well that's our weekend - sorry I don't have any pictures... I forgot to grab the camera all weekend! 
Hope everyone has a good week and God bless!! :)
