Weekend Update in iPhone Pics {7.28.13}

I haven't done a weekend in iPhone pics in 2 months, so I figured I should share what we were up to this past weekend! Our weekend started with celebrating my Grandma Dede's 81st birthday party. Our family met up at Texas Land & Cattle on Thursday night. My Uncle Paul flew into town and was staying with my parents so we decided to spend the night there too to get time to visit with him. The more the merrier, right? Ryan and I got to sneak away Friday morning for a coffee date and then hung out at my parents' house while Eva napped. 

After nap time we headed to Royse City to hang out with Ryan's family. Our nieces were already staying there so we got some fun aunt and uncle time with them. We played Racko and Skipbo. It is so fun hanging out with them and getting to know their personalities as they grow up and aren't quite so little any more. 

Friday night we celebrated birthdays for my sister in-law, Amanda, and my mother in-law. Lots of cake. Lots of pie. Lots of little girl cousins laughing and playing everywhere. Have I mentioned that I absolutely adore my 3 nieces? We weren't planning on spending the night but it was already late and we had a tired munchkin with tired parents so we decided to sleep there.

Eva decided to wake up around 5 am (instead of 8 am like she normally does) and consequently fell asleep when we were two minutes from home. We let her take a morning nap and thankfully she also took an afternoon nap. Between naps we went to the community pool to play in the water all together. Check out the handsome "merman" in the top right photo. Saturday evening we went to Walmart - somebody is loving taking selfies of herself on Mama's iPhone.  

Sunday morning started with a bountiful breakfast for Eva. This girl must be getting ready to grow like a weed because she has been eating nonstop this past week. Every time I turn around she is saying "Eat, eat!" Where is all that food going? Sunday afternoon we watched Despicable Me - so cute! - and face timed Nana to say, "Happy Birthday!" Eva loves using face time to talk to her grandmas. Our weekend was wrapped up with our youth group at our house. The 3 college interns led Sunday night and they did an excellent job teaching about integrity. Now on to a new week as I get ready to take a big leap into.....POTTY TRAINING! Prayers for wisdom and patience appreciated :)
