Sunday Funday

Another busy weekend in the Edwards house. Sunday morning, however, was just wonderful! We woke up, brewed some coffee and walked down the street to get one of our favorite oh so delicious scones. On the way we made a little pit stop at the park and decided Clover should slide down the slide. Who says you need to have children to enjoy the playground?! 
As you can tell, she just loved it ;) 

Sunday afternoon was spent wedding dress shopping for one of my sweet friends, Kendal! We first went to Salem (no luck), then headed up to Portland and...She found THE DRESS! Ah! She looked amazingly beautiful and I am thrilled for her special day coming in August! We finished the evening out at McCormick's. So great to see and catch up with friends. 

And just a lil photo of my favorite person!
I'm so thankful for this guy. He works sooo hard for our little family. 
Look at that new buzz cut! Cutie patootie! Hehe!

This week is going to be so grand! I only work one day the.entire.week! Love having a lil taste of freedom! On the agenda for the week -- Cleaning, baking, meetings, lots of Clover walks, dentist appt (boo!), working out, meeting w/ family and a few overdue visits with friends. 
Ahhh, the life! :)

girl scout cookies and puppy love

This weekend was a doozy :) Friday I watched the boys from 8am-5:30, came home and grabbed dinner really quick and then watched Ella from 7-11. Long day, but I knew what was in store for the weekend and it got me through it! Saturday morning Clover had an appt at 7:30am to get spayed! Ah! Poor little thing! She was just so excited to see that nurse and it broke my heart that she had no idea as to what was coming. After she had been there for a few hours, the nurse called and said that they had just finished her check up and everything was perfect...except that she had a stubborn little puppy tooth that needed to be pulled. So our sweet pup went under the knife for surgery and had a tooth pulled all in one day. Such a little trooper. While she was under the knife, my Drew took me out on a shopping spree! We went out to breakfast together, grabbed some coffee and then headed down to the Woodburn outlets. To our luck they were having some great sales! We shopped for a awhile and then headed back up the road to rescue Cloves. We made a little pit stop at Anthro and Old Navy...annnnnnnd, to my surprise good ol Old Navy would have the answer to my prayers...Girl Scout Cookies! We bought three boxes and I stared at them the entire trip home. I have been craving Girl Scout cookies for so long. I have tried looking them up online to order and have driven by stores searching for those little brown and green vests covered in patches numerous times. No such luck. Thank you Old Navy for our delish cookies and my new $11.49 shirt. Productivity at it's best! 


After picking up Clover we had a few meetings scheduled. One literally 2 blocks from our house, and the other on the complete opposite side of town. We left Clover in her kennel for the meetings and I felt like such a horrible puppy parent! Ha! She was whimpering...and the dog has never let out a single peep concerning pain or sadness before so it was a little tough! But we she made it through..with lots of puppy ice cream treats ;) Little preview to parenthood I suppose...I can't even imagine!
We finished the weekend off with a mini cooking/baking sesh. Chicken Parmesan, oatmeal breakfast cookies and banana bread. All recipes from the lovely Pinterest. Our little condo has never had so many wonderful aromas going on at once! 

We are excited for another busy and productive week ahead!
And Spring Break! Oh my, I only work one day the entire WEEK!
