Wha'd Up?

This past weekend was the Labour Day long weekend.  Twin 2 had some company from PE Island and Twin 1 went down home for the weekend  We'll recap Twin 2's weekend.

Thursday
Both Twin 1 and Twin 2 took the day off as the weather forecast was calling for 30 degree temps and sunny all around.  Twin 1 went over to Twin 2’s and we laid out just for a few hours.  We didn’t want to overdue it being our first time in the sun/heat.  It certainly didn’t look like Mexico but it felt like it.  Thursday evening Twin 2 and her husband went golfing for their first round this summer.  They didn’t realize how bad the bugs were but luckily the person they were paired with gave them a bit of bug spray so they could make it through the night.  Bug spray will be bought for the next round.

Friday
Friday evening Twin 2 had her BFF from college and her two kids come over from PE Island.  They arrived around 7:30 pm so there was a lot of catching up to do as it has been around 8 months since they last seen each other.

Saturday
Twin 2 and Flo took the kids down to Oaklawn Farm Zoo.  We arrived around 12:30 pm and stayed for a few hours.  It was a beautiful day but the wind sure was chilly.  On the way down to the zoo we took Highway 101 and had no problem finding it.  On the way back however, our GPS took us through the back roads of NS and ended up in Chester and onto the 103.  That was quite the adventure.  Once we finally made our way back home we took a trip to Costco and then back home for supper and a fire.  Initially there was a fire ban on for the weekend but on Saturday it was lifted so we could burn between 7 pm and 8 am, which was great because it filled up our evening and entertained the kids.

Sunday
Sunday morning Flo and the kids took off back home and Twin 2 had a little peace and quiet.  Later on in the day Twin 2 and Sista Wi went out for groceries and Twin 2 did some meal prep for herself and Twin 1 (Twin 1 was down home in NH so Twin 2 did the groceries and meals for the week for them both). 

Monday
Monday was a lazy day and even though it was nice out Twin 2 sat and watched Life in Pieces all day on Netflix and cooked a roast. 

All in all, a great weekend.  The weather is finally starting to turn around and spring/summer is in the air!
