Whats on the menu for this weekend... Friday is up in the air...my favorite Saturday Jake and I are taking a Concealed Carry class. Coming from a family that loves to hunt and shoot their guns I can't tell you I have any memory of myself shooting any type of gun especially a handgun. I never once felt unsafe being home a lone at my house growing up. I never felt really unsafe being a lone at home in Lafayette...but man..there are times when Jake is away and I'm the "adult" at home now with the kids I get a little weirded out. I can't handle when cars drive slow by my house or have pulled in and sat there a minute or 2 ect ect.. Or watching the news and seeing a shooting in the parking lot where I shop...or how I was getting into my car at Walmart with my kids and this man starts talking to me in the next car about how he thinks he knows me and wants me to come over and talk to him (at the time I had my hand on my taser and still felt nervous!) ... I don't like feeling helpless so yeah I've wanted a gun and have wanted to take a CCW class so I feel confident in how to not feel helpless! So Jake got me a gun! :) My first time shooting I was a little dismayed like I'm not sure I can do this... then second time and with a little pointers I finally figured out the aiming lol... I kept saying I am going to be so embarrassed if I'm the only one who can't hit the target! Well I'm not really great but I'm going to keep practicing! Its actually kind of fun shooting.
Sunday is church day and mothers day. :) ... I love Sunday b.c. its unscheduled. we don't have any sports and its what we want to do which is usually outside working on sheep or barn stuff or sometimes its just vegging out doing absolutely nothing.... I've been doing a lot of that lately during the week so I'm usually up to being outside with actual people even if its dragging a chair for barn to barn lol .....
Today I went to Stuart's school for the Mother's day Celebration. It was so cute! He greeted me at the door with a paper flower bouquet. We sat first to eat a snack. Then we went and planted some seeds in a little cup he had painted. He planted only grass in mine lol :)... Then he made me a paper wind chime...which the greatest part he drew a picture of me with Skyla in my belly and then added himself to when he was in my belly too! lol He loved taking his little sister Shania around show all the "centers" he plays at. The most humorous was when we are eating snacks and a little girl comes sits by us and Stuart goes that is my girlfriend Lilly! lol (I have heard so much about also)... He proceeds to get her a napkin and cup for her snack AND tells me to scoot over! ha... and recalling throughout the whole time we were there we were not too far away from Lilly. It was pretty cute. and I wondered if Lilly knew she was his girlfriend- and after chatting with her Mom she said she was pretty smitten with him too. :)
