Good Saturday

Kevin started off the day with some time at the gym. He didn't get a bike for the spin class but he came home in time so I could go to the 9:00 spin class. I love it!
After burning some calories and making my legs burn, I came home and showered. Everyone got ready, we did the lunch thing, the boys made their beds, and then we ventured out of the house into the rain. I had to go to the mall to exchange some pants at Bohme that Kev gave me for Christmas. I wanted my first pair of skinny jeans and I found some! The girl there is always so good and encouraging. I've been wanting some boots, too so I dragged the family over to Forever Young where their boots were buy one get one free! It took me way too long to find two pair I wanted. Probably because of the sale, I could not find a brown pair I liked in my size. Kevin ended up talking me into a pair with a heel--will I be able to walk in them?
We were all ready for some Quiznos and it was an absolutely delicious meal! All day Ry has been looking forward to going to Cold Stone. It was their reward for filling up the jar from their chore/activity chart and he's been anxiously waiting since Tuesday. Before we took them though, we came home and had them do their "chores" they hadn't finished today (reading and picking up toys). It was a struggle to get Ry to cooperate but once he got moving (and mostly, once Kev started helping) it was a success.
Tyce was sleeping so I offered to stay home while Kev took Ry and Asher to Cold Stone. We also needed bread and milk so he suggested I take the boys and go to Macey's and he would stay home. "I'm naturally lazy" was his argument. So Ry, Asher, and I hurried at Macey's so they could get their well earned ice cream. Ry chose vanilla with gummy bears (which he had already decided on even before that jar was full) and Asher chose chocolate with M&M's. Even with the snow coming down Cold Stone was quite busy! We took their ice cream to go and they finished it at home. Asher went back and forth between not liking cold M&M's and liking them but he ended up eating them all so I guess he liked them.
While Kev got them ready and in bed I fed and played with Tyce. Kevin made us a banana chocolate milkshake that tasted fantastic (even though it was a bit too milky). We watched some tv, I put Tyce to bed, and then we ended the night with some American Idol. My eyes are heavy and tired so I'm off to bed!
