Mexican Jumping Beans....

We have had a crazy week. Preschool has been closed so the teachers could go to training, so I've been gone way more than I like to be from the kids this week. Lance has worked late...so late, that yesterday he clocked 18 straight hours at the hospital. Came home at 2:30am, slept for 4 hours and back at it until 5pm today. So, we went out to eat tonight....who would guess...yes, to eat Mexican. That is our favorite cuisine....our first date was Mexican....ate it at least once a week dating...went to Mexico as part of our honeymoon...and ate it all the time during my pregnancy. Needless to say...we now have two true Mexican jumping beans on our hands. The kids love cheese quesadillas. It was probably a year and a half ago that we were eating somewhere and Ella Claire told the waiter she wanted a quesadilla and said it correctly....we just looked at each other, laughed and shook our heads. Carter knows to ask the waiter if the salsa is regular or mild and the boy can put away some chips and salsa. We are looking forward to a relaxing weekend together. Last weekend was packed with non-family things, so we didn't get to see each other a lot. Lance had to teach Sunday School on Sunday, so that takes up a lot of his time to prepare...so we are planning on spending a lot of family time together. Tomorrow night we are going with our Sunday School class to a place in Hickory that serves BBQ outside with live bluegrass music.....can't wait to show you pictures.
