Long weekend, ahhh!

It's been a crazy four days!! The kids are out of school, and camp hasn't started yet, so we are all enjoying spending time together. Thursday I took Aiden AND Anna to My Gym, and we all had a blast. I also got a call that same day that our negotiations to add a 3rd Kindermusik location came through. Starting in the Fall, my business is going to offer 20 classes in 3 locations. Holy Moly! I never in my wildest dreams thought that we would grow so fast. But Rachael and I are very open to new and exciting opportunities, and these wonderful ones keep coming. Much more info to come... but now now that is what is going on. I had a LOT of paperwork to do to prepare for the transition of the current Kindermusik program to ours (the current teacher is moving away). But that work is done now, and it's back to my normal work load. Processing Summer camp registrations.

Thursday night my friend Kristin cooked a yummy dinner for a bunch of us and I was out until 1:30am or so....no time to blog that night. That is the same bunch of ladies I'm going on my Mom's Weekend with in 2 weeks! Yey!! I can't wait!

Friday was a big work day. Elizabeth and Rachael came over and we worked on all sorts of Grow and Sing Studios related things. The kids had a great time playing...































Yesterday we took the kids to a birthday party. It was for a now 1 year old who comes to our Kindermusik classes. The kids had so much fun! There were water games outside... here are some pics!






















































Today, Will braved the stores with me while I did some shopping. I've lost enough weight that I'm finally needing some new clothes. I also decided that I would try on some bathing suits. This was VERY scary for me because even at my thinnest years ago, I HATED wearing a bathing suit. But... with the fact that I don't own one suit that fits, plus that I'm going away with my friends (who will all be wearing 2 pc suits), I decided to at least try. I actually found one that I liked a lot, so I bought it. I had Will take a picture because I honestly don't see myself the way I look now, I see myself that way I looked 20 lbs heavier. It's very hard to see your thinner self when I've been overweight for so long. I am posting it here, mainly because if I can post it here, I can wear it, right? Well, we'll see....



































Tomorrow we are going to Kristin's house for a Memorial Day gathering. Dori and the crew are coming too, so it should be fun.

Hope everyone is having a good long weekend! I'll be back on Tuesday with this week's weigh in results!

Love, Holly
