The LaPrade Lifestyle

What a wild week at work! By Friday the girls from work were ready for a girls night out! We had completed mass hire interviews from 7am-7pm and we were done! After work we headed over to Cristina's for a relaxing evening! It was fun to laugh and goof around after work with the entertaining ladies from work! I love the chips and salsa at Cristina's!!!

On Saturday I worked 6am -4pm and that was intense!! After work Melissa Glidden and I headed out for a fun girls night! Cheesecake factory and a movie at stonebriar! We were trying to see Sex and the City 2 but we talked a little too much at Cheesecake factory and it was sold out by the time we got to the theater so we looked into seeing Killers which I must say was pretty cute! A crazy weekend at work followed by fun with the girls!!

Wow what a week and weekend!! KC came into town for a few days and we had a blast! We laid out by the pool, went shopping, and enjoyed catching up and hanging out together!! Here are a few pics of the fun!

We went shopping in downtown Mckinney and of course had to stop in the mom and pop popcorn and candy store! It's so cute in there! I got Ross bacon flavored gumballs because lately he is a little obsessed with bacon on everything!

KC got to meet Parker and he really enjoyed her company for a few days!

Kinley and Chance played outside in the park and took a nice walk in the summer heat!

Chance has gotten so big and he is very interested in Thomas the train!
Big smiles and full of life!

While pushing Kinley on the swings she is doing her adorable pose of "gorgeous" where she puts her hand on her hip, smiles and says gorgeous!! So cute! It was great to see them and see how fast they have grown up! We helped PJ (KC's brother) celebrate his birthday on Saturday with a fun petting zoo, swimming, and of course a bounce house! It was an amazing birthday celebration! Can't wait to see you guys again!!Also, on Saturday Ross and I took Parker to the dog park and it was kinda sad becuase he was the only little dog there! There were tons of big dogs and Ross is always trying to get me to let him go over there and play with them but for the dogs twice Parker's size he would be a snack for most of them and I really don't want that to happen!

On Sunday we had a volleyball and bbq event for JCP Lewisville to raise funds for united way! It was a fun event to get out and have some fun outside of work! I played a little volleyball and well let's just say that's not my sport and I will stick to running! This is Allyson working on her mad volleyball skills!!haha!

Happy Memorial Day weekend!! We had fun!! We worked and played over the weekend and enjoyed family time! Saturday I worked a little and then went to the pool with mom where we relaxed and tanned! Then we went shopping in allen!! On Monday my Dad cooked all day...pork, chicken, corn on the cob, baked potatoes and french bread! It was a great meal! After dinner we walked the golf course looking for inspiration for a pool for the backyard for next year!! yipee!!
