Easter and we closed!

Usually Brian's office closes at noon the day before a holiday. Not this year. New CEO = new way. It worked out fine since we CLOSED on our refi Friday night at 5pm. Someone came to our house and shoved papers in front of us and we signed until our hands cramped. It only took almost 5 months. Once the loan is funded (Tuesday at midnight) Brian is going to file complaints. I know it won't do any good, but maybe if there are enough complaints eventually they won't be able to ignore it anymore.

After we closed we headed to Houston. We got in around 9:30pm. I dropped Brian and Logan off at urgent care. Logan pulled a wooden car down on his face Friday afternoon. He had a little cut and some swelling. I tried to put some ice on it, but that lasted about 2 seconds. I didn't think too much about it but on the ride to Houston Logan started covering her eye and complaining that it hurt. Brian and I both thought that it looked like he was having trouble focusing. I started worrying about a detached retina so wanted to get it checked out ASAP. The doctor said he was fine. I think he was probably just tired, rubbed his eye and was having trouble focusing because he was so exhausted. No naps these days and he was 2 hours past bedtime.

Saturday we headed over to Kingwood and had a nice Easter lunch with Grammy, Papaw, Uncle Greg, Aunt Jennifer and Lila.  The kids did an egg hunt and played outside a bit.  The weather was perfect.  We went back over to The Woodlands and hit up Rico's for dinner.  Yum.

Sunday I had big plans to make it to church, but that didn't happen.  I'm sure it would be an hour of me sweating and having hypertension trying to make sure Logan didn't disturb anyone or hit/bite/push/pinch kids in the cry room.  Church just isn't in our immediate future.  Maybe one day.  We got in the spa and dyed Easter eggs instead.  The Easter Bunny stopped by and left some eggs to hunt in the front yard too.

We headed back to Austin in the nick of time to avoid severe storms all around us.  We actually had great weather.  There were a LOT of people on the roads and traffic was pretty heavy.

Monday after working out I witnessed a car accident.  I was the first person to stop and it was so scary not knowing what I was going to find behind all of the air bags.  Luckily everyone was fine.  This woman just completely ran a red light.  Not even paying attention.  She was in the morning zone out or something.  I was talking to her and trying to calm her down and she was telling me that she just bought the car the day before.  I guess she hit a deer last week and totaled her other car.  She kept asking me if her car was 'bad.'  I was like 'uh, it's not great.'  Yep, she totaled her brand spanking new Volvo SUV.  I was pretty impressed with the encasement of air bags around the entire passenger area.  The other guy had an older Impala and he was a little shaken up, but nothing major.

This week had been non stop cleaning.  I borrowed a steam carpet cleaner from a friend and have been slowly cleaning all of the carpets.  Logan decided to flush a flashlight down the downstairs toilet so we had the fun task of cleaning that up last night.  It was especially fun because a couple of people forgot that it was broken and did some #2's in there.  Gross.  So that room was completely sanitized.  I do love freshly washed bath mats.

Tomorrow is Isabel's birthday celebration at school.  We made some cupcakes and I'll take them tomorrow afternoon.
