{1}Doing work!
On Saturday Thenewguy and I went to a volunteer event held by Target (he works there) & Chicago Cares I learned that Target is super involved in charity work. I’m sure everyone else knew but I had no idea. Anyway, it was great, and he was the only rep from his store going so he asked me to join. I won’t lie getting up before 10 am on a Saturday is not my idea of a good time but I am so glad that I did. We drove down to the south side of the city and got to work helping re-paint a school. Was an awesome time and I got to meet some great people while helping!

| Excuse my face…I don’t normally get up at 7 am on a Saturday. |
When he should have been painting he was snapchatting!
{2} Family Dinner!
After an unfortunate car accident on our way home from volunteering (we are ok, his car is not) we rallied our beat up selves and headed to the burbs for a family dinner. They have a new baby in the family so of course I was all over her all night. It has been great getting to know his family and being welcomed in so quickly!
He is not a fan of babies…
{4} Laying around
I don’t get to lay around as often as I would like. But Sunday was banana pancakes, bacon and marvel movies and it was AMAZING!
{5} Monday Funday!
Monday there was no work so I headed to the burbs to watch Jumanji with my sis & nephew and then have a great “girls night” dinner with my mom and sis. First, Jumanji is hilarious and don’t let anyone tell you different. Second, I haven’t had a night with just my mom & sister in a long time and it was so freaking nice to sit and talk to them. My sister has never had Thai food before and guys…I could eat Thai everyday! In an effort to support her new adventure into being vegan we ordered only food she could eat and shared. It was fantastic! Sooo if you are ever in Naperville stop at Bangkok Village.
Even though he is not a fan of babies, it is such a cute photo. I am so glad you are ok from the car accident.
Aww so sorry you got in an accident. Love lay around Sunday’s. I only get a couple a year and they are grand!
Oh no! sorry to hear aboutthe accident, but happy you guys are OK. I knew Target was a very charitable company, it's nice to see the work in action! Hope you had a great weekend!
