My Weekend World

I love weekends in my opinion its when LIFE begins lol! Its my chance to to feel free and party like its 1999, well you know what I mean. I enjoy going to events and outings however this weekend is pretty laid back. Lets get the party started with Jaydon`s birthday party on Friday (my bff`s nephew) at Fun Junction USA! We had a great time with all the rides, go carts riding, and the indoor playground. He is a big boy now and I know he enjoyed his party! Oh Fun Junction formally Dixieland in Fayetteville was on our summer activities list. I have been there in a while, anywho you should check it out because they have $1 rides and attractions.

Part 2 on Saturday I met a a mommy friend girl at the mall for a kiddie event that I completely missed! Mike the Knight was there with all his knights and princess! You know from the cartoon from Nick Junior! We did some mall surfing and chit chatting because I had not seen her since high school and via facebook......she got Chase`s some event goodies and we got a little dolled up!
tried on a pink matte lippy and threw my glitter the end! Her little ladies are the cutest, just wanted to take them home with me! I have been feeling the baby girl blues but that`s a whole other post!

Saved the best for last! Sunday will be spent in God`s house......whoot. I must may caught up on my domestic duties.



Hope yall had a wonderful weekend!!! What did you do or not do?

Sprayground In The City

Its Oooo-ffical summer is upon us and I feel like if we can`t beat the heat we must join it! Yeah you know about the traditional and a wee bit pricey water parks but I bet you never heard of this! A splash pad or sprayground is a wonderful hybrid between a water park and a swimming pool ......playground + water!!!! They are awesome and you can pack up the cooler and make a whole day of it if you want! Bring all the usual summer pool musts; like sun tan lotion, swim suits, and beach towels, oh yeah its the real deal baby! I love to take my son and we have been to a few spraygrounds around Atlanta because its free, he go to playground before or after, and mama can keep her natural dry! They have several locations in the metro Atlanta and other surrounding areas. Did I mention that they are just a few years old?? Here is a list of the hot, I mean cool spots........some I have went to!

• Riverside Splash N Play -$1 (Roswell)
• Spray Station at East Roswell Park -$1 (Roswell)
• Center Hill Park and Sprayground (Atlanta)
• Stanton Park and Splash N Play (Atlanta)
• Perkerson Park Splash Pad (Atlanta)
• Historic Fourth Ward Park and Sprayground (Atlanta)
• Laurel Park Sprayground (Gainesville)
• Spray Pad at Old Atlanta Park -$2 (Suwanee)

There are bunch of other local pools, fountains and aquatic centers near you so let the kids get their water fun on this summer!

                                             This is the restroom at Old Fourth Ward Park, fancy!!!

                                                  Baby bear acting shy at Old Fourth Ward.            

                                                               

                                                         Look at sun shining on my son!

            Mommy and me but check out that flight of stairs behind me and the also have a lake, trails, and other sitting areas around Old 4W.

At Old 4W you do get that urban city feel/view.

 

                  Omg this is not even half of the playground in which its eco friendly and very futuristic, see that turf like ground?  

This is D.H Stanton and it was pretty cool! They have mini mountains, picnic areas, and a huge multi purpose field.

We have also visited Perkerson Park Splash pad last year! Well hope this helps and how do you and your family keep cool in the summer time?

Aging with Grace

Fast forward about 20 years from now and imagine that your hair has turned completely GREY!!! I would not dye or try to cover up my fabulous grey locks so don't judge me lol because that means I have maturity and wisdom so I must rock it! What would you do flaunt it, dye it, or cover it up??  Hair is very important to us and we love to try new styles and hair products so dying your hair may be easy as you rocking the latest trend! In addition to that what would you want your grand kids to call you when you become a fabulous grandma? Mimi, yaya (grandma in Spanish), or gram are some options. Recently I have heard of sugar mama and her sugar babies in addition to glam-ma and her glam babies! We all love our big mama and nana right! I am looking forward to being a fab women of certain age......when the time comes! Whatever the hair color and whatever the grand kids call you all that matters is true beauty never fades. Oh and I will stay in lane my with my church hats, garden parties and family Sunday dinners!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In addition we need to maintain a healthy lifestyle by exercising and eating correctly! Being positive and doing positive activities will enhance our graceful age as well! We are beautiful today and we will be forever because our beauty is TIMELESS!
