So here goes!
Little bit of silly park fun...while Jared decided to get his nap on.
Planted some more flowers in the little planter in the backyard. Made some quick pot changes also as our old wood barrel was falling apart. Literally.
Even added a hummingbird feeder but so far all we caught was Jared. Guess he had to make sure it tasted good. Silly!
Sent Neya off to Coloma for a 2 day 3 night trip. She had a blast!
Took Rian out for Monday Slurpees. A tradition he has at his daddies that I needed to uphold for him! We had my kiddos all week so we got to do lots of fun things we don't get to during the week. Yay for extra time with them!
All 8 of us headed out to cheer Tyler on during his concert/recital at his school. Pretty neat to see how far he has come this year, even since his last recital. Amazing!
Jared's littles had Friday off but my kids did not so we decided to take them to the Race Track and had a great time. I might add that Aidan and I had an extra great time because we won. However if you ask Jared he will say he 'let us win' and Tyler will say his car broke. Of course.
On Saturday May 24th we got to go out for my girls birthday (the big 32) and not only did we have lots of fun and get dressed up, she also decided to show her guns a bit during Karaoke. Hehe.
Sunday we went to a BBQ with two of my three littles (sadly the Luoma Littles had to go home on Saturday) and we had a blast. I am sure we will be back again and this time with everyone! Assuming of course Sharidy and Erik are prepared for us. Haha.
Little lady HAS to have her goggles.
Rian jumping in. He is such a water kid!
Sunday night after a long day of swimming and while it was just us two I did the impossible. I got Jared to go Sushi with me. Not only that but he even used chopsticks....WELL. Like. No longer does he look like a rookie. Seems I may slowly be rubbing off on him...giggle giggle laugh laugh. He did eat a few pieces of each sushi roll and although I don't get anything particularly scary and raw it was still a big step for him and I am extremely lucky that he doesn't mind stepping out of his comfort zone for me. Small gesture. Great appreciation.
All that about sums up the last week or two. Not to crazy but still a blast. I have to say that after having a house full of kids for more than just a couple days that this week has already been super boring! BOO!
Also. I swear we do have a teenager also only she barely comes out of her little cave and although we miss her I am sure she will return to pics soon! Or at least I hope so because she has a very important day coming up...8th Grade Graduation! So grown up!
Lastly. I have to remember that this weekend there was a holiday celebrated. One that has always held near and dear to my heart. Memorial Day. A day to celebrate those that have given their lives or who have lost a love one all in the name of freedom. Our freedom. My uncles, grandfathers, cousins, step father and now my hunny have all proudly served in the military. It doesn't matter the branch, the reason they joined or the length of time served. What matters is that they are appreciated that for the life they lead and the sacrifice them and so many others have given for us as Americans. I love you all. So very much.
Thank you.
