Guess who came to visit!!!

MEGAN!

 

All the way from AZ our sweet sweet Megan came down for what has become her annual summer vacation to visit us and our crazy selves! Unlike most of the trips she had taken we didn't have giant plans, I didn't hvae a ton of money to spend and I had to work 2 of the days she was here. I nearly thought this would be a bummer but as luck may have it we still ended up having a great time!!!

 

She arrived on a Thursday and we hung out at my work until I got to take her home and surprise the kids without secret visitor. Of course being Megan she was chill and had no problem surfing the internet watching Netflix while I finished my day out.

 

Once we got the kiddos we just chilled that night and the next day we went to a concert that was not planned but OH SO FUN! We went to Miranda. This was my 3rd Miranda concert and it was Megan and Jareds 1st. That was awesome. Carina and I got to share yet another special day because our first Miranda concert was also together! I tell ya. Country music. Brings everyone together. I already went over all the details about the concert in the last post so no need to go over that!

 

Saturday we literally chilled most the day while Jared and I put together this super bada** table and then Megan, Laneya and I all went to play mini golf while Rian and Jared did man stuff. You know. Like hardware stores and sitting on the couch scratching their...well. You get what I'm saying. I won at mini golf by one point. But I can admit that it was on a technicality and if I'm being totally honest me and Megan really tied. BUT. Doesn't mean I didn't take an awesome victory pic anyways. Haha.

 

 

When we got home we grubbed down on dinner with only 3 kids (Aidan, Rian and Laneya) and had a pretty quiet night at home watching weird movies (I do not recommend Noah) and getting tired quickly.

 

Sunday we just hung at home again and did a little back to school shopping for some shoes. Seriously we knocked it out super fast all things considered. We had only 1 little meltdown but when shopping for shoes. Who doesn't have meltdowns. Ya know? Serious business. Once we got home we of course had to do a quick photo op of our accomplishment and Megan was just so sweet and modeled for us. Classic.

 

 

Monday she stayed and chilled with all the littles and Jared at the house and then later that night after we dropped the kiddos off Megan and I went to dinner and a movie. I introduced her to Red Rock Café where we chowed down on a serious Tri.Tip and BBQ pork sammich. NOMS! After that we went to see Step Up. Like the 100th one, but not gonna lie. It was still cute. How can you go wrong with a movie based around awesome dancing and crappy dialogue. You can't.

 

Tuesday morning we left nice and early and we hit up Starbucks and went for a yummy deli sammich at the best 'fresh' bread deli in San Jose. Cough Cough. I have only been to that one so I could be biast. Then we had to take Megan to the airport. Of course it always seems like we didn't get enough time with her and I wish she could have stayed longer but alas, I suppose we had to return her to her ACTUAL family. Shucks!

 

 

We decided we will seriously stick to this annual tradition and next year we will plan it around a baseball or football game. I cant wait. I never thought so many years back that my friends little sister would become such a great friend and adopted little sister to me but I sure am grateful. We love you Megan! Can't wait to see you again!!
