Monday, May 16 - Since Jenni and BJ are in crunch time for packing up and moving their house, we came to Grandma Howard's to mow, have dinner with her, and do family night. I can feel that mowing is becoming one of my favorite things to do! (Especially since I don't do any work!)
Tuesday, May 17 - I don't know if I can put into words the craziness that was today. My morning started out with my mom texting Jenni and I with the first picture saying that she thought her ankle was broken. I thought so too so I told her to stay put and that I was on my way to get her to take her to the doctor. We went and had it x-rayed but it wasn't broken so it's just a nasty sprain. It couldn't have had worse timing though. Today was McCullough moving day! Mom & I took lunch over to Jenni's then I ran her home and got back to Jenni's around 3:00 to finally start helping. There was still a lot to do so I went to work. We boxed things, cleaned things, and moved things out into trailers. The young men and women plus a handful of adult leaders and neighbors all came to help. I had to leave at 6:15 to pick up my big kids, meet Simon at home, and take Nick to Pack Meeting. By the time we got back around 8:00, almost everything was done. There were just a few items left in the basement and the garage. That was it! Thank heaven for loving ward members that are willing to give up their evening to help move. I am happy to report that they are all moved out and ready to have their new house painted and carpeted so they can move in.
Wednesday, May 18 - I got to go to the school with my younger kids to have lunch with my big kids for Kendra's birthday. Yes, her birthday was a full month ago but the school only does this once per month and we were off track during her birthday month. It is always fun to go to the school and see the kids interact with their friends. Plus, it's still okay to be seen with your mom when you're in 4th and 2nd grade.
Thursday, May 19 - I had a really busy day! I ran in the morning, cleaned the house all day, then ran errands this evening. I don't usually get much over 15,000 on my good days so this was a surprise when I nearly hit 20,000!
Friday, May 20 - I took myself birthday shopping! Grandma and Jim gave me money for an Alex and Ani bracelet so these are the two I picked. Love them! I also went to RunGr8 in Riverton and bought me some new running shoes...from Simon. :) It's been a good birthday year!
Saturday, May 21 - Ryan did our taxes for us this year and last so we wanted to take him and Ashley out to say thank you. We dropped all 5 kids off at Dave & Viv's then headed over to the Cheesecake Factory. We had a 90 minute wait but once we were in, it was so worth it!
Sunday, May 22 - Simon is pretty proud of his most recent online purchase. He bought a surveillance camera for our front door. He gets notified every time there is movement on our porch. He now gets to see how often the neighborhood kids come over to play. :) It's a fun new little toy!
