Monday, July 6 - Dave and Viv came over again tonight to have ice cream. :) We all rode together to Iceberg for cones and yum, they are good! We also took a little walking adventure out our backyard on the dirt trail. We walked over and saw the Campbell's and the Sivertson's horses. What a fun Family Night!
Tuesday, July 7 - I am spending lots of time this week in my office...alone! I am trying to get everything ready for Simon's big 40th birthday bash this Saturday. I am going to put pictures of Simon in these centerpieces too but this is a little preview of what is to come.
Wednesday, July 8 - Our summer of fun is kind of a bummer. It consists of only going to outdoor places that we can stay plenty far away from everyone else. However, today was a little more fun. Simon turned on the sprinklers in the backyard for the kids and you would have thought they died and went to heaven! They had a blast out there together. When they all play together, my mommy-heart soars!
Thursday, July 9 - Happiest of birthdays to my boyfriend Zack! Oh man I love this kid! He got a new Pro Scooter at our family party last week so he only got a squirt gun (that lasted one day) and a package of Reese's. Zack's big request for today was Chick-Fil-A so we got that and took it to the splash park. He also wanted to have a late night with Chase and Anna so they came over at 6:00, had Zack's favorite dinner (cinnamon rolls, eggs, and bacon), and played the PlayStation until 9:30.
Friday, July 10 - Ricki got a cute new owl bedding set for her birthday. Mom crocheted those three matching owls - SOOO cute! I had to take a picture of this though because as we were cleaning up her room together, I asked Ricki to put her scrapbook in her closet. She said, "No, I'm going to keep it here because I like to read it at night". She simply loves this book that's all about her. Thanks to Aunt Jenni for giving it to her!
Saturday, July 11 - The big day has arrived! We had Simon's big 40th birthday bash at the Western Springs Park. I did the decorating with the help of my mom, sister, and Marisa. We had the food catered from Las Glorias (and a little from McDonald's and Amie's kitchen). I made the cake that says, "Holy crap you're old" and that was the theme of the evening. Everything was toilet paper and poop emoji's. Haha! It turned out great and so many came to support my old guy! Such a great time together celebrating the man I love.
Sunday, July 12 - We had SOOOOO much food leftover. Seriously, we ate less than half of the rice and beans they gave us at Simon's party. So we had Las Glorias part II at my parent's house tonight. We invited Amie and Alex to come over and repeated yesterday's dinner. :) And guess what, it was just as good the second day as it was the first!
