Monday, July 11 - I don't know how much I've written about Liz's new warehouse in her backyard but it is just a big space, has cement floors and there isn't even sheet rock on the walls. It's not air-conditioned which has been HOT but the worst part, in my opinion, is the bugs! There are huge spiders that we keep finding and tons of potato bugs too. They've sprayed for bugs, put spider traps against all the walls, and try to keep the doors closed but nothing seems to stop them. This spider might not seem too big but holy moly, us women were screaming like school girls when we found it! Yuck! It's definitely bigger in my mind than it is in this picture! Haha!
Tuesday, July 12 - Zack had an Activity Days Day Camp today. Their group went to someone's backyard pool, had a BBQ, and spent several hours together. They are such good kids and I'm glad Zack has them! This is Chase Coles, Zack, Zach Henderson, and Ian Horne.
Wednesday, July 13 - Jenni had a little surgery today. She had some tendons in her arm cut so that she can hopefully have more movement in her arm. The surgeon doing it specializes in this type of functional surgery and is very hopeful that it will help her. In the meantime, we picked up her girls and went to the summer movie. They love to go to lunch afterward, and so do I, so we went to Chick-Fil-A. It was fun spending the day with the girls and I am happy to report that the surgery went well. By tonight, she was moving her arm more freely than she has in the past. She's also going to get her hand and leg done later this year. Hooray for awesome specialists that can help!
Thursday, July 14 - Jenni is doing great but still recovering so mom and I took the kids to Cowabunga Bay. I am so glad that we got these season passes! They have definitely been a bright spot in our summer and the kids love going!
Friday, July 15 - Ricki got a $10 gift card to Holiday for her birthday and it has just been burning a hole in her pocket these past couple of weeks! :) She finally convinced me to go to the gas station and she decided to spend it all at once. I was kind of amazed at how much stuff she got for $10!
Saturday, July 16 - Happy birthday to my love! I surprised Simon by taking him downtown to The Melting Pot. He has never been there before so I thought it would be fun to take him. I was also able to talk both of our parents to go with us since both of their anniversaries are tomorrow! We had such a great afternoon/evening being together, visiting, and enjoying super yummy food!
Sunday, July 17 - We had a birthday party for these two cuties with the Howard side tonight. They got spoiled, as always, and almost everything went off without a hitch. The party started off outside until it started raining and lightening. So we quickly moved it indoors which was just fine. Then, I didn't realize I did this until later but I put a "10" candle in Zack's side of the peanut butter bars but he turned 11 this year! Duh!!! He didn't say anything and neither did anyone else but I now feel bad. Your age is a big deal when you're 11. Hopefully he know much I love and adore him! :) Their gifts from us included Zack got a new (to him) Apple Watch and Ricki got a new bike. They were both happy campers! :)
