Starting the Garden

Today while Josh was at work I planted red onions, carrots, and dill.  Then I had to stop to feed the kiddos lunch.  When Josh got home he planted lettuce, and some broccoli, and separated and spread out the strawberries. Can't wait to see it all come up!  WooHoo! 

ZOO

Today I woke up and saw that it was going to be 69 degrees, so I called my mom and sister and asked if they would like to go to the zoo (also, no school). 

So, we went to the zoo!  We ate lunch at a park and got to the zoo at about noon.  The kids were so excited.  My kids were even more excited that Josh called when we got there to tell me his boss gave everyone the afternoon off!  So, he came to the zoo, too!  We had so much fun and it was such a warm day.

That made me in the mood to BBQ.  So, I did!  YUM!

We're Back

Woke up at 8am, and got up, packed and went to breakfast.  Which was paid for, and very yummy.  Then we headed home, stopping at Old Navy and Nordstrom Rack first.

The girls were very happy to see us.  I spent the afternoon on the couch cuddled up with them... meaning I didn't unpack or do the laundry! 

We gave the girls our gift... stamps!  Charlie was the only one that didn't like it that much.

Relaxation

We woke up this morning and had breakfast, and then Josh had a 45 minute meeting.  While he was doing that I was painting my nails, and getting ready for a day with my hubby.  At 10am we went to a very nice mall across from our hotel.  I went in to a Bloomingdales for the first time.  Picked up a $400 dress, put it down, and then went to a sale rack and picked up a coat, it was on sale for $1,495.  After that, we left that store, and headed to the toy store to find something for the girls.
Then, we headed to the beach.  We paid $15 to park the car, and then walked down to the beach, and found a little restaurant.  The wait was over an hour... so we walked the beach.

We ate lunch at 1:00.  Fish and Chips, and Clam Chowder.

Then we headed back to the hotel and took a NAP.  Yes, a nap.  Over one hour of uninterrupted sleep, in the middle of the afternoon! We woke up, still tired, but got up and got ready for the night.  I put on the giant jersey (Thanks, Cam)... and then the tutu.  We had a very fun night!  A great end to a great day.

Day Off

Today Josh had the day off, because we have to drive to Newport Beach, which is a 4 1/2 hour drive.  So, Josh came to school with me and Charlie.  She was so excited to have him there.  She told him that I never play with her at school (which is NOT true)... so he made sure to get on the floor and play with her.

Also, Josh got to see how long it is there, and how tired you get from sitting there... he asked a few times when it was over.

Hair

I have so many heads to do.  Today is gymnastics and karate.  Tonight should be bath night, but we get home really late.  So, I gave the girls a bath this afternoon, and then I did ALL of their hair... which for their activities needs to be pulled back.  Charlie wanted pigtails, so then Morgan did when it was her turn, and then Hayden did as well. 

Dinner

So, I got called in to sub in the Pre-K room tonight at church.  I didn't get time to really make dinner... so I warmed up some leftovers for Josh and the girls, and he added some stuff to it, then I took a bite and ran out the door.  But first I grabbed my Midnight Milkyway that Josh brought home for me.  We got in a little fight today, and Josh came home with TWO of these instead of flowers, because you can't eat flowers - his words.  :) 

Anyway, this was my dinner.  I did have to eat some cheese and crackers at 10pm because I was STARVING.
