Busy, busy, busy


Kayley went to Lazerstar on Wednesday with her day camp. I remember loving that place! She had so much fun playing lazer tag and playing video games. Tyler did a bunch of work there back when the kids were itty bitty. There was a coffee shop on the side of the building and he would get free drinks for me! That seems like forever ago.

She also had soccer on Wednesday. She was so cute in her soccer cleats and shin guards! Her team is the Firebombs and the color will be red for the uniforms. I asked her if she suggested the name and the color. She said no, the other girls came up with it! It's like Kayley's dreams are all coming true!

Oh Friday. It's my day off yet its really not. Here's what I've accomplished today: I dropped Cole at school, went to the gym, went home for a speedy shower, took Kayley to see Sue, went to pick up my glasses (my eyes are better now, yay!), went to Starbucks to get my free drink, picked up Cole, met the Francos at the park and hung out for two hours, went home for a short rest for the kids (I cleaned out some junk in the garage), met Rachel at Davids Bridal to get my dress ordered and now I'm home with the kids and I'm going to pass out from exhaustion.

I probably wouldn't be so tired if we hadn't gone to the fair yesterday. I'm glad we did though. My mom suggested we park and ride and it was so much better than having to pay for parking. It was military appreciation day so I got us all in for free! The kids enjoyed the rides and the exhibits too. We saw the animals (and smelled them, yuck) and they reminded me of Kim and her Santa Paula animal raising days! I don't get it personally. Rows and rows of animals. Eh, whatever floats your boat. My mom had never experienced a funnel cake before so we ate that and a giant turkey leg for dinner. Yum! Fun times were had by all.

Man, I always thought that as my kids got older life would get easier. Ha, that's a joke. The kids themselves are easier but everything else gets crazier. I don't love it. And school starts soon! I need an assistant!

It's about the money, steph. :) I didn't raise the animals to be auctioned off and slaughtered for the love of them. Plus it's fun camping for the week with everyone. I can't to see pictures of kayley playing soccer. I was on a red team called the fireballs. I think firebombs is way cooler.

I was thinking of Kim and her heifers the other day, too. I'm glad that you had fun, and your food choices sound delish.

Yay for the bridal gown!
