Friday's leftovers

"raise your hand if you like crazy stuff." -mirabelle

today, i thought, started out like a very normal day for us. imogen woke us all up by asking if we wanted to be in a {together club} where we all do things together. after i had showered and got everyone dressed, i had two in tears and received a text from my giant saying i needed to be at his dealership to get a state inspection on my car and then would have to go to the dmv for registration renewal. 😭
i wanted to cry too. ugh. the dmv {aka hell} my kiddos are always the worst at the dmv and going on a friday was a nightmare.
i am here to tell you i lived and i'm not even trying to be dramatic about it.

my giant got to attend his very first dance recital last weekend. he took his lunch break to come watch mirabelle and didn't realize it was going to be two hours long. she had to be dropped off early and refused to eat anything because she didn't want it to smear her lipstick {shhhh, don't tell her it was just tinted chapstick, i don't own any lipstick} poor girl had to be starving waiting to be one of the last dancers on stage. but they were so cute and she did such a good job.

juno has waited so very patiently for her special night with just mommy and daddy while grammy took the big girls for the night. she wasn't happy about missing time with grammy, but when i told her we were going to go build branch {from trolls} at build a bear she stopped her tears. we had a gift card there and got the very last branch they had. he was the store model and had to unstuff him so we could stuff him.
she hasn't let him out of her sight since.

me- "juno, what's your favorite food?"
juno- "blue."
me- "what your favorite restaurant?"
juno- "dinner."
me- "no, what's your favorite place to eat?"
juno- "i said dinner."

we had our end of the year field day for our CC community and i was so proud of imogen. she didn't give up, complain it was too hot outside or that she was too tired.
i think she needs more physical activity in her life.

I wish I would have taken more pictures.

i am completely taking mira off dairy and watching her gluten intake. i want to see if that helps her every so swollen tonsils go down.

the nights have been so perfect here and i'm trying to soak them of up with bike rides and even a baseball game before it gets so ugly hot out and never cools off.

our giant even took us out for ice cream one night. he let the girls get their cone dipped in chocolate. {word of warning though, ice cream seems to melt a lot faster when dipped in chocolate :)}

i feel so special that we've gotten to see our giant more. he hasn't had to work crazy hours every night and i'm so grateful for these nights with him because that is not our normal.

tomorrow is his birthday and he has to work. i have something up my sleeve for next weekend, but i can't share {because he might read this}. homegroup tonight, trying a new restaurant tomorrow and the start of our roof getting replaced on sunday.
happy weekend!
