Well, I have to admit-I am not a summer person, I don't like the heat and I get really excited for fall this time of year. I took Julia and Jack school shopping yesterday and I have to say I still get really excited to buy school supplies, just like I did when I was little. It somehow brings me back to the days of walking to Target with my sister, Cricket, with two dollars and buying spiral notebooks and pens and then a soft pretzel for lunch---back then you could buy all that for $2!
So, we got all their stuff, some really cute clothes (another thing that I get more excited about than they do!) and we went to see Kung Fu Panda and out to pizza. It was really fun to have a day with just Julia and Jack and just be able to hang out with them and joke around with all their silliness. Thanks to Aaron for staying home with Adam and Luke.
Then today we had Aaron's work party & I can only explain this annual event as a kid's dream come true. There is unlimited snow cones, cotton candy, ice cream truck with all different kids of ice cream treats, games, etc. I loved watching Jack go on the rock wall in making it look effortless for a five year old and Adam go flying down the huge blow up slide without blinking an eye and Julia was so good to keep up with Adam and Luke was happily asleep for this whole event!
