310.365.2013 Finished! (Well, almost)

Back to work my minions! After fixing a delightful breakfast in the new kitchen, I sent my crew back in work. Dave and Thom went to the townhome to collect some more things. Mary and I finished the remaining boxes and hung up some drapes. Quite fun! Now all we have left is the office and stereo equipment… So excited!

This afternoon we went over to the Kemmetmueller’s to celebrate Beth’s birthday and get ready for the Vikings game with the Packers.

There was a lot of planning of accessories for the game tonight. Matthew wins the prize for most crazy and Mary really enjoyed it.

259.365.2013 Happy Birthday Dave!

Woo hoo!! Such a day of celebrations!!

First, Diohgé had such a great day at daycare. He was so tuckered that he could barely stand up in the car to look out the window.

Second, THEY ACCEPTED OUR OFFER! We have an inspection this Wednesday and I am so excited… More to come…

But most importantly, today is Dave’s birthday! Happy 32nd Dave! I’m glad that we could have a really bad cheat day!! (Bread, pizza, wine and ice cream cake!) And I love your new found appreciation for red wine!

230.365.2013 The Zoo

Today was nice and easy… Well, maybe. It was kind of like visiting a zoo. We went to church and had a good service. Then we all went to Donatos and had a yummy pizza lunch. The gluten-free veggie pizza is great!!

Afterwards, we went to my moms house for a family pic and the kids opened some birthday presents. (Yes, they all got something.)

And on the way back, Jack Hannah was on our flight!! He’s a zoo-legend. I mean, I remember him from when I was a kid and he even was in his safari gear and hat.

Now I’m waiting at baggage claim so I can go home and see this boy!
