A Really Fun Week

 Catching up on last week! Mary and I took two little girls out for a 'bike ride' last Monday and it was very slow going haha

Mostly because it turned into this with Q wanting to push Ady herself, which meant that I had to carry her bike. They were both being silly about walking and whiney... needless to say the bike/walk didn't last long! It ended with all of us eating cheese and fruit at the end, much happier to sit in the grass and eat and play haha

Raquel sent me a very thoughtful Mother's Day package in the mail. She knows how deep my love for Harry Potter is, and how I have loved him for pretty much my whole life haha! She knows I'm always looking for things to do to keep busy during boring shifts at work, so she said when she saw this she felt that it was perfect. So thoughtful! And she was right! I was VERY excited about it. I also got a new thirty-one bag! Woot!

Mary and I had plans to go for dinner with Dana and Dixie after work, so Jon watched Ady until Andrew was off work. David was in town with Chris Easter, who is the new male Wildside guide for this year! David is passing the torch. Jon had them both for dinner while I was out, and he said it was awesome, with these guys playing with the girls the whole time, and talking about camp in between. He thinks Chris is going to be a great fit this summer for the program. Sweet!

Q is taking Henrik for a walk, the only way he will come haha!

Jen sent me this updated pic of Micah - oh my goodness, he is SO beautiful!!! Like really truly a beautiful baby! Love when I get to catch up with my Jenny girl

Tuesdays mean dinner at the church! Eating our taco salad on the deck while Jon runs around getting last minute things set up for youth group

Hunger Games! This game is my baby. I have spent years with camp and church perfecting it and making it so fun. Jon got me to set it up and explain the rules. So fun!! I love the start, watching them run to the cornicopia (Jon's car this day) and attack each other

Gabi was surrounded and sensed that she was about to go down, stuck in this corner. So all of a sudden she whips out all these weapons and says "come closer and get me! I dare you!" oh man, this girl is awesome!! Love the intensity

We put a tag on her and she was a tracker jacker, getting kids when they were unsuspecting. She mostly just ran around where Jon went, but she was so happy doing it. She loves participating and being in on the action, and I love letting her, as long as she is following the rules and being respectful.

Ashley! She is such a good youth leader. And an even better friend

It always makes me laugh to see Jon in action. He gets right in there, and is energetic and fun and chases kids down. He is so so so good at what he does.

Zonked totally out and snoring loud after that busy night!! So small in her big girl bed

We had a bunch of running around to do in town, so we of course made a Starbucks run. Cake pop for her, skinny caramel mach with sugar free syrup for me. I can't cut out the latte, but I can attempt to make it slightly healthier haha

Outside doing gymnastics on the rocks. I got the best videos of her doing this. She was throwing her head back and being such a performer and jumping around. She is so full of energy!

I had my first physio appointment on Thursday and it went long and then we needed to grocery shop - so we got sushi while shopping (they make it fresh there and it is really good!) and another Starbucks and sat at the coffee shop at Save-On-Foods and had lunch. She is such a big girl, and so easy to do stuff with! She sat for my hour long appointment in the room with me and was quiet and just played by herself and was so good. Quinny, you are at such an awesome stage right now, and I love it! Your big goofy smile here says it all. Silly, adorable, easy and eats everything. How I got so lucky and get to be your mom is still such a mystery!
