My Giant and My Philly

4/25

5/4

Baseball has taken over our lives the last couple months and I'm okay with that.
It makes us crazy busy, but the breaks from homework, cooking, and cleaning are good.

Being Fancy

4/16

We got our 25 cents worth.

4/17

Target should be okay with this since they're all about red balls.

Sally was star of the week and got some nice notes from her classmates.

This one is my favorite.

She's so fancy.

The above two pictures are from the father and sons campout.

I LOVE having a quiet day with just Sally.

She just wanted to stay home and do puzzles before going swimming with friends.

He thought it was hidden.

This is most of my CTR 4 primary class (missing Katie and Maya).

HaJyn's family just moved to Hawaii, so we needed a picture.

Those are some funny, funny kids.

Who are smart.

And like snacks.

4/26

We FaceTimed Cole as he opened his mission call to Singapore(!).

So excited for him.

5/4

Sally wanted to sew Auggie some shorts.

We had no elastic and no appropriate fabric, so this is what happened.

They lasted about 2 minutes before the crotch ripped open.

He wasn't wearing a diaper and it was very funny.

5/5

And this is what happens every time August eats Lucky Charms.

Fake Birthdays and Real Birthdays

4/12

Nope, not his birthday.

And he doesn't even love cake.

But he does love candles and being sung to.

 Justin's birthday fell on a busy Tuesday.

He and the kids had school and then Drew had a baseball game.

We need a redo so he can have more of a party.

His magic cookie bars were probably his favorite part of the day.

My birthday was on a Saturday this year - the best birthday day.

But...the boys each had a game.

We all woke up early and tried to get in for breakfast at this place I've been wanting to try.

But we couldn't beat the crowds.

Settled for Jamba Juice and Red's Donuts before Drew had to be to his game.

I squoze in some shopping and went to a good-bye dinner for Cat, before she moved.

Low-key, but good day.

Little Free Libraries

Little Free Libraries are so cute.

I looked up the Pacific Grove locations and took Sally and her friend out to the ones I could find.

Above is #1.

We got distracted when we passed this old train stop:

And this Easter-egg decorated tree:

 (this one was my favorite, right by Lover's Point)

The girls ended up with some super random books.

Other than the romance novel I wouldn't let Sally take, they loved their new finds.
