Wieners All Around

If you opened this post looking for something other than a Couples Baby-Q Shower, then you're a real pervert.

Come on man.

Really?

So disappointing.

This is a family blog.

And our little family loves to have parties with themes... this one just so happened to focus on the birth of a baby boy... hence, wieners all around. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Oh Christmas Tree

Our friends asked us where we bought our Christmas tree at last year.

We told them in the Safeway parking lot.

They laughed. 

That most assuredly will never happen again.

Bidders Are Winners

Jack had an auction at school today.

Brought in some old stuff from his room to donate.

He was so stoked to spend his tickets on things he wanted.

He didn't have as many tickets as some of his other classmates had, mainly because he didn't keep track of them. Organization is not his best quality.

He even bought some of the stuff he had actually donated.

I asked him what in the world was he doing buying something that he already owned and decided to donate in the first place.

"I bought it so I could make sure my friend could have it. He didn't earn a lot of tickets and he's my friend. I just wanted to make him happy."

It was the best auction I've ever been to in my life. Being an awesome freaking human is his best quality.

No Clue Where We Were

There's water all around this place. Ocean water. Lake water. Creeks. I'm sure there are rivers. So much water. And most of the time I have no clue where we are. I just go along for the ride, feeling geographically dumb because I could actually look at a map. (But ain't nobody got time for that.)

Last Saturday was no exception. No clue.

Jack's soccer game took us out an hour or so away from home. Took a bridge that I know we've been on a bunch of times before on our adventures. But I can't tell you the name of it.

But the end result was somewhere new. With new beaches. New water. New things to explore. And of course new fun memories and a crap ton of pictures.

Who knows where we will end up next Saturday? 

Routine

Man. I've been out of it.

My routine is off.

I somehow am forgetting to wash my face every morning. (Ugh. My skin.)

I somehow am forgetting to take my meds in the morning. (Ugh. My body and brain.)

I somehow am forgetting my babes ballet, swim,  heck even preschool classes. (Ugh. My poor babes.)

I somehow have not been able to get back into a good schedule of working out. (Ugh. My body.)

Man. I need routine. Like bad.

But, I'll focus on the positive.

Without routine, there are some better things I've been able to do. Focus on others, not myself. Show kindness, be a good example for my babes to love everyone, no matter their struggles or status in life. Check in on my friends and family, offer support and encouragement. Take meals over, hold sweet babies, walk dogs, laugh with, cry with, listen to, and love.

So... whatever. Screw my routine. Who needs good skin and a fit body? It will all work out, with or without a routine.
