The summer is flying by and it is pretty much breaking my heart. This past week-ish was crazy-good and crazy-full and I have decided to stay at home all.week.long. to recover. You now how that goes, don’t you?
-Jerbear and I took Moses to Card Kingdom in Seattle for his 8th birthday gift. It was Magic. Seriously so. much. fun.{this may be because we are super into gaming}
-I spent Sunday doing writing sprints for 1 2 3 4 hours. This is where I meet up with my writing girls and we write hard for 45 minutes and then take 15 minutes to breathe. Very fun!
-Then I cleaned like a lunatic because my dear friend Pamela {friends since 8th grade, people!}was flying in from San Francisco on Monday for 7 days! So exciting, but it also meant, you know, that I needed to clean the bathroom.
-We drank coffee till noon then switched to wine at about 6 everyday. I’m not sure what we did in between.
-Well, I guess we sometimes drank beer in between.
-And then Wednesday, 8/8 was Moses’ officially 8th {golden!} birthday! Pamela got him the Pokemon card.
-Doesn’t get much better than that!
-And here is where Maisey took a picture before she threw up everywhere, like, 5 minutes later.
-And then it went from 1 who threw up to 2 3 4 who threw up daily for the next four days. Fun!
-So Jerbear and I decided to celebrate our anniversary {11!}at home to avoid making Pamela deal with vomit.
-I was given these lovely flowers and super good thai takeout.
-We are really fancy
-Then Pamela and I took the kids to my parents where they celebrated Grandpa’s birthday{!},played, threw-up {more.}, went to a music festival and did a 75 foot slip-n-slide!
-Lucky kids, right?
-Pamela and I exchanged the mini-van for my Mom’s Prias and headed to Portland to play with my sister who just moved down to the best west coast city. {yes, I am a *bit* jealous!}
-We ate amazing raw food, went to Powell’s, and had tacos.
-We went to stores with weird stuff for sale:
-We also got sister tattoo’s!
-Some people thought they were a joke but we think they are awesome.amazing.beautful.true.perfect.us. and a treasure for always.
-After that Pamela and I hopped into the car, grabbed Jerbear, and headed to Julie’s 30th Birthday party. But somehow I have no pictures:(
-Yesterday Pamela and I went through 1 2 3 4 5 dressers of clothing and did all the laundry and sorted out everything that was super stained and gross, too small or redundant and pared the kids clothes wayyyyy down. We even bagged 1 2 3 4 bags for the Goodwill!
-She’s a good friend, right?
-I was very sad to say good-bye, but I am sure she will be okay because a week of vomit isn’t as cool as, you know, a week with-OUT vomit. Generally speaking, of course.
-And I read the book Penelope by Rebecca Harrington.
-It’s about a freshman girl, Penelope, at Harvard and it is the funniest book I have ever read. It is seriously funny people.
