What’s New?
What a day, I'll tell you. Today, I spent the morning at the dentist, and the rest of the day doing laundry. We have been so crazy busy lately, which I am not complaining about. I just feel like I haven't done laundry in a month!! 😲
After Mariah's graduation, we came home to celebrate a few birthdays. I think August must have some kind of magical spirits, because both of the best dads I know were born in that month. The day we got home from the airport, we went straight to mom and dad's for a barbeque celebration for dad's birthday. The next day we left for some much needed camping. J's birthday was during the camping week, so my sister brought BK out to the campsite for his birthday.
AND she was able to bring food out for dinner because we stayed at the state park, which is only 12 WHOLE MINUTES from mom and dad's house. It worked out pretty dang well. A few perks…We were able to go home to shower. I was still able to go home to water and take care of our kitties every few days. If we forgot something, such as our pillows (yes, we somehow managed to forget pillows), we could just drive to the house. Also, driving home at the end of the trip was extremely quick, so we could just chuck our stuff in the cars and drive off.
The pups seemed to enjoy it too!
Dakota did her usual of getting hella dirty. And Liesl was very concerned for most of the trip, but managed to survive her first official camping week!
Another fun family thaaang…Jesse and Abby came over yesterday to surprise J for his birthday. They brought dinner, and cooked, which was super nice!
Here is something interesting…I never knew that this would be a spot that bees would choose for a hive location. This is a door jam in one of our cars, right by the driver's seat. It was inactive, but still quite a surprise when I opened up the door.
And a few more side thoughts for the week…
If you like scary movies…go see The Night House. It is probably one of the best scary movies we have seen in a LOOOOONG while. Just do it! Go see it!
For any of my keto people out there, I feel like I am getting bored of my foods. I don't eat much meat, so sometimes meals are a little tough if I don't want to constantly eat eggs. If you have any good recipes to send my way, please do so!
