Our random happenings

So our life has been crazy busy as of late. We have done a lot of fun things and we have been just really enjoying being together. Here is a hodge podge of what we have been doing.

Sundays are fun around here. Most of the time. One Sunday we had everyone out to our place for dinner. Didn't go as well as we had planned. My mom was out of town and stopped in to say hi and visit when she got back. We took all the kids and grandma for a ride in the Polaris. Sunday Funday!

We love to do the Library summer reading programs. When they read for so many minutes or so many books they earn prizes. One of those prizes was a trip to Mongos. A different version of Mongolian BBQ. We weren't quite sure our kids would eat it. They actually really liked it. Notice anything different or mission? Yep! That's right, Owen's other shoe. I swear we always leave our house with him missing a shoe or just grabbing one. So he ate dinner that night with just one sandal. Kid cracks me up.

So my friend Jeralyn told me about this Mother/Son date Knight at Chick- fil- A. So I told her yes and I took the three older boys because it was a mother/son date night. They actually liked it. Not so much the food but getting out and having fun. To end the night they took us on a limo ride and the boys thought that was pretty cool.

Next we went to Slide the City. It came to Boise. We saw it advertised on Facebook and thought the kids would really enjoy it. The day started out well and ended well but the in between? Oh man it was a long, hot day. When the Slide was setting the Slip n' Slide up the water hoses broke so the big problem? How do you get water for the slide? So the slide was dry. It was slow but we made it and we probably won't do it again. Now we can say we did it.
When we got home we saw a surprise visitor in our driveway. Uncle Justin had surprised us all with a visit to town. We love it when he comes to town! The boys jumped out of the car and ran in to see him. It was a good weekend.
