Christina has been having trouble sleeping, so came out to the living room to sleep. Pinot didn’t mind.

I managed to drag myself to work today, and rewarded myself with family night at the pool and a nice dinner out at Olive Garden afterwards. I love family time, especially when no one is fighting, like tonight. I am determined to make the most of this summer.

Made it home from South Carolina and spent the day doing absolutely nothing. For some reason I am absolutely exhausted.

We went to the Bee City Zoo, where we were attacked by parakeets, spit on by llamas, and hand fed kangaroos, giraffes, and monkeys. Robin particularly loved petting the bunnies, especially the little black baby bunny that hopped around all over the place. So fun.

We have a cute AirBnB in South Carolina for the next few days, right on a little river. Looking forward to exploring the next few days.

The pool at the Y finally opened for the season, so I used my day off from work to go with the girls. Life calls for more pool days!

Father’s Day was a little bit of everything. More tie dye because I am crazy, food shopping, which included a checkout lane scramble to get ground beef for lunch, Harry Potter game that put Robin into the depths of despair, amazing french toast for dinner, and Robin Hood Men in Tights to top it off. If only the Yankees could have won too.

On a bit of a whim, we went to a Jumbo Shrimp game. They lost, but it was fun! The weather was surprisingly nice – not too hot at all, even with the sun in our faces for the first three innings. It was nice to have some family time.

It was a pretty boring day, but the kids had fun with my DSLR and even took some nice shots. I finished most of the machine sewing on my advent calendar. Next comes the ornaments and then the finishing. I may just get it done in time for this Christmas. I started it two Christmases ago, so this is a big deal.

Today was an emotional day of birthday pool parties. The first one had an abrupt end accompanied by tears – both mine and Robin’s – and the second involved actual swimming, delicious cheeseburgers, and chocolate cake. Happy birthday Sydney and Rosina!

Christina and I played hooky today. We had plans to go paddling, but it rained, so we went to see the movie, If, instead. It was a good movie, but I cried from the opening credits all the way to the very end. So emotional! I also figured out the twist way early, but it didn’t ruin it like it does in other movies. Then Christina got her hair cut and we went out for Colombian food. Such a good day, start to finish.

A day late, but we went out to celebrate Robin’s first back handspring ever! And we capped off the evening with a couple games of Sushi Go – and I both lost miserably and won a game. I also had an awesome lunch with friends from chorus – so all in all a pretty good day.

Things on my mind tonight: potential career moves, ice cream, cheerleading tryouts, tomorrow’s dance competition, knitting bunnies, baseball.

Robin had an Allstar Worlds sendoff performance tonight and all the girls left in tears as though they’d never see each other again. In two days.
