Our summer thus far….
This summer has been lots of fun. We have done so much too. First we went to Utah for my scans. Everything turned out great. I still don’t know what is going on with that. We had fun though. Ricky really loved it. I didn’t realize it had been a year since he was there.
I came home to have breakfast the next morning with my friends, Andrea and Amber, at IHOP. It is a tradition that we started awhile ago. But they didn’t tell me they were inviting more friends!! It was a total surprise. I am glad I showered that morning and looked somewhat decent. Usually I am the only one who showers (not that they look bad or anything:0) and they end up saying something about it to me on how I get ready so early. When I got up I contemplated getting all ready too. All I can say is that I am glad I listened to myself!!!
Then as Randy posted,it was my 30th birthday. It couldn’t have been more fun and special. Randy totally surprised me with the video. I forgot some of the things I went through. I even forgot he taped me when I was here in Texas. All I have to say is “Thank you Honey” I married the best guy ever. Randy and the boys also got me a new bike with a seat for Cameron. I was so excited to actually go on a bike ride with the whole family. I haven’t been on a bike in over 13 years!!! YIKES!!! I have to say though, I did pretty good. A little wobbly, but stable enough to ride with Cameron!!
Then it just got better than that…. Randy planned a dinner and game night with all my friends. The adults went to dinner at TGIFriday’s, one of my favorite restaurants, and then we went to my friends house, the Alva’s to have game night ad goodies. It was so so much fun. I loved spending time with my friends. I love who came. We played card games, rock band, and ate tons and tons of junk, and chit chatted!! It couldn’t have been better!!! A BIG THANK YOU to my friends that came. I had a blast.
I have also been at the pool the rest of the time. Almost everyday too!!! The boy’s and I absolutely love it. Cameron last year was not too fond of the pool. He just wanted to walk around and sit on the side of the pool. This year it is totally fun. He loves the water!! He is so much fun. He loves us to bounce him up and dwon in the water. Let me tell you, by the end of the summer my thighs better be skinny!!!
Ricky is a fish now. He never gets out unless it is to eat of course. Then with my amazing Michael, he taught himself how to swim. He is so dang good too. He first wanted him arms floats but then with the help of his friends he stopped that. He wouldn’t let me help teach him how to. He wanted to do it himself. And he did! He likes me to throw him in and then he swims underwater to the side. Jut like they teach then in swim lessons!!! I am do proud of him. I remember Ricky teaching himself too. This pool of ours must have the touch!
So far all we really have done this summer is swim, swim, and swim!!!
