Dinner w. Friends, Sleep Over, Country Concert & Birthday Party Fun!

Weekdays:

  • Monday - I worked from home along with Clint since we had an early sports night.  I had an exhausting week at work because we hired a new leader for the teams I support and many adult men turned into children over the news.  At least I have a great team and we could laugh about it!  Connor had baseball at 5p and it is so cute watching them learn the game and improve game to game.
  • Tuesday - Another day of running the daycare, I mean leading human capital! HA. Thankfully we had no evening plans so we enjoyed dinner together and then I had a lovely video catch up with my former co-worker & now friend Row.
  • Wednesday -  My team and I volunteered to make sandwiches for a charity over the lunch hour which was a great break in the midst of our nutty week.  Clint also went into the office today but was home in time to relieve Kristy.  Connor then had baseball at 6p which I was running late for so Clint and Connor headed for the field to be on time and then I grabbed Maci and we met up.  Connor had one really great hit right down the first base line giving him a double.
  • Thursday - A long day at the office followed by an evening of drinking for all of us from human capital - HA!  Clint and I did our boozing with the Harty Party for a lovely evening of bags, such a nice cooler summer night!
Friday : 
  • We both worked from home and the kids were great for us today!  
  • We headed to our pal Amber & Adam's house at 6p.  The Harty's were joining us too!  We had pizza dinner, fruit and dessert from Tena afterward!  The Markovich new home is gorgeous!!!  They have an indoor sport court that the kids really enjoyed and the adults loved sitting in the 4 season porch catching up over beverages.  
  • We called it a little after 9p but the girls were having such a blast (Maci and Avery - going into 5th grade- are the only girls as Avery also has a brother, so does Maci with Connor and then the Harty 4 boys!)  So Avery came home with us for a sleep over!  The girls were so easy but sounds like they stayed up until 2a so we are going to have tired little ones.
Saturday :
  • Clint started the day with a 8a massage which he says he will never do one that early again, we have become a big time sleep in family!
  • After he got home, we napped for a bit until we headed to the Harty's at 12p for Nash's 5th birthday.  The weather was quite a bit cooler only in the low 70s so some kids swam but most hung out and enjoyed pizza.
  • We left home to get some stuff done around the house before getting ready for the night.
  • Our sitter came at 5p and we were off to eat at Rock Elm and then to Corcoran Country Daze - country concert.
  • My sister and brother in law were going to come at one time this weekend but since they couldn't, we had the Harty's use the tickets!
  • We had such a blast listening to live music, sipping beverages and enjoying the chillier weather!
  • Half way through the night, I looked to my right and there was Kristi (Lucy from soccer's mom)!  We ended up hanging with the Stengel's (Kristi & Kevin) the rest of the night along with the Harty's.  
  • We headed out as the headliner was wrapping up and all were ready for some rest and water :)
Great Crew!

Baby Sitter Fun!
Maci's Pal Avery taught her how to use this bun device
And she loves her blue light glasses - so big!
Connor wanted in on the fun too!
Still in his swimming gear from earlier in the day HA
Sunday : 
  • Big time sleep in at the Mondell's!  We didn't really get up and moving until about 945a today!
  • I had to wake Connor up so he would eat and get dressed in time for his buddy Chuck's 7th birthday at SkyZone come 11a.
  • Clint ran Connor to the party then ran some errands and washed Rosie.
  • Clint ran back to pick up Connor and ran more errands as I did laundry, groceries etc.
  • It was such a gorgeous day only reaching a high of 80 but most of the day was LOVELY in the 70s and with a breeze.  We all agreed to keep the kids kicked outside from about 1p onward.  They painted rocks, played hide and seek and other games while we got stuff done around the house.
  • Clint is now finishing up the grass for the weekend, about to pick up dinner for us while I finish this blog, laundry and painting my nails.
  • After dinner we are trying out our new custom cut fire ring from Etsy - the neighbors are going to come over too for some s'mores!!  Summer fun!
We are ready for another week right around the bend and our final week with the awesome nanny Kristy!! She heads to Europe for a trip and our kids have a week of Gymnastics camp before Grandma Janet comes for the last week before school!!!!  Wahooo!!!  Such a fun way to wrap summer every year!

We hope you are having a wonderful August!
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
