Today the kids had yet another day off from school so we enjoyed minature golf and then yummy treats at CFA. We tried to get soft serve at McDonalds, but their machines were broken :( Much to our delight, Mr. Justin was working at CFA and treated the kids to free ice cream! It was a beautiful day and we soaked up some fun in the sun!
Savannah and I enjoyed a nice quiet weekend together while the boys were away. Friday kicked off the weekend with Savannah going to Cakeable and then we enjoyed dinner out at Chick fil A. We would have gone out for dessert too, but she brought home this amazing, still warm, strawberry buckle cake so we stopped for vanilla ice cream to serve with that instead.
We went out for ice cream at Marble Slab on Saturday to celebrate her AMAZING SAT scores (first picture above is of her opening the score report)!!! Although she missed a question in the math section and didn't get a perfect score (her first goal), the overall score was well above her personal goal so that is something to celebrate!! Actually, it's so good there is a debate if she even needs to take it again!
We enjoyed time watching some girl movies, shopping, of course a little Shipting, and lots of yummy treats. It's so fun to just be with my girl!!
Moms are given very few details . . . but I know these two boys had a wonderful time this weekend together in the mountains on the preteen blessing retreat with church. I know that it snowed, that they were exhausted from hiking and carrying stones, that the fire alarm went off in the middle of the night, and that it was a very special weekend spent together. Here are a few pictures to enjoy!
I was so excited that this little guy gave up his morning "couch time" and electronics for a short time to go for an early morning workout with me. He biked while I got my miles in on foot! It was a nice change to have a partner with me. :)
We found out this week that Brusters was doing $1 wafflecones today if you wear your jammies . . so all week the kids couldn't wait to get treats after dinner. After Dave and Savannah took charge and cooked up burgers on the grill we headed to Matthews and enjoyed the long overdue Brusters treats!
