A week

Monday...had a playdate at my friend Christy's house with my 2 kids and her 5 girls...whew! So fun to catch up, my kids said that she is soooo nice and her girls said that Sierra is their best friend. :)

Tuesday was the best pool day EVER! I just love the Patterson's, we grew up together, have known them since I was little. They are so kind and generous. They hosted pool day and I think almost every mom from the ward was there with her littles.

Wednesday I registered for school, just 1 class. I'm waitlisted for Psych 101. Just hoping and praying that I get in. I was going to take 2 classes but everything was waitlisted. I was freaking out anyway about this new endeavor. Feel so much better and calmer with the decision to just take one and ease my way back into school. After registering I took the kids down to the pool and we swam together the 3 of us and had SO MUCH FUN!

Thursday I took my kids to the beach along with Sierra's friend, Karlie. Just me and 3 kids. Not like me at all. I usually want someone to go with me, have someone to talk to. What a wonderful day! It was sunny and warm and beautiful. There was a dead seal up on the beach that was rolling in and out of the waves. Two surfers with gloves and shovels pulled him up on the sand and buried him. So nice cause it was kind of gross to look at however, beware when you go start digging giant holes in the sand for your kids. :0 I read my book while watching children. I played catch with Ashton with a football. I played smashball with Ashton. I buried my legs with Ashton. I even got in the water, it was pretty cold. We went to Oxnard and stayed until 4:15. The kids and I loved every minute!!!

Friday Briana came up for the weekend and spent the day at our house with Sophi too. A great day and then to top it off, Jake and I went to the temple for Ward temple night. I love the temple.

Saturday we did some cleaning in the morning. Went on a walk as a family. Me and the kids went swimming again together. Watched RIO together. Went to Chili's with Grandma and Grandpa for dinner. Then Grammy watched the kids and Jake and I went and saw a play, The Music Man. Frank and Troy Norton were both in it from our ward. Fun to see them on stage. :)
