Ed Sheeran

Ava Kate finally cashed in on her birthday present! 

The four of us road tripped to Pittsburgh for the Ed Sheeran concert. 

We had a fun 24 hours and the concert was amazing!

Addy did wonderful job at her first concert, we were worried. 

About 3/4 through the concert, she looked at me and said 

"I miss Woz" 

Ha! 

Lunch with My Girls!

A work from home allowed me a lunch with my sweets at school! 

It seriously is one of the most amazing things I do. I didn't tell them I was going to try so they were both super surprised and absolutely thrilled to see me! 

I didn't know if Ava was to cool for me but I was safe! But she wouldn't hold my hand when I walked her to recess. I'll take what I can get. 

Also, I have to introduce Maisie. God, I love this kid and her little brother, Duncan. 

Maisie lives in our neighborhood and her and Addy have been super close over the last year. 

Well, this year they are in the same class and doing cheer together. 

After every cheer practice, she comes over and says "Can I come to Addy's house?" And I usually say yes. Because all she talks about is dinosaurs and asks for strawberry milk for dinner. 

She is so polite and I adore her. 

My favorite first graders

Then there are these 4. I'm so grateful Ava has made such wonderful friends with this family! 

Plus, the Planet Box representation is strong. 

Rainy Soccer

We found out the hard way that both of the girls coaches will not cancel a soccer game for rain. 

We were soaked and freezing but both girls kept smiles on their faces and claimed it was so fun! 

Genoa Homecoming!

We had beautiful weather for Genoa's Homecoming! 

Genoa played Lake which means we got to see The Feather's! 

The girls played with their friends and Addy scored a new pair of pom poms

The icing on the cake is our babysitter, Grace, was crowned Homecoming Queen! 

Happy Birthday, Mama Katie!!

An impromptu dinner for Katie's birthday led to a night of margarita's, laugh's, and lipstick! 

It was such a fun night! 

So glad we could celebrate with our friend!

Ava's Playing Volleyball!

When the form came home for volleyball, Ava wasn't too thrilled to play. 

Ava likes soccer. Ava is very good at soccer. But Ava doesn't want to do anything other than soccer. 

It took some convincing but she agreed. 

Guess what? She loves it! And she's good!

It's a short season so she is actually playing her last game this weekend. 

Lia's Wedding Weekend - Part 2

After our day of fun, we cleaned up and got ready for the wedding. 

We didn't realize the weather was going to be so much cooler so our clothing wasn't necessarily warm. Addy was so excited about her new dress! 

Thank goodness I grabbed her a jacket before we left! Ha!

The wedding and reception was absolutely perfect. Everything was so quaint. 

It was a very small wedding with little Gia as the flower girl. 

We had drinks and light snacks immediately following the ceremony. After we had dinner and then down to another building for the reception. The girls NEVER left the dance floor until we forced them to leave at 11:00.

The girls with Lia! 

We went back to our house and passed out. 

Everyone slept so sound until I had to force them all out of bed. 

Such a great weekend away! 

Congratulations Lia and Tyler! 

Thanks for letting us share your special day!
