We had so much going on after Beau's party on Saturday . . . right now I'm choosing to make that a post for a later time. As for Sunday, we went to church and the club for brunch. Thank goodness that Chef Joey was back because we super missed his excellent omelets and waffles when he was out unexpectedly last Sunday. (In reality, this is the most selfish thing EVER that our omelets and waffles are so important. But they are yummy when he makes them. We are aware that there are many more things that are WAY MORE uncomfortable than omelets and waffles made by Chef Joey's stand-in. More on that another day.) The boys and Mommy ended up at Fire Wheel to get an iPhone screen replaced after several attempts at super shady places that were (thankfully) closed on Sundays. While the phone was being repaired, we checked out the fountain. A lot of pennies were thrown in, and a lot of wishes have been granted since then! The sun was making the boys a little squinty!
While we were tossing our pennies into the fountain, the boys noticed that a train would drive around the block and accept passengers/drop off passengers right where we were standing. Of course, a train ride was in order. $9 later, we all piled in a small train car and got ready to chugga chugga choo choo (super slowly) around the square. We got photo-bombed by a dad standing nearby. (He totally waited in line with his wife and three kids behind us, and just after he paid for them to all get in a train car next to us he decided it was too small for them all to get in. Kind of brilliant, right)? The Moms and kids had tons of fun on our super slow train ride.
One of the shops we drove by on our train ride was the Cookie Store. As soon as we got off the train, we walked over to get a cookie and a drink. Lincoln chose an iced blue cookie and a cheery Icee, and Beau chose an iced cookie on a stick and a lemonade slushee . . . two happy boys for sure!!!!
We had Beau's chosen birthday dinner at Shady's on Sunday evening, and it was delicious as always. The weekend was super busy and not at all like it was planned, but we all got to bed super tired. Everyone had to wake a bit earlier than normal, so Mommy took the boys for donut holes before school on Monday morning. Tired but excited smiles in the parking lot!
Beau doesn't nap at home, but he sometimes falls asleep at school with the lights out and classical music surrounding him. Mommy found this mess at an early (ending naptime) pick up. Apparently only his head was cold?!?!
Monday afternoon was glorious weather, and we played outside for a while. Silly swing face by Lincoln!
We had our first Spring Ninjas soccer practice on Monday evening, and the boys were happy to get the team back together. They are such fun friends, and everyone got in the grove together super fast.
Beau and Case (little brothers) played football and soccer until Beau found something in his shoe that needed investigating. He's a smiley guy!
Our week has been super busy, and we are doing our best take care of everyone. More on the way for our Open House and weekend fun.
