It's all fun and games until someone's shoe breaks

Last Thursday night a group of girls from church got together for ice cream. It was fun because #1, who doesn't love ice cream on a hot summer night?! and #2 these are not girls I get to hang out with all of the time. It's great getting together with people I don't always see or get a chance to talk to on Sunday or Wednesday. Sometimes with kids we're all just running in different directions after church...usually I'm in a rush to get out the door because my kids are STARVING!

Bonnie, Tamra, Julie

Melissa, Michelle, Ashleigh, Jill

me, Jaime, Lindsay

We had lots of laughs and told some funny stories...until poor Ashleigh got too excited in her story telling and broke her shoe. Sadly, (or luckily for her husband) we talked too long for any stores to be opened after we finished eating ice cream so she couldn't go get new sandals.

Friday was play date at Jaime's house and I didn't get any pictures. Jaime made delicious homemade pimento cheese sandwiches and it was a fun and fairly uneventful time...that is until the two little boys came down with a rather mischievous look on their faces. I won't go into details, but for your own future reference if your child sucks on a tube of toothpaste, as long as it's children's (like sponge bob for example) they should be fine.

Saturday Brody and I took the kids up to the elementary school to play basketball and run around some. I even shot a few hoops myself and am now paying the price. I can barely lift my arms to wash my hair. sheesh. The kids were so hungry after about 20 minutes of playing so we ran to Costco because we were out of milk/fruit. We just decided to eat lunch there. Everyone scarfed down hot dogs except for Scarlett who made me take her dog out of the bun because the bun had sesame seeds on it and according to her only birds eat seeds. That girl! Later that night we went over to my parents to swim and relax some. It was a nice time and I think we wore the kids out swimming. Overall, it was a great day!
