Last Saturday, I ran into an old friend at a local market and he happens live right next town over. Next thing I know we’re playing in his pool. 😉

We’re going out on a double date and our overnight guests from NY are babysitting our kids tonight. It sounds really bad that we’re leaving our own guests with our kids… I guess that’s kind of friends we are! Haha, but you still love us anyway, right?

Now we get photobombed by kids every time we try to take a picture!

Shane tried to hide in the trunk and we almost took him with us! Can you imagine! Too funny.

breakfast delivery

We have a very special guests staying with us and we’re so thrilled to have them for the weekend!

Chloe’s been talking about selling lemonade in our street today…but I didn’t think she’ll have a good turn out…so I suggested we wrap up our lemon poppyseed muffins instead and share them with our neighbors. One of our neighbors kids babysit our kids and Chloe and Shane absolutely LOVE them. 🙂

Kids wrote each of their names and decorated the boxes.
