It was a busy week with a hectic schedule. My work team headed up north Monday-Wednesday to tour 4 of the camps. It was nice to see the camps, but it was hard for me to be away. Everyone knows I love a good solid routine, and interrupting everything isn’t my favorite. Luckily, I was actually able to come home on Tuesday night instead, which I was grateful for. I missed out on soccer but Nate said both boys were awesome. Augustus scored a goal! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wednesday night was the Survivor finale. For MANY years, my mom has hosted a Survivor pool- you put in $5, choose 3 of the players and then if you pick one of the winners, you get the pool (or a portion of it, depending on how many people have also chosen the winner). This season, Xander joined in the fun. He pretty much talked through every episode, but he was excited, and for the finale, he had 2 of his 3 picks left. First he requested a “survivor themed snack” and then when he won, he had a full blown “Miss America” moment, clutching his heart and saying, “I can’t believe I won!” He ended up winning $30!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For my 40th birthday, I wanted to do 4 special things and the next one was glamping! Glamping is really just fancy camping- you still have to pee outside. I only took one photo (the other 2 are from the website to show where we were). It was a really nice night- we hung out in Taylor’s Falls, finding some cool little shops and a brewery. We had dinner and then headed to the winery. We stopped in the bottle shop for firewood and wine, and ended up staying and hanging out with the owners who were keeping my glass full of free wine. We had a campfire and relaxed. The tent was cute and looked like instagram exploded. We were a little chilly when we woke up the next morning, but it was very comfortable. I would definitely do it again! I highly recommend it too- https:\/\/www.getintents.com\/glamping-wild-mountian<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was so nice to have a night away and of course, the boys had a great time with Grandma Debbie who came to stay with them. It was also nice to get home to our boys. We got ice cream and snuggled our sweet boys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Saturday, we did some yard work, which consisted of Nate digging holes that 2 bulldogs immediately would sit in. Bulldogs taking the shovel, little boys who alternated between wanting to help and whining. I’d call it a success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later in the day, Sean and Rachel hosted a ping pong tournament. Xander was VERY into it and quite crabby he couldn’t join in the actual tournament. It was fun to watch him play though, and we basically had to drag him home. We will definitely have to play ping pong again soon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grandma Debbie was in Houston this weekend, so the boys were stuck with their boring old parents. We went to a park and had a picnic, played on the playground and in the splash pad. It was a very fun day. When we got home, our neighbor was having a lemonade stand, so we headed over to get some drinks and hang out. I am so excited for a summer of fun ahead!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today was an absolutely perfect day. It was the annual neighborhood bags tournament. It was a little rainy this morning, but it stopped and we all headed to Sean’s for a day of fun. Bloody Mary bar (I love a drink that includes a pile of snacks!), donuts, piles of cheesy bread, root beer floats, champagne, and more. Nate and Eric took home the championship and so for the next year, the trophy will live in our yard (a huge honor). The kids played all day. Between all of the parents, we were all keeping an eye on the kids, but they had a lot of freedom throughout the day. I think they loved it. We ended the day with pizza for all, kids in the sprinkler and everyone tired. After a quick bath and rest time, our boys went to bed at 6:45 and didn’t even make a peep. It was a gorgeous, fabulous day and we live in the best neighborhood of all time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a crazy week and I am exhausted, but also so grateful for our friends and family and all of the fun stuff we constantly do. Summer is going to be the BEST!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
