No I guess you can't plan for the unexpected but I like my day to have a little more wiggle room in it than some people who like to schedule everything. We have a whole lot of nothing planned all the time and luckily that works for us. Today I decided we should go out and water the garden before Lincoln went down for his afternoon. That lead to us picking our first zucchini of the season (yes it's late, we didn't plant until July 2nd so we are getting a late start in the garden game). Dylan was a good helper and watered all the flowers by the front door and then we decided to water the back lawn which led to an impromptu run through the sprinklers with our clothes on. and yes, all of us ran through them. Lincoln actually wasn't too scared and enjoyed getting a little wet and the dog even had fun trying to eat the water. Once we were nice and soaked and grassy the boys had a quick bath which also led to me cleaning and rearranging the master bath while they squirted each other. I got Lincoln out and Dylan was ready too and decided to try to climb around the tub and he slipped and hit his head and scratched his arm on the faucet. Everyone is ok and resting or sleeping now which is nice for mommy to get some things done around this crazy place. We have been so busy with vacations, hanging out with the family, Shane has been getting the house prepped for painting (hopefully finished before the last week of August so we can sit back and enjoy our 3rd anniversary) and Danielle just went back to her moms for a few weeks. Ah summer. One month left of this craziness and then we get back to the school schedule which is sounding a little enticing yet sad at the same time.
Well beyond five years that is. February 22 marks our first date and somehow Shane even remembered that. Since I feel like a crumb-bum of a wife lately I set up a special little thing to show him how much these last five years have actually meant to me. (I get that it isn't our wedding anniversary but any day can be special so I wanted to make this special too) I wrote him a little love letter and put out five things that are meaningful in our relationship together, quite the mishmash if you ask me, but it works. In no particular order: 1. Motley Crue - We we to our first concert together over the summer to see Shane's favorite band and I got to get my 80's on while he got to relive the glory days. 2. The Spiderwick Chronicles - We went to see this movie with our nephews for our first official date. I think it's sweet that now the boys watch it all the time. 3. Coffee - We have shared many conversations, hours, and events all while drinking coffee. We both love it ...
Ohhh, such a fun day but I'm sorry Dylan hit his head. I hope he's ok. Please give him a little kiss on his forehead for me.
