Happy Friday! I'm excited for this weekend. Tomorrow is DH's birthday and Sunday is our anniversary. We are going to a city a few hours away tomorrow and staying over night. We plan on going to Ikea and probably a trampoline park. Should be a fun weekend!

Soooo glad it is Friday. Even with a day off in the middle of the week, this has been one long week. Good news is the information I worked so hard to put together for our VP went over swimmingly and he said it was exactly what he wanted. Giving myself a little pat on the back here b/c this guy never says anything is exactly what he wanted. He always has changes or asks for something completely different. So this his statement was a huge compliment.

It seems like every Friday it rains here but thank jeebus it stopped just in time for camp to go swimming so I think they're fine. You don't know about the weather schedule until you have to pay attention for activities, so weird how it's been. This morning it was raining pretty darn heavy, I was worried but now the sun is out & it's hot so he should be enjoying himself.

I'm having day SO took my car since it's being so temperamental and we haven't gotten a new one yet. He left his car here but it now has a flat tire I'm so over cars! Luckily my SIL is coming over with my little niece and nephew for company later.

I woke up to a nice summer thunderstorm this morning, which was really nice because it's been hot and sunny for seemingly forever here. I mean, I know that's not something to complain about, but every once in a while I like just a nice, rainy day to be lazy. So it might storm again later, which would actually be lovely since I have a looooong list of things I wanted to get done around the house today. I didn't get through much of it this morning. DS has been a slow mover - constantly stopping to look at toys, point things out to me, etc. Its actually really endearing, just a little less so when you have shit to get done.

AAA put the spare on SOs car. Still so annoying. I'm currently researching our options as a new vehicle has to happen ASAP.
DS is playing with our neighbor for an hour while I clean before my SIL arrives. It's on my DSs side and I'm always so grateful that we're still so close despite his dad passing.

Another successful swimming week for DS. Thank goodness. He didn't forget anything & all was well according to him. I'm so glad. When I got him though he was asking me where a certain picture he drew was & I'm standing there like, uhhh idk I don't work here. Lol & he was sad about it. We even went as far as the car to get unpacked & he was still sad about it so I asked him where he had it last. Since he said the cafeteria, we walked back since they have it open, it's usually one of the gathering places at the end of the day so we looked around. He pointed to a table he had it last & it wasn't there. He said oh maybe it's in the trash. ok? thankfully they only have one trashcan & lo & behold, his picture was right on top! thank goodness. He was calling it his circus picture & on the back he wrote "I love you mom and dad." My heart. <3 I did notice though that he spelled love wrong & some 'd's were backwards. What a few weeks out of school will do to you. So now I gotta find a way to get him to do some schoolwork without him yelling at me because he's always writing that stuff & it was pretty surprising to see him spelling things wrong & letters backwards.

I'm writing my brother back & mentioning in a 'lol' type of way that they're always welcome here & that they haven't been out here since our wedding. Eff it. Email is usually our primary method of communication so I'm doing it. Also letting him now our niece isn't probably going to get her gift in time. So I'm taking the opportunity to throw that out there.

Speaking of swimming...
Yesterday DD was swimming at MIL's when I got there she told me that she jumped in (with her floatie on) and went underwater. But going underwater is a huge deal for her. She is super afraid of getting her face wet, so the fact that she let her whole head go underwater just astounds me. I am so proud of her! Hopefully that put an end to the fear of water in her face.

When DS goes with his camp, I'm being a worry wart & sending him with his life jacket because no one is watching him the way I am. He told me last week that some kids were questioning him about it like why do you have that & his response was "to be safe!" I was so proud. & I'm glad I do send him with it because there's another camp that goes with his friend there & apparently he always tries to get him to come to the deep area so just in case he finds his way there, he's protected. He can't swim just yet & I'm salty that the college closed their pool down for renovations until next year, he was getting really good. He was swimming pretty much with only a pool noodle but now that he hasn't for a while, I'm sure he's lost some skills.

Does she know how to swim? Sort of. She can swim with her "learn to swim" floatie or the arm swimmies and probably by the end or summer she'll be ready to swim without them. But she has never taken formal swimming lessons.
