Fifth week of summer

Tuesday or Wednesday I think we went to the library.

Thursday. The biggest thing this week was Makinley's birthday.
We spent it at the lake with our good friends the Johnsons. They are too cute. We just love spending time with them. Makinley got 4 Polly Pocket sets, 2 shirts, a scooter, an LPS, 2 baby doll twins with brown eyes like her, $25 from Grandma and Grandpa Creswell, and a $30 gift card for Target from Grandma and Papa Sanchez! Thank you everyone for showing Makinley that you love her. She was so excited about her money...she was saving her points to get a baby doll set (stroller, high chair, swing) but since she got so much money for her birthday she was able to purchase it herself! Oh she was SOOOOOOOOO excited to do this. I can't tell you how excited she was!

Friday was fun chore day. I told the kids Thursday night, 'We're going to have so much fun tomorrow! It's Fun Friday!' They got really excited until I told them what Fun Friday was. It was cleaning the entire house together. Brandon said, 'I miss all the fun!' The kids were really helpful, though. We really did have a good time helping each other clean the entire house. And as their reward...I gave them each 250 points. They loved that!

Saturday the boys and I went grocery shopping while Brandon and the girls used his Father's Day gift card at Borders and Jamba Juice. For Father's Day we gave Brandon gifts he could use with his kids. The girls gave him a Borders card and Jamba Juice gift card. They spent the day together. And Saturday night he spent with the boys at a Reno Aces Baseball game. They had a lot of fun. The girls and I watched a movie and did our nails. We didn't get to bed till the boys came home about 11:00pm. We are really going to be tired tomorrow!
