Highlights of Our Week So Far

Our lives have felt nonstop since last Saturday.  It seems like there's always something on the calendar. Better busy than bored, right??  Haha!  We finally caught a bit of a breather today, thus the opportunity for a blog post.  Here are some highlights from the last few days...

Monday morning kicked off with play group for the boys while I ran errands.  While I was there, they made these adorable flowers for me...
...I tell Mickey not to bother with flowers for me, but I'll take flowers like these from my boys ANY day.  So SWEET!

We followed up play group with a visit to All About Achieving for a reading seminar for parents of pre-schoolers.  They had some lego fun for the kids during the presentation...cool stuff.  I left feeling very encouraged that the boys are right on track for Reading success.  Made me feel good.  That place is cool!   I will definitely be pouncing on any future opportunities there.  

We missed Mickey for lunch but he left cute smiley faces for the boys to come home to...


...it made their day.  So sweet!

Tuesday morning kicked off with story time.  We had a great turnout and the featured stories were...


...as you can see, it was a Denise Fleming kind of day.  The boys LOVE that Alphabet Under Construction book.  

We followed up story time with a few quick errands before a trip to the beach...


 

...it has been ABSOLUTELY gorgeous there lately.  I could go every day.

When they refused to nap, we loaded up the stroller...


...works every time.  I got in 7 easy miles, more sunshine and fresh air, and they got a great nap.  Win-win.  

Wednesday we kicked off our morning with some fresh juice...


...and spent the morning close to home taking care of our usual produce Annie's Organic Produce day duties...


...the boys are actually starting to become helpful with the whole process which is nice.  Once everything was organized, we spent the rest of our morning playing outside...


...as long as they have trucks, they're happy.  Colton needed his necklace yesterday too :-)  

Mason must have got the accessory memo eventually too because he rocked his raccoon hat for quite a while inside... 


...too cute!

Wednesday's fun really began that night when we got to get all dolled up for a night out compliments of Mickey's employer...


...it was fun to get all dressed up, eat fancy food kid-free, hear Jimbo Fisher, the coach at FSU speak, and then dance a bit on the dance floor.  

Today we've been taking it easy.  We played outside, potty breaks included, lol...


...made a quick trip to Publix, played outside some more, took some silly selfies...



...and took a little tour of the neighborhood via tricycle...


...of course some detours were involved...


...and Colton brought a beetle along for the ride that he had to come checking on...


...I have a feeling this is only just the beginning of creatures joining in on our adventures.  Oh, the joys of being a boy mom...times two.  God is good!!!
