| My anniversary date at Bobbie's |
...at home. Our first week was at the beach. Our second was not officially a full week. I had to work 2 days, so Cole went to school. It is really nice that his school is so flexible and able to take him on days I have to work. Casey and I also decided to keep him in school one day a week (Thursday's) for consistency, plus hopefully I can get some things done around the house. We just bought land in Mt. Juliet. It's exciting but a little crazy since we have not sold our house or in my opinion are we anywhere near having it ready, but Casey assures me we are!! So if all goes as planned we will be living in a new house a year or less from now. :) Ok, back to our week...So I had to work Monday and Wednesday. So Tuesday Cole and I went to the downtown library for the first time (well, Cole's first time). It was something I did as a nanny, weekly, four years ago. The regulars (the everyday puppeteers and story tellers) were doing something else so it wasn't as great as it normally is, but we had a good time. We will be back for many visits. Wednesday after school and work we met The Wray's and the Greer's at Madison for a special event they had that night. They had the movie Cars, a jumpy house, food trucks and popcorn. It was a fun night for sure. On Thursday we met some friends at the zoo! It was a beautiful day, a little hot with a great breeze. We met up with Janet and Nicholas, and our new friends Candace and Channing. We had a great time. It was so fun watching the kids together. They are all 2, Nicholas was 2 in January and Channing was 2 in February. We hope to have more visits to the zoo with our friends. Friday was a laid back day, that night at 5:30 I had scheduled to get Cole's pictures taken. A friend of mine from work told me about this girl and she was doing mini sessions to raise money for the victims of the Oklahoma tornado. She took them at Sevier Park. I had posted about it on facebook, but didn't know until we were done that Amy (a mom from Cole's daycare) had seen my post and signed up her daughter Lily Kate for pictures too! So we ran into them. LK and Cole are SO funny together. They are best buds at school. The look on there face and reaction was quite priceless. I can't wait to see the rest of the pics that Jenni took. Friday was also mine and Casey's 10 year anniversary. Our present was the beach, but poor Casey had been working late all week trying to catch up after being off the previous week so Cole and I went to visit Aunt Tisha and ate dinner at Bobbie's, one of our new favorite summer spots. Saturday was a great day of just us three. We spent a lot of it outdoors. We grilled for the first time this summer. It was so yummy. We also went to visit Papa and give him his Fathers Day gift and hang out with him for a while. Mom and Brad are still in Australia, so besides Cole his best friends are all gone. I think he is a little lonely, but Cole was able to cheer him right up. Sunday was Fathers Day and it was just a nice relaxing day at home and more grilling with our favorite dad. After Casey's mom died and we were cleaning out her house we (Tisha and I) ran across an old cross-stitch about Fathers that she had done. So I cleaned it up, got a new mat and re-framed it for Casey for Fathers Day. He had no idea about it and absolutely loved it! It was a great way to end a wonderful week. Looking forward to more summer adventures.
