I turn 46!

Last night Addison gave me my birthday gift(s) because she was going to be going camping with her family today. They got me the summer sandals I wanted!  Target had a buy one get one 1/2 off sale and I wanted a black and white pair!  YEA!!!!

Zack took a picture of Addie taking a picture of me!  LOL!
Then Addison and Zack went home and Jeff and I went out to dinner with Tina and Gary.  They wanted to go to this Salvadorian restaurant at 24th st and McDowell.  It was in such a sketchy neighborhood and there was graffiti all over the restaurant but it was AMAZING!  A Mom and Pop restaurant.  Great prices and it felt like a home cooked Mexican meal!
 Addie was up all night in pain from an ear infection.  So Kaytee called Zack to come and get her in the morning to take her to the doctor and then they went camping.  She did indeed have an ear infection!  Poor girl!  Jeff and I had some errands to run and unbeknown to me, Addison and Zack  worked on my birthday present!  Alex was in contact with Cassie on what materials to get for making me a frame for my wall.  She even picked out and had printed the picture to go inside!  I was so excited to get it!  I was so happy with the picture she picked out!  It was one of the black and white ones I wanted on the wall!  I love homemade shhh!  I love pictures of our family!!  I love the time and effort that I know went into the gift.  I feel like that is the most special part of it!
 I look like I'm smothering my poor Nana!  After Jeff took this picture she asked me if the camera broke.  Oh, Nana!
 My Mom made enchiladas (at my request) and the big 4 layer cake that I love!  Again, the time and effort it took to throw the party, make all the food and make that cake plus the 4 or 5 other cakes she made, all for me (and Jeff) is the most special part!

 Posing with our cakes!
 The singing

 My Nana said to Jeff, "You're 94?"  LMAO!
 Nana got all the ice cream out and all the scoopers!
 Addie and Emily.  Addie's bday is July 28th and Emily's is August 11th.  Same year!
 Trish has the "app" that puts beards on you!  Ha! Ha! Ha?  Little did we know that Auntie Trish is a certified car seat installer!  She installed Connor and Cassie's car seat (the one we bought them).  I said, "I'm no expert, but seems to me that the car seat should be installed in the car, not on the roof!?" I thought it was funny!
 She got that sucker in there real tight!  Tate will be nice and safe!  Thanks Aunt Trish!

Principals list and a broken sandal

Addie had her end of the year award ceremony today.  It was also the last day of school!  yeah!?  Addie got a perfect attendance for the quarter award!  We were all floored! LOL!

 She also made "Principal List" for straight A's but they said she made "Honor Roll" which is not all A's.  At the end of the program...2nd grade did a beach theme song.
As we were all driving away from the school, I got a call from Addison.  She said that her sandal broke and she needed some shoes!  So I had to turn around, go back to the school and give Addie MY sandals!  Which meant I had to walk out of the school with her one good shoe (which was a little too small) and one foot barefoot!  Of course Addison's class is in the VERY back of the school!  So I had to walk all the way through the school and through the parking lot with one shoe one!  OMG!  So embarrassing! LOL!?
Kaytee made sure to tell Mrs. Abbott that Addie had all A's.  So Mrs. Abbott printed out the correct award for Addison and she brought it home after school :)

ALA Singers and McKennas 6th grade Promotion

Addie had her end of the year ALA Singers program on Tuesday.  There were 22 songs!  And Addie wasn't in all of them.  It was painful! Lol!

Christy did her hair real nice!
 Addie and her Daddy
 On Thursday, I went with my Mom to McKenna's 6th grade promotion.  Which wasn't a promotion.  It was a slide show in the media center.  Luken had to work so we went to support her.
 Nana got her some flowers and a balloon.  Katie got her some cupcakes and Starbucks
