The Bunch Finish Birthday Week

The kids had to test ALL the furniture out, which was conveniently under all the shelves.

First off, Iris, the horse, has had no more issues this past week, though I did make extra sure to hose her down on the super hot days. I am really happy that this week will be nice and cool so I should be less busy checking on all the animals all day for heat exhaustion. We celebrated A's birthday the day before since she had to work on her birthday. She wanted to go shopping at Joann's for some crafting stuff she wanted and she also wanted to go check out the brand new At Home store that opened last week. We have been waiting for it to open and it did not disappoint. We also drove up to Gainesville to take A out to lunch on her actual birthday. She wanted to go to Schlotzkys again. I got the gluten free BBQ pizza which except for the crust still being cold from being frozen was better than last week's sandwich, but still not impressed. For the price, I would rather go to a regular restaurant. 

This week D, T, and I are heading out to my favorite camping spot for a couple of days. This time L has to stay back with A because of school. A is all kinds of excited about having company. She hates being alone. However, L is less than thrilled about how A is not only super excited about her staying home, but also about her being recruited to cook all of A's meals!😂 This should be interesting. 

Have a great week!

We get there early to put our order in so everything is ready when A gets there. The worst part for T is staring at his lunch for 5 minutes while we wait for A to get there.

A loves seeing her family in the middle of the day. And getting a free lunch!

My pizza looked good, but was cold still.

A loves the bacon ranch calzone. This is  her second time getting it.

She had a great birthday!

I can't believe she is 20!!!! Where does time go?!?

NoNo being her normal helpful self with laundry. At least she hasn't gotten in the dryer again!😂

The Bunch Are Off To A Wonderful 2025 And Are Considering A Change 🤔

It's official, she has a college diploma!! Besides totally enjoying a drama free year, we have been consciously spending time doing things as a family and spending time with each child doing things they enjoy. D has been playing ball and watching movies with his larger "mini me" while A and I have been spending a lot of time in Dallas going to the theatre. A absolutely loves going to see off Broadway productions! I won't be surprised in the slightest if she ends up getting season tickets. Dallas Broadway does a lottery to each show where if they draw your name you have 3 hours to buy tickets for $39 each including all fees! That is an absolute steal! She actually won the lottery on Tuesday so we went that night to see the production of "& Juliet". The seats she won were FANTASTIC! They don't give you cheap seats in the back for the lottery. You win good seats. The seats we ended up with worked out to be only about a quarter of the regular price! We h...

The Bunch Visit Family

  We had fun playing some board games...and it wasn't even a fun jar idea! We just did it because it sounded like fun! The fun jar has been a little slow being implemented this year. T made sure to let me know! We're making up for it next week by drawing several things.  We have had a wonderfully busy week visiting family and getting things done around the house. We went over to my parents house to celebrate Father's Day and while the boys played games with Grandpa, the girls went with Grandma to show her what all the fuss about Trader Joe's is about. She enjoyed looking at all the different things and even found a few gems of her own. It was a nice day and fun to get out together for a little bit. We had a great day!🥰 We picked up Whataburger for my Dad as a treat and my mom made some tots and a side salad up to go with it.💗 We also had a nice long visit with our Aunt P. She's been under the weather and we hadn't had a visit in a couple weeks so it was nice t...

The Bunch Start Birthday Week

  Yes, my Mom had my name misspelled on the cake.😂 It was still yummy so it was all good. T, A, and I all have our birthdays within a week and a half. Which means there is a crazy amount of sugar within those 10 days. We always like to make whoever's birthday it is feel special for the day. We watch what they want,do activities they like, eat what they pick, do their chores for them, etc. It not usually too expensive, but just a fun day where it's focused on them. The kids use to use their days to rule like little kings and queens, but have become a lot calmer in their "old" age since they get to do whatever they want most of the time anyways. We are a pretty close family and do a lot of things together all the time anyways, but on birthdays we still make sure we defer to the birthday boy/girl. My birthday is first and the kids do so many nice things for me all the time, but they put forth an extra effort on my birthday. This year A even woke up early to turn the cof...
