The Bunch Have A Busy Week

 

H took this picture and I love it💕 My boys🥰

This week was interesting. We went to T's basketball meeting that talks about the season and practices, orders uniforms, and basically just covers what to expect for the year. We were thrown completely off guard when it turns out the evil man who groomed L had enrolled his daughter on one of the teams. I wish the DA office would move faster, but it is what it is I guess. D called recently to check on it and was told they are still reviewing the charges. Basically, we just told everybody the truth which is that he is looking at 2 counts of enticing a child and to be very careful around him. I am not sure what exactly they can do since he hasn't been formally charged yet, but at least everyone will be wary of him. In fact, several people said they won't let their child play if he is part of the team. At least if he is allowed to stay, we will only see them in passing at tournaments. He knew we were part of that organization and I am positive this is just him being a bully. We'll see what action, if any, they are able to take.

We also celebrated T's birthday with his friends this weekend. T wanted to go to the lake and have a cookout with his friends. We invited his whole basketball team, his friends from church, plus their parents and siblings. He had about 8 of his friends and their families come and we had a great time!  It was a lot busier than we anticipated, but we arrived about an hour before the party started and we were able to snag a cabana so we had a good amount of shade, plus the wind was pretty strong. Overall, it wasn't too bad. We had brought a bunch of camping chairs, a folding table, and some outdoor rugs. We set up a cozy little area to talk and the kids enjoyed swimming, playing volleyball, and throwing the football around. I brought a cooler full of Gatorades and another one with water. The Gatorade was completely gone by the end, but we had several waters left. D spent about an hour grilling all the hot dogs and hamburgers  we brought plus we had cupcakes for dessert. The wind made grilling a little hard, but D got it done. I brought chips too, but hardly anyone ate those. I am not sure if they just weren't seen or if no one eats chips anymore. They kept blowing away so I had to put them in the wagon and even though I told everyone I am not too sure they were listening. I hope they didn't think I was only serving a hamburger or a hot dog! We brought 24 of each and still have several left. I think the heat made everyone not as hungry. T had been looking forward to his party for awhile and I was so happy that so many kids showed up and that they had such a great time!!! 

The breeze and the shade made it ALMOST pleasant. I mean it still was like 98 after all.

H brought her fishing gear and tried fishing off the pier. I think it was just too busy though because the fish weren't biting.

C learned the hard way that Ray Roberts lake has more than one park! He ended up on the wrong end of the lake and had to back track. 😂

It was so windy we just pretended the candle was lit!😂

T and his best buds

What a wonderful day!

This week is my birthday and I think I am just going to relax and watch Hallmark, though T and I might venture to meet A for lunch during her break. We're also going to see Harry Potter in the theaters this week. Cinemark is showing them all in the theaters and A really wanted to experience it so her and T picked their favorite one and got tickets for us to see it. So far it's just us and 3 other people 😂.  I guess Harry Potter isn't quite what it use to be. A and I are counting down to our Girls trip! We are super excited!!!

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...

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 Have A Fantastic Week!

  Pickleball is always fun! Now that the weather has been nicer, albeit super windy, we have been trying to do our weekly pickleball match. Basically, this week whoever was playing with the wind won! We still have fun playing even when it is windy. In fact, playing in the wind probably makes us have more fun. The wind gusts sometimes pick the ball up and make it do some funny things, like getting the ball and pushing it back onto your side so you lose a point or blowing it three courts over! Luckily, we are usually the only ones there so it doesn't matter if we play across 4 courts. Afterwards, we usually go get some ice cream/ frozen yogurt and just enjoy our outing.  T went camping this weekend with his troop. They worked on orienteering, which I was super happy about since T needs to work on that something fierce, but unfortunately the boys in troop aren't much better than him at orienteering and the first guy oriented them upside down on the first one so they basically was...
