Last night we had our summer fete to celebrate the house being off the market!!! Also celebrating Josh's promotion and finally having a dining room table and chairs, so basically any reason to have friends over for eating, drinking and playing!
Jack and Ewan had a blast playing with their friends. As usual everyone ran the loop downstairs!! It was rather warm inside, especially with the crows and running kiddos (didn't help that it was 100+ outside or that I made pasta and had the oven on before everyone came). Eventually the munchkins were able to play upstairs and even out in the sprinkler to "cool off" a little!
I enjoyed myself too. Got a chance to chat with friends and enjoy myself a little too. It's nice to have the kiddos occupied and enjoying themselves. The food was good and we'll be eating it for a while as we have plenty of leftovers! Bonus was I got Sean to eat some of the rice salad today. It's always nice to get him to try something new. Of course after several bites he played with it and spit it out, but I'll settle for that, especially since it had quite a bit of cumin!
So now it's just on to surviving the heat...hopefully by September it will cool off a little bit, at least in the evenings and mornings! Where to start on our long to do list for home improvement projects......kitchen, family room, garage, outdoors??? Sounds like Josh is going to start working on the tree house and zip line soon. More than anything I am just enjoying the house being off the market...this past week for the first time I actually left for the gym at 8AM WITHOUT making Jack and Ewan's beds!!! I must admit though, it is nice to already have such a clean house and be in the habit of keeping it clean and clutter free.
