Thoughts for Thursday

It seems crazy to me that it is only Thursday. This week feels extra long and it's actually a day shorter! What's even crazier that this week feels long is that I've been away from the kids twice this week, which usually a break makes everything shorter but for some reason not this time.

Tuesday I cashed in part of my Mother's Day gift and headed to the salon. I haven't dyed my hair since college (it was a terrible idea back then - blonde is not my color) and the grays were taking over. I saw a friend of a friend who is an amazing colorist and then followed it up with a cut. And who knows what balayage is, but I had it done. Maybe even more impressive than no longer seeing gray hairs is that Chris survived with the kids. I returned home to a report of no tears and there were two neighborhood kids playing too.

(14 months without a cut...phew)

After

It's tournament time for baseball. There was a game Tuesday night and then two games last night, except by the time the sitter arrived and I made it to the field the sky had opened up and it was pouring rain. I missed a couple innings but it looks like they will have to restart the games this weekend. So we headed to Amelie's and then called it a night. Usually only N has weekend games so when T heard we had a sitter and he had a game he asked if he won could we go. We told him win or lose we'd go. The three guys sat there soaking wet and cold but enjoyed every bite of their french pastries.

Our weekend was rather low key with baseball practice, church, some shopping, dinner with friends (and a super fun family kickball game afterwards), and neighborhood walks for doughnuts. We also spent one evening making smores, hunting fireflies, and lighting sparklers.

She left with the flip flops...I'm a sucker.

The little ones too small for kickball were rewarded with playground time after the game.

All my kids dislike going to church, but love the lemonade and goldfish after 

(and of course tree climbing too)

Our walk on Memorial Day led to pastries, coffee, a fountain, and a little shopping.

 I hope your week is going well. Happy June! It's a little crazy we are in June already! The kids have one more week of school.... eek!!!
