I am way behind in my blogging - not sure why - I think it has to do with the fact that I'm still a bit awkward about getting photos from my phone to the computer - so I Instagram and FB more than I blog sometimes. But that doesn't mean I don't have it on my "To Do List" to catch up!
This weekend was Eve's Grandma's Birthday Weekend - and hers actually got done in a pretty timely manner - we are on hold for some July birthdays!!
Of course the big items are lunch, shopping for the birthday gift, a manicure, and time with Grandpa!!
We've pretty traditionally done Target, Marshall's and Kohls - but Eve wanted to go to Old Navy - we were wishing we had Phoebe with us too - for her discount!! We found some cute things for Eve - and we ran into her 2nd grade teacher - who left MUSD the year after she taught Eve, so it was a nice surprise!! Eve said Ms. Rodriguez was her favorite teacher! I'm impressed they both recognized each other!
I might have been tempted to do the mani/pedi route, but I broke my little toe last week, so I wasn't up for it - and Eve was more excited about the manicure and the little flowers on her nails!!
We had an evening of games - with short breaks to check on the status of the BYU vs UCLA game and to be jealous of the Bolanders and Aunt Donna being at the ABBA concert at the Hollywood Bowl!! We played Chickenfoot, RummiKub, and Quiddler. Eve won the first two - and Grandpa cleaned up with Quiddler - not surprising since Eve dealt herself a hand with 9 consonants and one vowel!
Of course we had chocolate milk and Milanos - and the personal Grandpa Bob story!!
Our studious, high-achieving Miss Eve had homework too!! Some things never change - especially during the school year!
Always fun to hang out with this lovely young teen!!
