Fun week with friends (mine and Zach’s)! My friend Sandy and her husband Neuzil hosted a Wine Tasting party Saturday night. There were many bottles of wine to try, and even more food … I counted 19 platters. She even put out a cheese plate with me in mind – it’s no secret amongst my friends that cheeses are a great weakness of mine.
Since Rachel’s birthday was earlier this month, we had to stick a candle on a cream puff and sing “Happy Birthday!” What a great party – so nice seeing all my friends. And Sandy can definately add “chef” to her resume – what an incredible spread, and everything looked as good as it tasted too!
Sunday, we hosted Zachary’s 8th birthday party at an indoor rock climbing place. We celebrated with Aunt Sophie, Uncle Eddie, and 7 of his best friends. If sweat and dirt indicates a good time, he had a blast!
(Part of me is impressed, but then again, I think … I have to haul up ~100 more lbs!)
He’s not a fan of cake, but LOVES cookies … so a cookie cake was perfect for him.
Since Sophie and Eddie visited, we played Stone Age after the kids went to bed. Two yoga classes, a ~3 mile run, massage, and working until 1am rounded out the weekend for me.
Monday evening, I went on a triple date with my previous manger and my admin. Love the work discount card - buy 1 get 1 free at Fats! Also added a picture of Zachary’s gingerbread man he decorated for his classroom. And course, Calie had to make one too … she cut out a photo of Zachary’s face to paste on the gingerbread man (is she mocking him?) Speaking of Calie … super Calie is back. A few months ago she retired her cape after a boy in class told her “girls can’t be super heroes.” Today, she put her cape (and sunglasses) on, marched into her classroom, and told him,”My mom said you’re wrong.”
