Zach turns 7!



We had a party for Zach on Saturday and he had a lot of fun! I can't believe that he is already 7! He wanted a sports theme party and invited some friends from school. I was ready for him to throw some type of fit during the party...you know, not wanting to share his new toys or something...but I was pleasantly surprised that he didn't throw one at all! He was in a great mood the whole time and even let his friends put together his new toys and play with them! I was relieved! Aiden, our neighbor, even stayed after the party was over because they were all playing so nicely!

I loved having a low key, old school party..you know, pin the tail on the donkey, musical chairs, goodie bags. There is no need to spend hundreds of dollars on a birthday party people! When we lived in Arizona it was crazy, people would spend so much on their kids parties! Bree's one friend took about 15 kids to Build A Bear! It was fun for Bree of course, but then I felt tremendous pressure to keep up with the Jones'!

Last night I went out to dinner with some work friends and it was so much fun. I love a good Girls Night Out! I told my mom the other day that I love my job mainly because I have made new friends. Anyway, they all wanted sushi, which I tried and did like one roll and loved the Tempora. But, I didn't eat all that much. We still wanted to hang out a bit more and someone suggested Village Inn because it wouldn't be crowded. Now we're talkin'! If anyone knows me, I love places like that. So they all got some dessert and there I was chowin' down on an omelet and pancakes!!! Such a fun night, thanks girls!
