The Fun has Just Begun

Cindy, Erick, & Jennifer came up from San Diego this past weekend. It was so much fun to have them here. They stayed at the Nugget. It's right down the street from our house, less than a mile away, and it has a super fun pool to swim in. We took the kids over there twice to swim. They had a blast. We went to the Truckee River to raft & play in the water. Played games & went shopping. I got all of Sloan's school shopping done in one fail sweep at this store. I used my Gymbucks (thank you Zana) so I got $50 worth of clothes for a little over $32 due to tax. Everything is super cute. I am having a hard time believing that she starts school in less than two weeks. I love year round school, but the summer month is the hardest to go back early from. I'm super happy that we got all that shopping done for such a bargain.

I always dread the day that company leaves. There is always such an emptiness in the house the day after. Schedules are resumed, the house is cleaned, & kids get to bed on time. I still miss the fun of having family and friends come to play. The good news is that Cindy & Erick & Jenn are coming in just a few weeks to stay for another long weekend. They are coming for The Best in the West Rib Cook-off. It is one of our favorite events to go to. The ribs are delicious, tons of yummy fried veggies, funnel cakes and all the coleslaw one person could ever dream of. Amazing yumminess & the fact that we get to go with them this year will be a total blast. Can't wait.

What are you spending your long summer days doing? Hope you are all having as much fun as we are. Hugs to you all and have a happy weekend.
