This weekend was too fast, too furious hot. I’m done with this heat! Today is going to be 90-something and I’m going to just burst into tiny embers, or melt completely. Summer, I love you, but I need some marine-layer breaks! Throw a girl a bone!
Aside from feeling all melty, and wishing that the weekend was 3-days instead of the sad, piddly 2, it was a lot of fun! Kamel and I got to go on a canoe-ing date, my parents got to watch the baby (who then he took a FIVE hour nap, WHAT?) and then we got to celebrate a baptism and a birthday party at my friend Tricia’s, for her 2 year old and 1.5 month old. They bought a bouncy house, you guys. They own that shit. Genius parenting choices right there – screw constant rentals, OWN!
But now it is Monday and I have the womps. Stupid Monday. Stupid work week. I’ll be checking this blog a thousand times today to relive the fun.
(Under the freeway we went! There were lots of baby birds chirping and asking for food from their nests. It was really cook, and a little spooky.)
(His first experience in a bouncy house was a mixed bag.)
(Thank you to Tricia, Jack, and Reese for letting Gabe climb all over your stuff!)
(Why do I stand like that?)
Oh man, the lily pads. I can’t.
Also – I kind of love that you stand in 3rd. All ballet, all the time. 😉
Bouncy house! One of the other families from daycare also bought a bouncy house to use for the kid’s first birthday. Now if it’s super hot or super cold, they set it up in their living room and invited other folks over. It is AWESOME.
Canoeing looks so great. I want to do that!
(When) you ladies come visit we should do this with the kids! Gabe is ALMOST old enough to hang in the boat with a life jacket and say “duck!” on repeat. 🙂
Canoe date is such a cool idea! Did ya’ll rent a boat? I love getting out on the water with my significant other and this is a great way to do that minus all the hassle of transporting your own boat! Plus your water looks super interesting (lily pads, ducks, AND a stadium all in one paddle? WIN!).
Also, isn’t that third position you’re standing in? Dancer?
Hahaha I have never taken dance (aside from hip hop) before. So, that is all natural untrained talen there, folks!
And we did rent a boat! The university rents them for $11/hour! Super easy. It is a 5 minute drive from my house. 🙂
I had a fun weekend too and therefore am also feeling wompy today. Mondays after fun weekends are the absolutely worst.
