We've been exhausted and busy and happy. The week turned out to be emotional as we didn't get the house we made an offer on, but another house worked out and we're having an inspection done tomorrow!
Monday: Austin has given up naps, but after a busy weekend with cousins, he took a long afternoon nap. Since he and Eleanor napped a long time, we decided to go swimming after picking Eli up from school!
Tuesday: We delivered birthday invites to Eli's friend for his 6th birthday party!!
We were in the area of the library so we went to story time with a state patrol!
And then the kids were invited to climb into the cop car!
Tuesday after school, we drove up to Denver to meet all the Hostetter girls for dinner and chatting. The boys played on this amazing swing set outside.
Wednesday: We met up with the Bensons for a much needed park date!! Eleanor was so proud of herself for going down the slide all be herself. She loves feeling so big!!
Wednesday after school we played outside with the neighbor kids. All these military children stopped and put their hand on their hearts when they heard the national anthem being played at the academy.
This made me laugh - the boys got sent to time out and Eleanor decided to join them.
She wants to be a vet! She loves animals the most out of all our kids.
FRIDAY was Eli's birthday party! He has the cutest friends at church.
They played laser guns and the floor is lava and boxing and wrestling and then it turned into a water gun party too. They were dirty and happy and wet!
Eleanor woke up just in time for a cupcake!
Eli's friends were so generous and gave him the best presents!
After the party, Teigan delivered flowers and a cute book and said, "To get you through the weekend..." My friends as so thoughtful! It made me cry!!
Saturday we drove down to Pueblo to the children's museum. We wanted to go one more time before we move.
And Eli is getting so great at building Legos all by himself!
Our bishopric was released today and it was a spiritual sacrament meeting. I'm grateful for bishops that give their time and energy to serving in their calling.
