Fun Filled Week

We started this week by getting Clara a new bike.  She LOVES it and actually does really well riding it around our neighborhood.

We also celebrated Eric's birthday with an adult only dinner.  We tried to go to The Cheesecake Factory, but they don't take reservations.  So we showed up at 4:30 on a Monday thinking we wouldn't have to wait too long.  We were wrong.  They couldn't seat us until 8 pm.  So we walked to a near by Olive Garden, still weren't happy with the wait time, so we walked to Red Rock and got seated right way!

Clara also had a field trip to a fire station this week.  I got to dress up in a fireman's suit, which was really heavy!  Then all the boys got black fireman hats, and the girls got pink ones.

 

We ended our week by getting to attend Cameron's ordination, and birthday party.  It's always so amazing to me to see such young boys (and girls) be making such huge decisions in their life. I'm so proud of Cameron (and all my nieces and nephews) for continuing to make good choices with how they want their lives to turn out.

• We went for a family walk and Clara was very disappointed when she realized we weren't walking to a friend's house.  2 teenage girls were walking towards us about then and Clara asked me if we could go to their house.  I told her, "No, because we don't know them."  "Well, we just have to ask them their names then."
