June Tidbits

First of all, HAPPY PRIDE! I love how June is a little more colorful and happy everywhere you go. This is the local Starbucks:

The girls made sure to wear their finest rainbow attire to church (Liesel was in Savannah, GA with her Girl Scout troop):

I popped on a Disneyland pin:

The school year is over which means the start of workbooks! Miraculously, Sydney began hers without the usual weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth.

June 3rd is National Donut Day and Ireland was willing to celebrate with me.

There was a tornado warning while we were at Woodfield Mall and they ushered everyone into the tunnels- which was kinda cool.

Little reminder from Sydney that tomorrow at 5 she gets to play Roblox...

I went in to work and got to peek at the Sears Tower all day. Kinda cool.

Happy Father's Day to Brent!

I bought this cookbook as soon as I became aware it existed. I don't know that Brent will ever actually cook from it, but it's hilarious just to thumb through.

 Me: Dad did you enjoy your Harry and David basket?
Dad: Huh?
Me: THE HARRY AND DAVID BASKET I SENT YOU FOR FATHER'S DAY!?!?!??
Dad: That was you?
Me: There was a card...
Dad: No, I'm pretty sure there wasn't!
Not to mention we have gifted them Harry and David for several years now...

Rock-Paper-Scissors with tortillas. It doesn't hurt... but it sounds like it does.

Love hanging out at Lush. How cute is this moustache soap for Father's Day?

No matter which way you look at it!

Another successful visit to the Pulmonary Clinic for this girl!

We stuck up to the higher floors for a quick pic of that famous stadium!

Stopped by the house and Grandpa immediately put Ireland to work ripping up the floorboard of the Model A... as one does with their grandchild.

I didn't get to spend much time with either of my grandparents since they were in California and we lived in Iowa and didn't travel much. I'm glad Ireland has such a close relationship with both sets of grandparents!

We snuck in a little shopping and this is Ireland trying to decide if she's a "muscle-tee" kind of girl.

Liesel's petite mouth needed some oral surgery and after a lot of back and forth, we finally got it taken care of! I was amazed how quickly she bounced back.

As soon as I saw the school supplies out, I dragged Liesel to Target to get that taken care of. Then she will not be plagued with thoughts there would be cuter folders and notebooks, if only her mom was on the ball. Check this one off the list!

With BJ and Jeanne in town, Brent and I were able to go to our downtown offices, meet up for lunch and then his work had a happy hour afterward I crashed. Is it ridiculous if I say I felt like such a grown up?

Brent's office is SO PRETTY! Check out this chandelier! His kitchen is fully stocked and there are gorgeous views from every window. He just swipes his badge and the elevator takes him right to his floor. 

Not a bad start to summer!
