10 Year Anniversary

-
On Friday we all met Gran at Parker Uniforms to get Finn's school clothes for the year.  He is required to wear an HCA uniform every day to school. It was pretty crowded when he got there, but we were able to find most everything we needed.

Then we went to Dillards to pick out some school shoes.  Gran got Finn a pair of navy blue Sperry's and some Merrells.  Finn picked out both pair.  He did a really great job.

Thank you Gran for uniforms and the school shoes!  Next we went to Chik-fil-A for lunch.

Later that afternoon we all went over to Jack and John Matthew's house for a pool party.  The boys swam and played while Shelley and I prepared dinner.  We had a really great time.  I am really sad that Jack and Finn will be attending different Elementary schools.  We love this family so much.  We do plan to hang out with them as much as we can though. Before leaving the house that night Jack's dad gathered us all together and prayed over Jack and Finn and their first day of school.

The next day Michael took the boys to get donuts.  Sam was not too keen on getting out of bed.


After naps we went to Gran and Pa's house for our 10th Anniversary Party.  Gran and Pa planned a lunch get-together to celebrate. The whole family was there.  We had a great time.

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
