*nola's surgery went well, her recovery went well, she can hear, she can smell, she can sleep. best thing we did, just wish we had done it a bit earlier.
*avery graduated from preschool! we were invited to a short and sweet ceremony, complete with caps and gowns, songs, cake and ice cream. very proud of how well she did this year at school, from making friends to keeping her teachers on their toes (among the many funny reports from school, my favorite was "scotty, if you keep tickling me i'm going to have to punch you.")
*we finished out the school year, loaded up the car and drove to kansas city! this is a post in itself, but i'll condense it to one word: awesome.
the girls were awesome in the car, we had an awesome time when we stopped at our big destinations on the way, we had an awesome time in kansas city, and though there were a few more trying times on the way home (we were exhausted, we wanted to be home, we hate pennsylvania), we had an awesome time on the return trip. it felt great to get home and reconnect with the animals, our house and our routine.
*since we've been home we've been soaking up the summer. going to the res beach, eating out, cooking out, learning how to play crazy 8's, running, playing basketball, moving rooms around in our house for the millionth time, changing the bedtime routine, zane started to make a playhouse/fort for the girls in the back yard, we had neighbors over for brisket.
we have a few more weeks to enjoy the summer, hoping to get to the beach, go to the children's museum, go see a movie, eat more ice cream, read more books, eat more s'mores, enjoy more lazy afternoons and take more walks at night.
*i had an interview today. should know next week if i'm in the running.
crazy 8's!
