Day 299

Hello blog, time for some happy moments...here we go
  • after the crazy Monday rush to school and speech therapy, Connor and I headed out on an adventure to the Orange County Zoo and Irvine Park Railroad.  We had the BEST time with other moms looking at animals, walking around, taking pictures, and riding the choo choo train!  I think Connor was pretty wiped out by the time we were done because he asked for a nap when we got home!  It was so great meeting more ladies from the moms group I recently joined...they are such sweet, amazing women and it was fun sharing mom stories and listening to their recent mom adventures.
  • My dad picked up Joel from school today and had a nice lunch with him so I could spend more time at the Park with Connor...happy moments all around for that one!
  • After work, I came home to an amazing cooked meal of potato bar that David and the boys put together.  We had a great dinner and then Joel helped me make the Bisquick strawberry shortcake recipe.  We put it in the oven and began Family Home Evening!
  •  FHE lesson of the night was being reverent and I showed the kids different body parts and asked them what we could do (for example with our eyes, ears, or arms) to be reverent.  Then I read a little poem about being reverent.  I then asked them to SHOW me "reverent" and both Connor and Joel folded their arms and bowed their heads...it was such a sweet moment and hopefully it ALL transfers to their classes at church on Sunday!
  • Then we had our strawberry shortcake dessert and it was bedtime!
Long day today, but lots of happy moments to remember!  I am so thankful for my two little guys!  Hope everyone had a good Monday!
