Hey friends. We made it to Friday. It has felt like a long week. The weekend started with celebrating Anna and Austin's birthdays, then Austin's actual birthday on Monday, non-stop catch up, Brian working a lot of evenings, and last night we spent a few hours at Cedar Point. I am ready for a day of rest. Yes I am dreaming. But we had a great week.
~ ONE ~
We finally checked out a new local coffee shop Coffee Therapy. I got an iced mocha with oatmilk. It was delicious and cheaper than Starbucks. They also had a lot of other local items, like cookies and bagels, etc. We will be going back there again.

Birthday party fun. My kids finally had a gorgeous day for their birthday party. Normally it is raining and crappy. This year it was hot and sunny, perfect for a water themed party. They had the water table, little pool, inflatable pool, and their big birthday present this year was the water slide. Austin had a friend from school and his brother, then all the neighbor kids and cousins.

Austin is officially 9. For his birthday he wanted cereal for breakfast, to play video games, play on the water slide, and pizza for dinner. He got his perfect day.
~ FOUR ~
Austin kept changing his mind where he wanted pizza from. He eventually picked Romeo's, which was the perfect choice. Brian and I shared a buffalo chicken pizza with a ranch sauce, it was delicious.
~ FIVE ~
I love grill season, not only do I not have to cook but it is light and refreshing. We had grilled salmon with grilled corn and grilled veggies. The yellow carrots were from our garden. The rice is a microwave 7 grain rice from Aldi.
~ SIX ~
I am keeping up with making myself a priority. It is like every other day I get up at 6am and get my workout done before anyone else wakes up but so far this week I am 5 for 5 with working out. I have one more workout to do this week to make up for missing one last week. I am feeling great, having more energy, and my body isn't screaming at me for being lazy.
In case you missed, here's a quick look at the blog this week:
Monday- Austin in 9
Tuesday - Birthday Traditions
Wednesday- Prime Day
Thursday- Our Week with 4th of July
