Summer Day

I couldn't believe the summer weather that we had today. 85 degrees felt fantastic! Today was another busy Friday. Hal was off to work this morning and then went to the new house to meet the carpet cleaner. He cleaned the carpets throughout the whole house and they look fantastic! We are truly lucky as the house has amazing carpet all over! Then he went back to my parents house and got ready to leave for Nate's (brother-in-law) cabin.

My day went quick too. I dropped Sophia off this morning and she was eager to get going. Corey to the kids to the park for three hours today. She said that Sophia wanted to do everything on her own. Apparently these new shoes have given her this new independent attitude! She played very hard at the park and then crashed.

I got a long run in this afternoon after school which was a great way to end the day. Then we got ready and went to Champps for dinner. Sophia and I made sure to wear our Twins t-shirts. So far, they're losing, but who knows.....

While waiting for our table, Papa took Sophia outside walking. She loved the big huge fountain outside. She also enjoyed the people sitting out on the patio.

She was quite the trooper tonight during dinner. She used color crayons for the first time and colored all over her menu. When our food came she ate all of her chicken fingers and tons of fries. Tonight was the most I have ever seen her eat. After dinner, we went over to the new house to turn the fans off. It was quite an adventure as I had no clue which light switches turned on which lights or which switches turned on/off the fans. Two of the fans have remotes, but the other two didn't. So my dad and I went hunting around and found them.

Sophia talked the whole way home and then fell asleep right before we got home. She was super tired. She drank her milk with her eyes closed. Then we sat on the potty chair and guess what...........SHE WENT AGAIN!! Three nights in a row!!!!! We are so proud of her.

Tomorrow we have super busy day. We will be getting up early to go to our Bumblebees Gym/Tumbling class. Then we are off to a huge sale at the Eagan Community Center. After that we are stopping by the MOA to do a bit of shopping and have a bite to eat. Then the rest of the day is up in the air. In the evening, we are headed to White Bear Lake to hang out with the Gutts.
