February came and went in a flash! Finn and I spent a lot of time outside in the yard, enjoying the beautiful weather. On this day, he helped me spray paint his Valentine's box, which then led to spray painting flower pots, rocks, and leaves. He worked on this picture for a very long time, and I loved it so much, I asked if I could frame it. He told me no, that he already promised it to his friend at school...haha. I remember when Fox was his age, he loved going up on the flat part of the roof, and this guy was the same way. We had some balls up there, that he got down for us, and he thought he was so cool. Katie and I split the kids up one night, because they both asked for more "one on one time", and Finn and I had a late night ice cream date. He's been really into drawing and reading before bedtime. We saw the new Dogman movie in the theater and they both loved it. Fox had a dodgeball tournament at school that I was able to attend. This is one of his best friends ...
My favorite weekend every year: our annual girls trip! Since starting work full-time at the hospital last summer, I don't get to see my friends a lot anymore, I'm either with the boys, or I'm working, but for this trip I took some PTO and it was everything I needed and more. This year, we rented the cutest little cabin in Pine, about two hours from Phoenix. Becky and I shared this cute bedroom. The bunk room! After everyone arrived, our friend Corinne cooked us dinner, and we played games by the fire. This may have been one of my favorite parts, we all sat outside enjoying the sunshine and reading our books. We had some mimosas before walking into town to get some lunch and shopping. What I love about these trips, is that there is no pressure, and no expectations. Everyone can do their own thing if they want to, want to take a nap...go take a nap, want to read your book...go read, but it was also really amazing spending all this time together, making meals, playing gam...
