Week in Review

Melanie's friend was sick and couldn't help her with her biggest wedding to date, so I stepped in Saturday as a flower transporter.

She did a beautiful job, as always. I was lucky that the wedding was near JT and Jim's home, so I was able to visit with them before I headed home.

 When I got back, Stace and I met up with our Mom2Mom friends at the bowling alley. It was a fun night!

 On Monday, Cora made us dinner, a lovely shrimp pasta. We'd like to have the girls make dinner more often now that they are getting older.

 Tuesday was Kona Ice day at Violet's school. She was happy to get some!

 And Friday was Western Spirit Day, where the students were encouraged to dress up. Violet had chosen these jeans and cactus print shirt at a consignment sale the day before, and the boots were hand-me-downs.

We then went to a Mom2Mom leadership meeting, where Violet played with her friend Daniela. We then picked up Cora, and two of her friends came over to play on the hill. I'm so happy that they still play imaginatively.

 On Friday night, we went to Vincenzo's, where we enjoyed pizza and the comedy of our friend Charlie. It was open mic night, and this was his second time performing. We were unable to make his first performance, so we were sure to be there for this one! He did great!

 Char had a big crowd of friends, including one who is an amazing artist, and was wowing Cora and Stace with his sketchbook.

Char came over on Saturday to play, and on Sunday, the girls went to their house to play games. The friend with the sketchbook was there, too, and he brought his virtual reality headset. Cora absolutely loved it.

Guess what these two are researching? Yep, VR headsets! Ummmm, they're REALLY expensive. Cora asked me how she can make some money... Char suggested she sell her left kidney.
