Most people who know me could figure me for a planner, schedule keeper & list maker. I don't do spontaneous things very often. The only problem (if you could call it a problem, more like a predicament) is that I married the most spontaneous man on the planet! Last minute plans with people he doesn't even know is what he likes to call fun. Me? not really! But every now and again I break rank and I travel over to his side of the world and it completely pays off! We had a wonderful weekend and I met a new friend that we will be doing many things with this summer. Ken knows the husband, they called early evening on Saturday night to see if we could go to the DBacks Baseball game with them. Luckily,Ken had already had a babysitter lined up and I had just happened to get myself ready early. So, sitter came early and we were out the door. Turns out, the seats were AMAZING, the weather was wonderful and we had the best time! The wife was a complete doll and we were chatting immediately. Anyway, I forgot my camera (and secretly, didn't want to look like a dork to these people that I was just meeting!) so I have no record of the event but it was tons of fun. They don't live that far from us and it sounds like they live in the pool all summer as well so it's a good match! Fun times and I might even try the spontaneity thing a little more often! ;)
Other than that we have just been in the pool a lot!!! Ava gets in her floaty and just kicks herself back and forth until she finds a step to stand on and pick the flowers from the edge. She hates putting on sunscreen but it's getting better. I already have a great tan and it's only June! I dare say that I will be tanner than my mother at our beach trip in July! Ok, probably not. But anyhow, that is what we have been doing. Ava had another follow up Cardiologist appt. today and all is well! She has tons of energy and when I let her in the pool in the morning, she will nap for 3 hours! I do have some video of the pool that I will try and get posted soon!
Hooray for summer!!!
Sounds like so much fun!! I am jealous :) And I am glad you are being optimistic about being more tan than mom..lol..
