2020: weeks 31-32

 Monday (8/10) we went golfing as a family - that's my third time this year!

Blake got a bee sting Sunday. We were trying to look at it, but she wouldn't let us. She told Bryan that if he looked at it she would slap him in the face. The I decided to take a video of Bryan asking her about it, seeing if I could catch a repeat on video. What I caught was her telling Bryan that if he tried to look at her sting that she would cut his eyes out so he couldn't see it and proceeding to tell him how she'd do it (with the kitchen scissors cause they're bigger and sharp). We were dying. So aggressive. 

Monday we also celebrated my friends birthday and we had a fiesta! Brought on because she found this dress at Target but didn't get it because of the price - fast forward I found them on clearance for $18 (shocking cause it's so ...flattering, ha) so we got enough to be an instumentless/musicalless Mariachi band. It was obnoxious good fun. Our husbands mocked us the whole time. Also, I got to show off my awesome yard. It was delightful. 

Wade asked if I could get oranges because "We haven't had oranges in forever! Like two years! I think I forgot what they taste like." Okay buddy, we ran out three days ago. 

A blogger I follow challenged people to take pictures of you living in your spaces - Sunday morning I captured moments that were naturally happening. The only posing I did was in one I moved a chair out of the way. Loved seeing my family in our home. Made me so happy. 

Yesterday I was cleaning the garage and decided to paint the yellow step, it escalated. Today I started painting a shelf to go in there and I let the girls help (I'm asked daily if they can help me paint). They both kept saying, "Mom, this is the best day ever!" 

Bought a butterfly habitat and it got here today. Wade was catching them and putting them in a salad container, but he had covered up all the holes he poked in it (?) and I found a pile of butterflies he had "released." They were all dead. Poor beautiful creatures. Banned him from catching more until the new habitat came - I haven't seen any of my kids since it got here two hours ago. 

Lined up toothbrushes. Apparently old ones have not been being thrown away when knew ones are given.

Discovered two blackheads in Jac's ear. I tried to get them. She did not appreciate that. 

I continue to be a maniac on projects. Bryan asked that I don't start any until everyone comes to visit at the end of the month, and to "please finish the banister." I only started it in...November? Fine. But he didn't say I couldn't start prepping for more projects...been moving and organizing stuff. My house is so...in order right now! Besides the baskets of stuff that "need a new home."
