I’m back….and I mean it, I’M BACK! After a pretty craptastic last 2 weeks I’m happy to say the sicknesses have cleared our household, the sun has been shining, and my boys have been smiling. I know a large part of the positive change has been my attitude…I really needed to pull myself out of a funk and get back at it!
Thursday turned out to be a great day. I went to morning boot camp, met friends at a splash pad, and tired the boys out so they both took 3+ hour long naps…AT.THE.SAME.TIME! Any mom knows this is reason to celebrate! Since they napped so late we decided to take advantage of it and spontaneously jump into the car for an evening at the OC Fair. We had such a blast. 
Saturday morning I headed out to Laguna Beach to surprise my friend Andrea with a girls day of pedicures and brunch to celebrate the arrival of her second baby! They aren’t finding out the gender, and I’m putting it in writing here, that I think their daughter will be a big sister to a baby BROTHER. It was such a nice morning of girl talk and pampering to celebrate a very special lady and her growing family.
I headed home to hang with the boys for the afternoon, then got ready for a date night to the John Mayer concert in Irvine. This is probably the 5th time I have seen John Mayer in concert, but this was definitely my favorite show to date. We had a great time tailgating {yes Greg and I set up our own beer pong game in the back of our Jeep}, had awesome seats thanks to his client, and couldn’t have asked for a better set list. Another successful Summer concert. Next up Dave Matthews Band in September then Pearl Jam in the Fall {yes…PEARL JAM!…my favorite band since the 6th grade}
Since Saturday night was a little too much fun, I had to bow out of my usual Sunday run. I was going to go for 10 miles, but I guess that will have to wait until this coming weekend when I’m a little less…dehydrated :). We slept in, which in our house is 7:00am, then got ready for a birthday party held at one of our local splash pads. My friend Amy put together such a cute party for her son Parker’s 2nd birthday. We had an awesome time and couldn’t have asked for a better way to end the weekend.
Looks like a good weekend!
I’m happy to hear that sickness has left your household. What a fun weekend you had — have seen John Mayer in concert too. Love him!
That looks like the perfect weekend! I am so jealous of all your concert-going! I’m glad everyone is feeling better! Stay healthy boys!
So so glad everyone is feeling better and you were able to enjoy the weekend. Sounds wonderful. Love the surprise celebration for your friend having her second too! Adorable.
