Water Parks Minus Sharks

Good evening everyone. Another busy week has passed with an even busier week ahead of me. Had kind of a nice week work-wise with two days off in the middle of the week, but we'll get to that later. Wednesday after school, Mia and BFF Olivia decided during class that they should go to Monkey Joe's. We had nothing planned and both her Dad and myself took the pint size pals to the inflated insane asylum. The girls had a lot of fun, per the usual sliding on just about everything. I love watching the kids play. They're so fun. I swear at one point, Olivia said to Mia "you and I have cute butts!"

Thursday, I took a rare day off so that after Jill got out of work, we could go to the Country Springs Water Park at their hotel. I have never been there before, and for $10 for three hours, you can't go wrong. Mia, who had woken up early that day to see what the Leprechaun left her, was able to keep a few moments of energy in her and enjoyed most of the water park. She didn't want to go on the bigger water slides, but really liked the lazy river. She tried a smaller water slide, but didn't care for the water that hit her right in the face. Later before we left, she hit up the arcade. She "beat" me at air hockey and won herself some things out of those claw machines. All in all, it was a really nice day together. She fell asleep on the way home and didn't get up till Friday morning. We didn't do anything special before I worked Friday. Just tried to clean before her birthday party coming up in a week.

Saturday I watched about 15 minutes of the Chelsea vs West Ham game. Jill, Mia and my Mom went to the Just Between Friends resale event in Waukesha while my Dad and I watched some of the game. We missed the majority of it, but I found out later they had a draw of 2-2. I had to take him to his acupuncture appt so we missed it. Glad they got a point out of it, but we should be doing better and at least try to win some games. Jeez. Later we went to Stefans for the old man to poke around and see what he could afford, which of course was not much. I saw the few Torrent jerseys left and one of the guys said that they sold out of all the adult sizes and only have small to kid size. That's amazing! They have to order more from the online store to be sold at store front. Incredible.  Later Saturday, Jill and I wrapped Mia's birthday presents, get the eggs ready for her birthday party/egg hunt and made homemade pizzas. Trader Joe's dough is so amazing. We finished the night off with some Man vs Food. Even Mia likes the show now.

Today, we did some cleaning and I washed some of Mia's new clothes. The fashionista needed more shorts and leggings. This kid is growing so fast. This week is very busy. Tomorrow, school and I have to drop off the eggs that she'll be putting into the Egg Hunt her friend's mom is hosting at the nearby park Friday afternoon. Wednesday,  She's got to bring her birthday treat to class and has an assessment test for her kindergarten she'll be enrolled in the fall. Thursday is spaghetti night at her school with a display of artwork (I have to miss it :() Friday, egg hunt with some kids from school, plus I believe one of Jill's friend is coming up as well. Saturday, CLEAN! Sunday, her 5th Birthday Party. So much to do, so little time. That's all for now. Thanks for reading!
