The Home Stretch

Good evening everyone! Made it through another hectic week at work, and after this week, Mia will have completed the 2nd grade. WOO! This week was the Chelsea vs Arsenal final for the Europa trophy. I was pretty pretty pissed to have to work and miss it, however I Was stoked Mia wore her Chelsea shirt to support our fav team. They triumphantly defeated the Gunners 4-1. Hazard, who's rumored to leave London for Spain netted two goals. His farewell to the team he gave everything too. Unbelievable. Was stoked to watch the highlights when I got home with a much needed beer. It was such a rough season for my Blues, but they ended it on a high note picking up hardware. Hazard was injured the last time Chelsea was in the Europa final, so this win was a redemption. The EPL truly will lose one of the greatest players when he leaves for LA Liga. His creativity and incredible skills are unmatched. Mia's going to miss her football idol as well. I was super stoked to her the next morning that our beloved Blues pulled off the win :)

Thursday, we went to her little play at school the different groups put on. Her and a few kids performed a short Puss in Boots play. Mia was a magic mirror that she made all by herself. The kids did a great job and it was pretty cute. Originally I was going to do an art lesson, but it was sorta last minute and I didn't have any source material for my students to use. Hopefully we'll get in some more lessons too. Mia and I picked up Jill after work and we chilled out and had dinner.

Friday was our anniversary. 11 years married. And.....we didn't do anything. Jill and I love each other very very much, but we didn't find it necessary to take off (well me take off) from work to go out to dinner or anything. We reminisced about our wedding with Mia before she went off to school. Saturday, we celebrated my Mother-in-laws birthday a bit early with some dinner, a cake and fun. Jill and Mia made a strawberry lime cake but it didn't quite go as planned. Frosting was still really good. We watched Monster University before calling it a night when they split. I gave Mia a bath before she passed out for the evening.

Sunday, they came over for a picnic at the park on a gorgeous afternoon. Remi especially enjoyed it. We haven't taken him to Pro HealthCare Park in quite a while so he was super excited. We even let Mia walk Remi, which by the way was super cute and terrifying. I think as he's gotten older, he's gotten way better with walking and doesn't want to run immediately. He knew Mia was with him so he behaved well. I'm really the only person our dog ever runs with. I was proud of both Mia AND Remi for handling the walk. Later, I cut a bit of grass before calling it a night.

Lastly, I had some great drawings for Mia over the week. A pretty well-received quick sketch of some small orange cuties, and a very very rare attempt at Spiderman. I don't do superheroes but was intrigued by the classic comic book character and gave it a go.

This week is her last week of school. The home stretch. Sorta wish I would have got off on Friday since it's a half day, but what can ya do? Nothing else majorly planned so far. Possibly going to the Torrent game with Mia Saturday night. I'll continue looking for a new job as well. That's all for now, thanks for reading!
