Family Day!

Yesterday we spent the day as a family, celebrating our anniversary. Clay had to work on our anniversary so we loaded up the car and went to Aunt Debbie's to help her celebrate her birthday. I'll post pictures of that soon. There was lots of good food, minute to win it games, and swimming! We had a blast. Clay had yesterday off so we decided to celebrate our anniversary. First, we went to the dentist. We got an A+ on our teeth, no cavities, then we were ready to do something fun! We went to the movies and saw Despicable Me! We absolutely loved it. We all have our favorite parts. I love the minion guys, they're hilarious. Knowing that Steve Carrell's voice is being used makes it super funny! I even cried, that's how you know if a movie is good or not, Roxy cries if it is. I want to go see it again. The kids loved it as much as I did. Yes, we took the kids with us to celebrate our wedding anniversary, we're not big on celebrating without them. After the movie we were off to Home Depot to get a few things. The girls were super hungry but we all hung in there while Dad shopped around. Then we did a little school shopping. We picked out backpacks (I didn't know it would take a second grader and a fourth grader almost an hour to pick out a backpack!). By the time everyone was happy with their selections we were all a bit testy and super hungry. We went to Chili's to eat. The kids ate all their food, and we all left full, it was super yummy!

Then, with our tummy's full, we hit more stores for school shopping! We shopped till we dropped. We had a fun filled day as a family and got lots of pretty new things for school. Going school shopping helped us realize the ugly truth.........school starts in less than a month :( We aren't ready to go back as of right now but hopefully that changes soon.
