Today was a long, but alright, day. We started off by spending some good quality time at a few stores (Kohls - returns and shopping to spend my $20 in Kohls cash, Target for birthday gifts and Sears for more returns). We rode escalators and stopped off at the play area to break it up, and they did great.
Since I knew we'd be out for a while, I packed a lunch and planned to find a park wherever we were at lunch time. Luckily we were on our way home by 11:30, so we were able to go to one of our favorite parks (where we randomly ran into some friends!).
When we got home, Andrew wanted some water balloons. We didn't have any on hand so we decided to fill up regular balloons with water. Almost as cool...
...with a way cooler splash!
Mason created his first Mr Potato Head creation.
Then we got ready to sell the MG. This is the car that Matt and AJ drove to our wedding in. Matt had planned to fix it up but realized he was never going to do it, so decided to sell it. The person who is buying it went to get cash out but he maxed out his ATM withdrawal for the day so we're doing it tomorrow. Hopefully! We've had a lot of people interested but it always falls though. This guy wants it, I just hope this extra day didn't give him time to change his mind.
We finished the day off with a couple drinks at church. : ) It's too long of a story to share here, but I wanted to be sure to remember this since it's a big change for our church. The short version is that our church is separating into 4 separate campuses and this was the launch (or re-launch since we're going to the same place) of our campus. Our church knows how to throw a good party, inspire you and talk about God all in the same hour. I love that place! (PS. On the big screen you can see the finalists (of which a representative from our table was up there, thank you!) for the game of Say What?! that we played. Just didn't want anyone to get confused). : )
