cool toots

*Our no soda rule (or at least less soda) led Chris to bring home some Crystal Geyser Flavored Seltzer Water for us to try. There was no sugar or artificial sweetener. Exactly. It tasted like nothing despite its, Very Berry "flavor". Yuck!

*Today was Chris' birthday. His dinner request:

Peanut Butter Pasta (Thai peanut sauce I make)

Bread

Cookies n' Cream Ice Cream

Pretty simple! We had a nice dinner and the kids enjoyed giving him their homemade cards. Our favorite part of Kendall's card was when she wrote that Chris has, "cool toots". Nice. :)

*Chris had someone back into his car yesterday. Luckily they left a note. Today we got the rental car while his is being fixed. Kendall was SOOO excited about getting our, "vacation car". :)

*We went to our favorite pumpkin patch several days ago. We were the only ones there for a while and the kids loved running around, despite the heat! :)
