so what's new with you?

Well hello there and pull up a chair! It's another round of what's new with me (or you?)!
This past weekend killed me. The food that I digested well, it just makes me sick to think about. Except I didn't get sick and so it just added on to my bottom line. We need to get life in gear again you know? No more snacks allowed! And you know what's really hard for me? There is a block of sharp cheddar cheese in my fridge and wonderful pretzels and well, honey mustard. It's sort of my dream snack lately.

Outlander is finished for the season this Saturday. Wah! I am preparing myself emotionally.... mentally... physically.... I'll be sitting there with a box of tissues probably texting Brittany about how I can't stand it.

Over the weekend Letty got to cross an item off her summer bucket list. Right between "ride my bike" and "swim in the pool" was "eat AT McDonald's". I'm a drive through user through and through. My kids eat in the car allll the time. I mean it's not like we've never done it... we just rarely do it. My Fitzs (most of them) were free as well and got to meet up with us for a lunch and while it was ridiculously loud in there we all survived. And did you know kids ten and under get a free snack cone? Seriously. It's tiny. Adorable. But free! Is this every McDonald's? I just don't know.

We were all set and ready to take all three (!) kids to a drive-in movie theater over the weekend but there was so much going on I couldn't justify a late night before another late night.... And it would be late! The movie doesn't even start until 9:15.. and the nearest one is something like 45 minutes away soo... I'm going to keep tabs on it though. We will do this this summer. What a dream.

I got all my summer birthday shopping done already. No surprise there I'm sure. It's a busy few weeks, what with David, Letty and then my nieces Lena and Syd... So I did that and got paper products for the kid's birthday parties/dinner. Although once Letty's birthday hits I may just cry until September at that point.

Speaking of September I am working through getting my clearances so I can volunteer in her classroom... I had no idea how much work it was and how in depth it is! First time mom here obviously. I'm glad that they are so thorough that's for sure. All I have left is for my fingerprints to be ran through the FBI database or some such thing. All fun times.

Well, so what's up in your neck of the woods?

Linking up with Kristen and Gretchen today! Thanks ladies for hosting!
