June

I can’t believe June has sprung up on us! June is always Dan’s month, with Father’s Day, our Wedding Anniversary, and his birthday we just love celebrating him. This year he turns the 40!!! It’s crazy to think how when younger we viewed 40 to be so old and now here he is, I asked him recently how he feels about going into a new decade of his life and after the slight panic came, he said he is really happy and ready for whatever it brings. Our kids are all at different stages and they keep us young. Dan is only a couple of years older than me, but I always forget he is older. He gets along so well with my friends and family that I feel like he has been with me forever and is my age all the time.

I can’t wait for all of his celebrations this month and we already kicked it off earlier this week by going to Hope Breakfast Bar. It is always nice when Dylan offers to watch the kids so we can get a quick date and I am very thankful for that and happy Dan acknowledges that even though Dylan doesn’t have much to offer he does offer free babysitting for us always. I also love that Dylan always offers without us really asking and I know that means a lot because the two littles can be a handful at times.

Today is Dylan’s last day of being a Middle Schooler, like how did this year go by so fast?! He is excited and all they will be doing is playing games and signing yearbooks. It is also his last day riding the school bus and I think he is more sad about that than anything because he loves riding the bus and getting all the gossip he typically wouldn’t get while in school. Once he gets home he said he really wants to go to Target and then get ice cream, I love how easy it is to make him happy so we will be definitely be doing that later.

Somehow we are in some heat wave with being in the 90s so early in June. We typically get nice 70/80s weather sometimes even 60s but it is so hot out and I hate going out when it is this hot out. Having kids though I don’t really get the option to stay in because they both want to go out so I will try to go to story time in the park this morning and a mom from my MOMS Club invited people over to her pool so I might try to go that because Logan has turned into a fish and loves swimming.

I love the series that the History Channel has going on, The Men That Built America, The Food That Built America, The Cars That Built America, and now the Titans That Built America. My favorite period in America is the Guilded Age so watching these shows makes me so happy to see my favorite time in America shown so much. I really love that Dan also loves this series so tonight we will be getting popcorn and watching the Titans That Built America.

Also I think I might be using my Instagram more it’s adventuresofjan25 I don’t post often but I aim to post at least my first picture this weekend lololol.

On repeat every night is Bright Eyes-June on the West Coast, I loved Bright Eyes during high school and college. Summer nights remind me a lot of walking alone during the summer, going party to party, and just listening to them on my green iPod mini I named Sodapop.
