Friday Fun

Filed Under: Family, Photography

Today’s my 26th Birthday. Just crazy. I am not sure what our plans are this weekend. We may go to the strawberry festival, not sure though. I wish we had big birthday plans, but nothings planned yet.

I just love, love, love this photo.

Favorite Photo from May, Little Somethings: Warmth, Foto Friday: On & On, Favorite Photo from the week.

Photobucket Skywatch Friday

Another photo from the carnival last weekend. Live Every Moment: Vibrant Colors

They had where you could make your own slushy’s. I had fun mixing the colors.

Live Every Moment

I took the boys to the park today and met some friends.  We met the people from Parents as Teachers and she set up stations for the kids to paint with. Dustyn had a blast.

Carsyn hung out in the stroller and watched everyone.

We came across these ducks. So cute.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.

So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.
