Phew.

We had a big busy weekend. Friday night was a baseball game with Matt's parents. The girls had a good time and the fireworks were nice (and loud ... Kate made me cover her ears).
Saturday was Brielle's 9th birthday! She was so excited, opened all her presents with the highest level of enthusiasm, and we had a little birthday/father's day party at my mom's house for her in the evening. Earlier in the day we took her to Target to spend some money she had received, and she bought the Disney Playlist cd, which has been played thoroughly since then. It was all very exciting.
And then yesterday, of course, was Father's day. I got up early and made the coffee cake Matt wanted, and he opened all his gifts from the girls (instead of one big thing this year, we each got him something individually, which they LOVED). It was nice. We went to church, came home and had grilled chicken and cake ... I think it was a good day. (minus the thunder storm we had while we were outside cooking the chicken ... it seriously poured and the sky was grey and the thunder was VERY loud.)

Now we have our first week of summer vacation. I told the girls by Friday our house should be spotless. I wonder if that will actually happen?
