We have a quiet week this week, the bigs have science camp and the littles have 2 days of preschool, we will probably go for a trip to our favorite water park, but mostly will be hanging around the house and hopefully de-cluttering and getting a few projects done around the house. Aww the beauty of summer daze….
My birthday on Friday was lots of fun, we went out to dinner and dancing with friends who surprised me with the cutest Unicorn birthday cake. It was adorable and the strawberry cake was delicious. I also held a fun little giveaway on my facebook page for a bottle of wine!! I had lots of entries and will decide the winner today!
