Well, crazy news time, but we're moving to Texas! I've been interviewing at a new company, and accepted a job this past week! We'll be moving to Austin, and we're pretty excited! Obviously the kids can't wait to go to Buc-ees, and who can blame them? Look how good we all look! It's really too bad I never got Jelly a shirt... or collar or something.
On Monday Brooke took in her second big project this year. This time everyone was assigned a national symbol, and she got the rose. She was really excited to give her report, and it went great!
We went to celebrate the new job on Monday night. Whenever I think of going out to eat as a family, I always think of Casa Mariachi, so that's where we headed. Winry ordered the purest of Mexican food options, mac and cheese. Grayson got a quesadilla, and wouldn't eat it when it came, so he ended up popping up (as in, traveled under the table) next to Winry to eat her fries that she didn't want.
I ordered an horchata with my food, and it was hard to get Grayson to give it a try, but once he finally did he just stole the whole thing from me!
And here's the whole family together!
Monica took the kids to the park this past week. The new one on main street to be specific. They have this really cool slide made of rollers, and it looks like the kids had a great time on it.
Michael, Oriah and Niki all came out to visit this past week. They came to continue doing work at Michael's dad's house, but spent a bit of time here as well. We had a lot of fun getting to hang out with them.
I got a call from Igor on Wednesday asking if I'd be available Thursday or Friday to get together. I ended up having a free window to come meet him at TopGolf, and he brought along his developers from India and Bali! It was cool to get to meet them. In the end I didn't even hit a golf ball, but we did some program debug and ate some food.
And I came back to have cake for Niki's birthday! Here she is with the kids.
Technically I did hold up everyone, but I wasn't TOO late for cake. We had lemon raspberry, and it was terrific! Thank goodness Niki had a birthday.
I don't think I've ever seen something leave Grayson's mouth so fast as his first bite of cake. He did NOT like this one, so we let him have some Sour Patch Kids. He was being really cute, he'd pull one out and say "this one is Sour Patch Orange!" or "I love Sour Patch Yellow!" If anyone needs someone to name flavors for them, let me know.
There's been work out in the garden this week, and the weather has been pretty good, so the kids have been enjoying playing in the backyard with Monica. Winry has been flipping rocks and looking for roly-polies, and boy did she ever find them! She did find a spider once, and didn't love that one though...
I'm guessing it happened when my sisters were out here, but the keep your elbows off the table song is back! Grayson LOVES it, and loves to just lay his arms across the table and wait for people to sing it to him.
We got a new vacuum because the brush on ours stopped spinning. Apparently the new one is really fun or something... Brooke seems to enjoy it at least.
