No Mexican for us tonight... just a slice of American life, our life on a Friday. The day started out comically.. Hannah was having a bad teenage morning...nothing to wear....no clothes... need to go shopping mantra followed up by no milk to drink and peanut butter toast falling on her settled upon outfit right before we were leaving for school. She scrambled and ended up with a wrinkled t-shirt on her way into high school. Funny. So, her day went on... a Friday with no teenage social plans.. oh my... then she approached her driving test. The test that would set her destiny into true teenage life. Although parallel parking was a FAIL... she passed!!! Watch out Des Moines... it's a five-day count down until Hannah has a license to drive. Pictured here is a teenager after swimming practice... proud as can be!
It was a beautiful night to watch Katy playing softball. Great temperature, sun blaring. Great conversation in the stands. So I was telling a mom a story about Hannah accidentally applying for a lifeguard position in Illinois vs. West Des Moines and she exclaimed, "what the Front Door"... wow, brilliant. A kid-friendly way to say WTF... LOVE. And yes, it's true... Hannah had a blonde moment and she is now for hire this summer!
We ended the night at the Tavern Pizza with Grama Jane. It was entertaining. Girls were full of conversation, fighting to see who had the floor next. Katy had told Grama earlier, "our family is active"...we talked about Hannah and driving... to Elie going to Adventureland with the band and how the band kids are actually cool, not dorky and Katy chiming in about some long story about anything. A true slice of family heaven. Three girls, one Dad, one Mom and one Grama... all Happy.
Happy is.
