Today started with tons of work - we painted the back exterior of the house, and tore up the carpet from the basement stairs, and Chris did the yardwork. Then it was time for Jimmy's family to come pick up Bella on their way home from their trip, and in that process we each traded two kids. Olive and Lucy are spending the night down with them, and they left Brock and Luke with us. They have all girls, and we have all boys plus a tiny sister. We took the kids to see the Flow Rider and then to eat and then to the mall. It was fun, and now the boys are watching Chasing Mavericks while I put Penelope down. Think I'll go fall into bed after this!!

Yesterday

Yesterday was Chris Barragan is SRIRACHA Nice Guy Day! It was his half birthday, and his usual birthday celebrations are kind of a letdown since they're on Christmas, so I let everyone know to send him some love. Friends sent bottles of sriracha, and sriracha keychains and chapstick and socks. I bought him a sriracha t-shirt but he's lost a bunch of weight lately so we gotta return that one. The kids and I visited him at work and brought him balloons and a lunch of street tacos and a bottle of sriracha, and I even made some sriracha cupcakes. It was fun! The kids played with their buddies after lunch. And then we ended the day with Chris coaching his last game of the season, and a pizza party with his team. Another happy day.
