One-on-one dates with the girls hadn’t happened in some time so we made it a priority these past few weeks. Each of the girls did something completely different than we have ever done in the past…each idea was fabulous and I have a feeling that their will be some idea stealing for the next one-on-one dates!

Harper and Justin went to MusePaint Bar and painted a beautiful mountain scape.  Harper was over the moon the entire evening constantly thanking Justin and me (for the idea:)!  Her appreciation and gratefulness of the night makes my heart explode. 

Emerson and I attended a theatrical performance at Madison High School of Much Ado About Nothing, a play by Shakespeare.  While the play itself wasn’t our favorite story line, the acting was fantastic and we had a great time just her and I enjoying the performance on a warm rainy night.  We explored the nearby halls for a few minutes during intermission and it brought back memories of when I attended Madison just a few years back.  It is crazy to think that in less than three years Avery and Emerson will be at Madison and I might just be in that theatre seat watching Emerson perform!

(Mom forgot to take any pictures!)

Avery and I went to ZavaZone, a trampoline and indoor adventure park.  To her disbelief, I was just as excited about going as she was.  We challenged ourselves to obstacles and put our core and upper body strength to the test. I am ecstatic to report that both of us are strong and in shape!  We were both so sore the next day using muscles that we don’t ordinarily use.  Working up an appetite, we finished our night at Pot Belly with some sandwiches and a shared cookie.
