5 on Friday

1. We celebrated my cousin getting married this weekend up in Rochester, MN. I love that I don't worry about traveling with the girls anymore and they handle longer car rides like champs. We all had fun at the wedding and were very tired the next day. The girls loved dancing, and it was Ellie who asked to leave the dance to go to bed!

2. We celebrated my birthday on Tuesday. Nothing like spending the evening at the dance studio! Nick and the girls surprised me with flowers, a new bag (to take books to the beach/pool in come November) and an ice cream cake. We went all out for dinner with frozen pizza! It was perfect.

3. It is starting to get cooler out! Which means candles! I love scented candles. Nick is sensitive to spices in candles, so we are slightly limited- but we make the best of it.

4. I am co-chairing the United Way committee for work this year. It is fun, stressful and a lot of work. We had my department's kick-off meeting on Monday. A couple co-workers and myself presented. I think it went pretty well and based on the numbers we made an impact. Now let's just hope that the rest of the campaign comes together and we are successful in meeting (or exceeding) our goal.

5. Ellie went in for her follow-up appointment with the ENT on Thursday. The ear is healing well and everything looks good there, but she failed her hearing test so the doctor things she has fluid behind the eardrum. Antibiotics it is. Let's hope that fixed the problem.
