You know the fun doesn't stop over here!!! We planned a fun bowling day with Uncle Ryan for both Cashy and Uncle Ryan's Birthdays! Uncle Ryan's Birthday is coming up  next! These 2 are a lot a like!! Sushines! Life of the parties! Ocd carpet vaccum lines! The list could go on of lots of little similarities!  lol Cashy loves his Uncle Ryan so much! When gpa John left us Uncle Ryan has stepped into the role as the closest thing to gpa john for Cash! Cashy loves to hear Uncle Ryan talk cause it reminds  him of gpa John! There are so many other little mannerisms too! We sure love you Uncle Ryan! and we sure love celebrating you too!

We had a fabulous fun time Bowling! It is always a hoot! 

So much fun!!

Honz beat us all! In fact he played the best game of his life! Over 200! Way to go honz! You were on Fire!!!! Those pins were flying! lol

After bowling Honzs wanted to stop by to grab his golf clubs from the warehouse and little did we know he walked into his warehouse flooding! The swamp cooler had been leaking since Friday! Ugh! I loved seeing my kids jump right in to help their daddy! In fact they were fighting over what to do to help their daddy! lol Penny and Cash swept water out of daddy's shop for over an hour! Honz used his new equipment to climb on the roof to check the swamp  cooler! That was cool to see that new toy in action! lol Before we left the landlord had come and was already going to get working on getting an air conditioner tech out there! So hopefully no more  leaking come Monday! Dang it! Ugh! Man were we glad we stopped by! That would have been even more terrible to walk in on Monday! It never slows down in our little world! 

Last stop for the day was to celebrate bff Mel!! Kip through her a fun birthday party! Hotdog on Stick was there! Yum! It was such a chill  relaxed night! Lots of eating, chatting and laughing! The kids sure had fun playing too! Happy Birthday Mel! I'm so happy you were born!

This was our first time! I have wanted to take my Cashy boy since I found out I was pregnant with a boy! lol And for whatever reason it has taken us 10 years to get here! It did not disappoint! lol As the weeks got closer we found out that our friends the Johnsons, Facers and Hilsabecks were all going to Monster Jam too! We didn't have seats together but we planned a to eat together before heading down! Sadly I failed to get a pic at dinner with the Facers and Johnsons and after dinner we quickly stopped at Dairy Queen! That's where I remembered to get some pics! Sorry Facers! Cause we knew once we got down there we would not see each other in the mayhem! lol The Hilsbecks didn't meet for dinner but we actually did see  them at Monster Jam! We just happened to walk into together and our seats were fairly close to each other! So crazy!

Oh Team Hilsabeck! Oh how we love you guys! My heart skips a beat when I see you guys! These were our besties at the singles ward 15 yrs ago! We now have 8 kids together! We keep in touch through fb and have seen each other around randomly around town! But life gets busy and moves on! But this day was meant to be! We 1st saw them a Blake's baptism we had earlier today! Then found out they were going to monster jam! Just happened to walk into together at the Thomas and Mac! What are the chances! Rt! So we snapped a few pics before it got started! Then realized our seats  were just a section away from each other!! So crazy! So fun! These 2 make my heart so happy! 

Monster  Jam was freakn insane! So much fun!!! So many action shots! lol

Our jaws were literally on the floor! lol We were in complete awe and amazement of what we were watching! lol

The kids had so much fun tasting them! They kept giggling and some they almost spit out they were so gross! lol Then we headed over to the 3 story Ross!! The kids had a blast in there shopping! That place was packed! The line was so long but so worth it! lol Then for dinner we ate at the 2 story Canes! This was life for my kids! They love canes and loved that it was 2 stories lol!
