Another week, another creepy find in the back of the pantry... Just kidding, we normally have a good idea of what food we have available, so imagine our surprise when Scott pulled this bad boy (and then two friends!) out from the pantry this week.
The day the potatoes made their appearance at our home was a funny one. The kids met me at the garage door as I got home, and were giggling non-stop. They wouldn't tell me what was so funny, and wanted me to see for myself. We were all quite taken with and impressed by the fact that we had been harboring a potato family that clearly wanted to run free.
Ava decided to take the potatoes to school for an extra credit presentation to her science class. People from other classes even came over to admire them. I told her to let people know that we generally don't have this kind of experiment growing in our house, lol.
Saturday night was a nice surprise night out, as Scott and I had a date-night, while Ava watched G for a few hours at home. Hooray for an in-home babysitter! We were finalizing summer plans (camp, summer school, Summer Uproar, and Summer Power) for the kids this weekend, and I realized we definitely cannot do it all without Ava chipping in and helping with her brother. Thank goodness for Ava!

G's been behaving so well in school that we rewarded both kids with a trip to Carbone's for dinner on Tuesday night. Ava and I got there a little late since it was baton night, but that gave G a chance to get his arm painted with The Flash. One of his other kindergarten friends was there, and she ended up having Spiderman painted on her face. It was a super hero kind of night!
The end of the week found us lounging around at home, taking it easy. As we were heating up pizzas for dinner on Friday night, Ava and I took it easy on the couch, and I was able to grab a selfie with both of us in it.
