My Girl

Today was the 50th day of Kindergarten for my sweet Chloe Bug!

She got to celebrate by dressing up in 50s clothes, dancing the hand jive, and having coke floats at school. I was so happy I was able to go help out some in her classroom- I love the way her face lights up when she sees I’m there. 💖 I was just telling Travis how grateful I am for opportunities like these! 

We slipped out early for a little secret girls only time at Starbucks—we didn’t even TELL the boys 😉

Cake pop and milk to celebrate her very first report card! I’m so proud of her! Salted caramel mocha for me ☕️

It was so fun to get our own little table and read her new library book together, go over her word wall words, and talk about her day! https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1g9xnkWJLN_XIBfCadJ9NMohtZM-THPsu
We finished the afternoon with grocery shopping and a quick visit to Walgreens for 90% off makeup (2 new lipsticks for us both 😘💋ðŸĪŠ, sunscreens (totally set for next summer!), and plenty of other random items we didn’t need 🙈 oops! 😉 
While we were gone, Travis did ALL the laundry, took care of the boys, and cleaned the living room—I’m thankful for how well he loves us!!! And TRUST it was badly needed!https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1AwNkU0P4-yfdydlWm4M7tmQHw3301aTh
On a side note- anybody else already completely overrun with Halloween candy?! ðŸ˜ģ I’ve got to hide this stuff from myself! 
Anyway—-
Over the past 13 years, Trav and I have finally (almost 😉) mastered (hmmm...maybe I should say kinda figured out!!!) this team effort! It would DEF not be possibly without God’s example of love and grace and His perfect family design. We are learning and growing together more each day. Not every day is easy—but EVERY day is worth the effort- for each other, for our children, for the building of His Kingdom. So thankful that God can take our totally imperfect efforts and turn them into beautiful days that bring such JOY! 
All the kiddos were in bed by 7 and now it’s time to grab a couple pieces of that Halloween candy and relax! Yay!!!
Love, Laura
