Birthday!!
This past Saturday was Makenzie's 4th birthday! She was very excited to be having a party, but she kept telling people that she was turning 2. And that is ok with me, because I would be fine with her staying little forever.
Her party was a lot of fun. We had tons of people over for it on Sunday afternoon from Jimmy's family and from Makenzie's mom's family. She had the best time and got more gifts than I've ever seen at a child's birthday! She is very loved.
Sunday was the first day of the Summer that hit 100 degrees. It was super hot. And the fact that the grill caught on fire didn't make anything easier! Also the fact that there was a new trampoline outside didn't help either! New trampoline=kids pressuring adults to jump on it=sweaty adults. So all together it was a great, hot, sweaty, fun-filled weekend.
Sunday night after everyone left we decided to take the boat out for a little while. We haven't spent all that much time on the water this Summer, so it was nice. We've just been so busy and taking the boat out really ends up being a chore at the end of the day. We love being on the water so much and have resolved to play in it more often.
This week is a wild week at work...we hosted a girl from our new office in Chicago yesterday to train her on some things. Then tomorrow and Thursday is our Quarterly Compliance Meeting with LFG and we're having all of our Broker's from across the country come here to be 'compliant'. Tomorrow is golf and dinner, Thursday is meetings and lunches/dinners and then Friday is my company's Quarterly Meeting. Combine all of that with having friends in from out of town and what do you get? Chaos!! I'm definitely looking forward to the weekend!
