The boys are here! Now on to the fun. I thought it would be a easier to do a week in review for all of our summer adventures. Week two in the past:
Sunday:
- Chilling at home
Monday:
- Chilling at home -- three days in a row, but it felt so nice
Tuesday:
- Winchester Mystery House -- It's only about 15 minutes away from our house. I had previously visited 6 years ago on vacation. I thought the boys would enjoy it after our interesting visit to Fallingwater. We did the mansion tour and the behind-the-scenes tour. I love examining all the of the different rooms and gardens. I love that house! I think the boys enjoyed our time.
Wednesday: Fourth of July!
- Fireworks in Cupertino -- We didn't want to fight the crowds to get to the bay, so we decided to head about 15 minutes south to Cupertino. We sat in a nice park with our picnic blanket, card games, and snacks. The fireworks were great. And the best part was that we got home in 30 minutes.
Thursday:
- Running errands without the car -- The boys and I took a nice walk to the bank and then to Target.
- Lunch at Gumbas -- We grabbed a pizza at the Italian restaurant two blocks from the house. Yummy!
Friday:
- Pool afternoon
- Movie -- We ventured out to see The Amazing Spiderman.
Saturday:
- Library visit -- We grabbed some great books and movies.
- Dropped J off at SFO -- He's flying to Romania for a week for a business trip. While the cat's away, the mice will play. Not really... But I will miss him.
