Ninja Rope
Talking of good climate, we’ve had a hammock swing beneath this tree for a very long time now and simply switched it to a ninja rope that the boys acquired for Christmas. Birch likes to swing on it, and Mazen has formally climbed to the highest! It’s so exhausting on the palms. I want some weight lifting gloves to present it a real take a look at. It’s more durable than it seems to be.

And who’re we kidding – I solely go to basketball video games for the ice cream! Really it’s Thomas who began this ritual. Each single recreation he goes to he will get a Ben & Jerry’s simply after halftime. I used to be joking with him that the individuals who sit by our common seats in all probability know him as “ice cream man” and make bets on when he’ll come again with a cone and guess what flavors he acquired this time. When you’re questioning, Caramel Blondie and Cookie Dough!

We made this an entire occasion with costumes and a themed get together earlier than. I hosted a 90s identify that tune. My outfit was extra sporty / preppy / scrunchie 90s with my Bayside one-shoulder T-shirt that makes an look each few years. I additionally had mild up scrunchies that have been so enjoyable I’ll be carrying them to each decade get together! And this fanny pack that I acquired clear so I may additionally put on it to clear-bag concert events.

New Finds
Some new NA finds! I used to be sucked into an advert by the net store Zero Proof and acquired some new NA drinks. I’ll report again on how all of them are!

Sipping it with some Shrimp Scampi and salad for dinner.
