Well, another birthday season has come and gone. Kimmie and I started calling it birthday season because of the stress it brings me with Payton and Katrina's birthdays being 5days apart and so close to Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Payton turned 16 this year and we had a great day of celebrating. We went to sushi at this uber cool place in roseville called Ninja Sushi. They made a big deal about payton and gave him an awesome dessert and a T-shirt. Afterwards we told him we were going to take him to some arcades, just me and Dad. Secretly his good friend Shannon was going to be there to surprise him for his first date. It was a super cute idea! She ran up while we were walking in and put her arms on his shoulders and he just kept walking and talking....he thought it was me! It was hilarious, boy was he surprised. She brought two other friends and they all played miniature golf with Jay and I a few holes behind them. He had a great time! The next day was his big birthday bash and we had over 20 kids here. Whew!
Next up was Katrina. She was just turning 14 so we didn't make a big deal out of it, haha! She just wanted her favorite beans and rice so we took her to Casa Ramos to eat. She too had a party and had about 17 kids over. My kids have too many friends!
It was exhausting and on top of everything I got selected for jury duty and had to deal with going to that in the middle of it all. Thankfully I have an amazing husband who steps up to the plate and does way more than his fair share when it's needed. He is such a blessing in my life! Truly grateful for my family 💞
