I'm raising future yuppies, no seriously

Since it's pretty much a million degrees outside from sun up until a few hours after sun down and water gets dull after a while I have found a super yummy cool treat for myself, Starbuck's Tazo Passion Tea Lemonade. It's sooooooo yummy and I feel refreshed afterward, and when I say refreshed I mean I feel like my brain hasn't just melted into a pile of goo. There's only one problem with my yummy caffeine free treat:

I'm lucky if I get half of it. Both of the kiddos LOVE this drink, and I don't mind them having it since it's caffeine free. Jill even cries when it's empty (I cry on the inside as well) and poor Aaron is lucky if he can pry the cup out of Jill's hands long enough to take two sips.

So if you're keeping score on if my kids will end up being yuppie snobs, tack this one on the snob side, oh and add that they now say "bravo" after any musical number.

PS: Happy Birthday to my favorite Aunt that lives in South Carolina! Hope it's a great day Aunt Eunice!!!

Thanksgiving Thursday

This week I am thankful for:

• Scott and his awesome coffee skills, especially on a day like today when Aaron thought it would be a good idea to wake up at 5:45.

• Scott's support in everything.

• Aaron being such a big helper! He helps us pick up the playroom every night. I completely plan to use this to my advantage until he doesn't think it's a game or begins to demand an allowance.

• Jill's dramatics, sometimes. Example: We were watching Beauty and the Beast and after any musical number she would clap and yell (seriously) "Bravo! Bravo!" Where she learned that, I have no idea but it's hilarious.

• Mitch reminding me that Jill is not a snob because she says "Bravo!", she would be a snob if she said "Bravissimo!".
  

• Small inflatable pools in the backyard. Seriously, it's too hot for anything else.

• Amazing family all around us.

• A super fun day at Animal Kingdom on Sunday with our friends Bob and Vanessa!

• Starbucks Tazo Passion Tea Lemonade, in the words of Kai-Lan, you make my heart feel super happy!

• The kind people at Education.com for promoting my post on Tuesday, it was totally unexpected!
  

What are you thankful for this week?
