12

i signed the kids up to be a part of the birthday club at baskin robbins ... it's been 4 or 5 years now ... and they email me the coupon for a free scoop 2 or 3 days before the birthday and it's good for a week. i received elyssa's last thursday ... so it expires today. thursdays are usually reserved for eating dinner at the Shaw's (we've been doing that for ... ever) and tonight andy and i are headed to the temple ... making going to the ice cream store out of the question. i hate to miss out on free ice cream (even if i have to buy ice cream for everybody else)! SO ... i excused the girls from school and we went to Baskin Robbins and then i took them back. it was fun and yummy!!

goal #22 - do more fun stuff with my kids ... even though it's not always easy and/or convenient!

Happy happy Birthday Lyssa Mae! We love ya! What a fun mom you are Em. We all know you have to make exceptions when Baskin Robbins 'free' is lingering in the air...
