This week (Friday) we leave on our trip to Colorado!\u00a0 I’m very aware of how much I have n my to-do list… and it’s stressing me out.\u00a0 Eeeks!<\/p>\n
But, I never did update you on our date last week to the fancy restaurant:\u00a0 we went to The Capitol Grill and it was AMAZING.\u00a0 For appetizer I had the English clam chowder soup (num!) and then for my entree I ordered the pan seared salmon and it was seriously the best salmon I’ve ever had.\u00a0 It was soft and buttery when I ate it.\u00a0 I know that sounds super weird, but it wasn’t.\u00a0 It was fantastic.\u00a0 They also gave us a side of mashed potatoes and green beans to share at our table and those were also.\u00a0 Ah.mazing. Then, for dessert I ordered the flourless chocolate cake which was teeny tiny on the plate, but so rich it was like eating cheesecake of pure chocolate.\u00a0 It kind of makes my mouth water thinking back on it.\u00a0 Ha!\u00a0 So, all in all, it was soooo good.\u00a0 I’m not sure we would venture to go there again on any normal day (we went on restaurant week where they offer discounted meals to help promote different venues and encourage those who wouldn’t normally eat there to try it out–like us) because it’s FAR too pricey.\u00a0 But it sure was fun to try it out!<\/p>\n
In other news Chloe started her french horn lessons this past week.\u00a0 It’s been a slow process of learning how to get her sound to hold steady on a a note… and there have been tears and frustration sprinkled in there.\u00a0 But I’m happy to report that she is making slow progress.\u00a0 She has a lesson every Tuesday night for the next 6 weeks, so it will be a great jump start before she is with all the other kids in band class in the Fall.<\/p>\n
Josiah had his Birthday party on Friday (8 years old!) and I have a bunch of pictures that I’ll post tomorrow.\u00a0 It was INSANELY hot that day.\u00a0 The temp was something like 96 but it felt like 120 degrees out.\u00a0 Yikes!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
