Thankful Thursday

Another week, another list. :) Things I'm thankful for this week...

1. Last Friday. Asher, Micah and I decided we should do at least *something* over spring break. Since Asher didn't have work last Friday, we headed up to Old Town for lunch. After that, we ventured over to Pinball Jones because we'd not been there before and wanted to just check it out...

Yup, we're not great at pinball, lol. We tried some of the other games, too...not great at those either. ;) But. We had a good time trying and cheering each other on. And then we got some fudge and headed home. It wasn't the most exciting afternoon but it was a nice little break with my guys.

2. Ice cream. So, the latest season of Ted Lasso started last week. (Yay!) In preparation, we'd rewatched the previous seasons and splurged by ordering some Biscuits with the Boss ice cream from Jeni's (along with a number of other flavors, lol). (The Biscuits with the Boss flavor was a collaboration with the show featuring the shortbread biscuits the title character bakes for his boss.) Obviously, we loved all the ice cream. But we also enjoyed the dry ice it was packaged in...

(This was on St. Patrick's Day, so Micah added the food coloring.)

3. Car maintenance. Okay. I'm not actually thankful for car maintenance issues, but I'm thankful that we're able to handle unexpected car maintenance needs. In the past couple of weeks, we've had a bit of a streak going with various things needed on each of our vehicles...new spark plugs, new ignition coil, new power steering hoses, new tail light housing, and a new head light and tail light in one vehicle...new battery, tire rotation, and oil change in another...and new front brakes and rotors in the third. Fun times. Like I said, just thankful we're in a position where we can deal with all of these things and thankful for the three different shops around town that helped us out. Bleh.

4. Light sabers. So, Asher decided to buy himself some light sabers. Obviously, it was necessary to test them out in the front yard...

Thankful my guys are still boys at heart. :)

5. One more campus tour. Today, Asher and I did a campus tour at the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley. It's just about 40 minutes from home and is known for its education programs. Asher's already been accepted there but had never actually toured the campus, so the information and tour were useful.

(The tour, though, did require us to leave home a bit earlier than Asher's used to being up, lol. He wasn't thrilled but did cooperate to let me take his picture before we started.) Thankful to have yet another campus tour under my belt and that UNC seems to be a good fit for Asher.

And that's my list. Happy Thursday!
