This weekend is a busy one. We invited some of Amber's friends (Jackson, Camilla, Dora) over to swim and for bbq. Jackson's Dad bought over Panda Express enough for everyone and maybe more. We played freeze dance, Alice had her girl time with Kylie and Caitlin and Ashley was a good sport keeping up with the later hours. Amber is so happy spending time with her friends. At the end of the night, she told her dad and me separately that she had fun.
The next morning, we took the kids to the Santa Barbara museum to see the butterfly exhibit. There was traffic going there and we didnt arrive until noon and we left a little after 9. We went straight to the butterfly museum and met with our friends there. All the kids enjoyed meeting the butterflies. We went to eat a late lunch at On the Alley and the fish and chip was very good. Amber was so tired that she couldnt continue to walk. It was a very beautiful day and the breeze was so cold.
The kids are on a point system with Scott and they are accumulating points by doing laundry, cleaning the play room and removing Scott's white hair. Adam is very motivated and uses his points for picking what and where to eat for dinner. Adam saves but Alice is very short sighted. She simply says she doesnt care and gets what ever she likes because she wants it.
Going to Santa Barbara was fun and I am enjoying these day trips with them. Its always nice to be able to travel for the day and sleep in your own bed. Ashley did phenomenal on this car ride!
