My son asked, “What’s ‘Wells Fargo’?” as we passed by the large building while running errands. I replied, “A bank.”

He asked, “What’s a bank?” I was a bit shocked and not sure what to say. How can a teenager not know what a bank is?  I calmly said, “A financial lending institution.”

His response…..”OOOOh! OK

He was completely serious….until he realized how funny that conversation was.

We laughed our butts off. I love my family! <3

Sebastian's 18th Birthday Dinner

Happy Birthday Bash! You are not usually camera shy. What's up?

I think Bash is showing off his abs. Colton is quite impressed

Can't forget to get Zac in the pics.

Our family tradition is that the birthday person gets to pick out what they want for their birthday dinner and what they want for dessert. Bash chose Totino's Party Pizzas, Ceasar salad, and cheesecake. Yum! We had fun eating messy pizzas and telling jokes and remembering our favorite, or craziest, birthday memories!

Sebastian's Birthday Shopping, Dinner, and a Movie With Mom Day

Sebastian will be turning 18 this week!
Our family tradition is that the birthday child gets to go to dinner and a movie with Mom or Dad.
We were a bit hungry when we started out so we ate first. He chose Long John Silver. Yum! Excellent and cost efficient choice!
He wanted to shop at Spencer's and Hot Topic so we went to the local mall. We had fun wandering around, looking at stuff, and being able to take our time and just hang out together. He picked out a couple sets of plugs and tapers for his ears. He also bought a mustache t-shirt and a mustache phone case. Can you tell we like mustache things around here?
Later, we saw The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. I cried at this one, too. We liked the movie...but hated that it had a non-ending.
We had a wonderful time spending the day together, just the two of us.
