Birthdays, Girl Scouts, and Mavericks

Wednesday, June 8







John and the kids surprised me by bringing lunch to me at work today. Jack was very interested in my keyboard, and Mara drew a picture for me on my whiteboard. That evening, we met Paul and Michelle and their kids for dinner at Rainforest Cafe.

We've been watching the Dallas Mavericks making their playoff run in the NBA finals this year. It's been neat to see the World Series, the Super Bowl, and the NBA finals all played locally this past year. It's also been nice to see the Rangers and Mavericks, both teams that I've rooted for since the early '90s, do well this year.

We went to Steak 'n' Shake for dinner tonight where Mara enjoyed a steakburger and a cookies & cream shake.

Today was a busy day. We started off with a birthday party for our friends' 3-year-old twins, and then Mara and I met up with the Girl Scouts for a service project. We decorated pots and then added the plants we've been growing the past couple of months for the residents of a retirement home. Afterward, we went and celebrated Mindy and Ben's birthdays.

We took the kids to Target today, and we put Jack beside Mara in the kids cart. As Mara pointed out, this was only his second time riding in the cart, and even though he may not look like it in the picture, he really likes being beside Mara in the cart. We went home and watch the Mavericks win the NBA championship later that evening.
