My Day and His Day

Yesterday I had a really good day with my girls. We spent the morning testing out a new slip-n-slide in the backyard (well, them - not me!), then they played inside while I made my first ever batch of homemade laundry detergent from this recipe. I also worked on some preparations for Avery's upcoming 4th birthday party, including beginning the first paper mache layer on a ballon pinata. Then to finish off the day the girls and I babysat for some friends who needed a night out, which meant I watched 4 kids ages 3, 2, 1, and 6 months for two hours. Avery was a great helper and we had a good time. I had a good and productive day!

Then, Merrick got home at about 9:45pm. He had spent the day a little differently. A few hours of work in the morning and then the rest of the long day was spent here:

Golfing. Yep, golfing at Whistling Straits. Which is where the PGA Championships will be this year. Pretty much the nicest golf course in Wisconsin! And he went with some of his Kohls coworkers and it was all paid for by the vendors. Free lunch, 18 holes, which took 5 hours to play, and the warmest day of the year so far. The whole course is right up and down the lakefront!! Lucky guy huh? I won't even tell you how much that place costs. Merrick has gotten really into golf since we moved here to Milwaukee and plays quite a bit each summer. This was SO fun for him!

Well, our days were definitely different, but we both had good ones so that's all that matters.
