Lunch date with Alan

Alan was working in Mesa today so we met him in "downtown historic Mesa," which sounds so hilarious but is actually becoming a very cute little area! There are some non-chain little lunch spots like the one we hit today- Sweet Cakes, which was so yummy! The Arizona Museum for Youth in the same neighborhood, so after saying goodbye to Daddy the boys and I hit the play area for a few hours. Now we are exhausted and headed for bed. The heat really wears you out! So does hanging out with Will for any extended amount of time. Which reminds me of a comment Alan made yesterday, that I must record her for posterities sake. I reminded him that the Father and Son's camp-out is coming up next month (about which I am so excited!! I will have an entire 24 hours all to myself. I'm honestly already making lists of ideas of what I want to do with my break!) He looked at me and said, "Isn't it a Father and Son camp-out?" The tone of his voice said it all. Taking both boys camping will be no small task, but I made sure to inform him that as his son, Will is entitled to a spot in the tent. It's part of his birthright to be able to go on the annual trek, and go he will. I will make sure of that!
