Fab 5 Friday...

Oh, Friday...how do I love thee? Let me count the ways...

Yes, we've once again made it to another Friday! Woohoo! Give it up for Friday! Super excited to have made it through another week! And since I have much to get done today...let's crank this bad boy out!

1. Manuela's Birthday. We had the pleasure of celebrating Manuela's birthday last week with a beautiful coffee morning at her home. Good friends, gorgeous weather, lovely coffee and food, and, of course, the birthday girl!

Happy Birthday, Manuela!

2. PTO BBQ. The PTO Fall BBQ was last weekend...on another gorgeous day. I had collected a lot of the items for the "American" baskets. We put together two great baskets chocked full of yummy American goodies!

I love walking around the bbq and looking at the ticket boxes (the American baskets are extremely popular) and listening to the kids as they decide where their tickets will go. It's quite entertaining to listen to their rationale. We were lucky to win a voucher to Mr. India and a voucher to Blue Cactus in the drawings. Yay us! And, my boys were super excited that their mom guessed the closest to the actual number of Citibank customers here in Poland and won the signed Robert Lewandoski soccer ball. (Yes, that upped my mom status significantly!)

Smiles and sunshine!

Anyways...a fun way to spend a few hours on a Saturday afternoon for sure!

3. Grayson Away. Grayson has just returned from his 4 day class trip to Nowy Targ, Poland where he climbed a rockface, rappelled off a bridge into a raft waiting in a river, rappelled off the roof of a multi-story building, participated in many team building activities - and basically just had a great time! The boys are very lucky to have these fantastic class trips!

Look at that serious face before - and then him clowning around!

4. Dinner with Caleb. With Grayson being away, that meant Caleb got to choose a place for dinner one night...and he chose Blue Cactus. (Probably so he could Pokemon hunt on the way!) Cold San Miguel on tap for the parents, quesadillas for the kid - and we were all happy!

He loves his quesadillas!

5. Coffee. A big shout out to Chrissie who brought me Starbucks coffee on Thursday morning! A super fantastic surprise and a great way to start the morning!

In the cute fall cup and everything!

Okay...that's all I've got for today! And that's really all I've got time for! I'm thinking I may be moving the blog in the upcoming weeks...and changing some things up! Will keep you updated on that!

Smile and enjoy your weekend!!!
