πππ€ WHAT. A. WEEKEND. π€ππ
Busy? That's an understatement. Exhausting? ABSOLUTELY. But was it one of the BEST weekends we've had in a long time? WITHOUT A DOUBT! π₯Ήβ€οΈ
This weekend I switched things up a little! I traded flowers and balloons for RC cars, arcade games, demolition dust, and a whole lot of chaos! ποΈπΉοΈπ¨
Our GRAND OPENING was everything we hoped for and MORE! Seeing our community show up to support another one of our crazy adventures meant the absolute world to us. The rain even decided to cooperate just long enough for the kids to enjoy the inflatables and take a few laps around our inflatable race track! ππ
But here's the thing. None of this would have been possible without some pretty incredible people. And I need to give them the recognition they deserve. β€οΈ
β€οΈ D.j. White : Where do I even begin? You take every single one of my crazy ideas (and let's face it, there are A LOT of them π€£) and somehow figure out how to bring them to life. Your ideas, your hard work, your dedication, and your endless support mean more than I could ever put into words. I truly don't know what I ever did without you. Thank you for believing in my dreams, even when they involve tearing down walls at the last minute. πβ€οΈ
π¨ Kelly Kuether: This guy worked all day running his OWN business and then spent his Friday night helping us tear down walls. When most people would have gone home and put their feet up, Kelly showed up and pushed himself even harder to help some friends in need. That kind of friendship is something you just can't put a price on. THANK YOU!
ποΈ My boys, Corbyn Wassenberg, Caden Wassenberg, and Ryder Wassenberg: I couldn't be prouder of you three! Corbyn, your dedication to keeping the RC repair shop organized and running smoothly hasn't gone unnoticed. And Caden and Ryder, I have NEVER seen you two work so hard as you did tackling that demolition! You boys absolutely busted your butts, and seeing your determination and work ethic makes this mama's heart so proud. β€οΈ
πͺ Brayden Recker: Thank you for running here, there, and EVERYWHERE for us! And for recruiting your friends to come lend some extra hands! Pretty sure we had you going in 47 different directions, and you just kept going! π
πΈ Mallory Braun: From delivering flowers to cleaning out coolers to cooking up food, you jumped in wherever we needed you! Thank you for helping keep everything moving while we were running around like chickens with our heads cut off!
π Chucky: Thank you for being our personal errand runner! Every trip you made meant we could keep working and getting things done. Those little things make a HUGE difference when you're racing against the clock!
And to EVERY SINGLE PERSON who stopped out, brought their families, played games, raced RC cars, shared our posts, or simply cheered us on... THANK YOU! π₯Ή
We are so incredibly fortunate to live in a community that continues to show up and support our dreams, no matter how crazy they might be.
I'm sure I'm forgetting someone, and if I am, PLEASE know it isn't intentional. My brain is currently running on caffeine, adrenaline, and approximately three functioning brain cells. π€£
We have poured so much blood, sweat, tears, and probably a few choice words into making this happen. Seeing everyone enjoying themselves made every exhausting minute worth it.
My heart is full. My body is DONE. And my bed is calling my name! β€οΈ
Now, if you'll excuse me, it's time for some VERY MUCH NEEDED ZZZZZ's! π΄π€
THANK YOU FOR ONE INCREDIBLE WEEKEND! πβ€οΈ
