~ Crazy Fun ~

We had a crazy fun weekend. Started Friday when the kids had a day off. We met A and her kids at the zoo...and bonus, another friend happened to walk by and she spent the afternoon with us as well. Funny that we go to the zoo....where the animals are....animals we don't see every day....but what do the kids really want to do? Run free and play at the park. Whatever, it's vitamin D either way.


Brian met us at the zoo and took T to the hockey game. I headed home with the other three and we got a quick dinner and played one game of Uno. Not sure why only one, but that's what happened. Then they settled in for a movie.

Next day....Brian had heard during the week that the Roughnecks game was free on saturday night. So we got tickets for that along with K's family. So fun. The kids were rockin' it up in their seats and screaming and cheering the whole time. The fun thing about Lacrosse as opposed to a hockey game, they score a lot. So there is a lot of yelling and carrying on. We had originally thought we'd leave J with my parents, but ended up taking him. He had a great time...clapping and yelling. Mostly looking at us wondering if we'd finally lost our marbles. But it was a super fun time. Home late though, was the only draw back.

With a late game and day light saving time....it was really late.

So sunday morning I'm up getting ready. It's getting later and later and no one is starting to stir. In fact, every one of them is sound asleep and snoring still. So I left them all. : ) Had a lovely quiet time at church by myself. Was able to attend all my classes and hear the entire thing. That hasn't happened in YEARS.

Got home to find out that they had all slept late. They needed sleep. Brian and S have colds. O is getting it and T & O were just grumpy. They had a great home day.

So it's Monday and S is home sick with the same cold, O was up in the night coughing and hacking. J doesn't have it yet, but it's just a matter of time. I'm overloaded with work to catch up on...but the end may be in sight.

Women's Conference with my pals can't get here soon enough.

S had a skating activity with her class...check out the pictures, with one of her in the middle.
