The kids were out of school today, so I was home. I had plenty of work to do, but somehow, it didn't all get done...
I planned on getting caught up on all my blog reading today, too, but that didn't quite happen either...
I wanted to write a brilliant post about how incredibly awesome this weekend was - especially Saturday. I'm still holding out on that one. I know it's coming...
The kids and I are going out of town for the weekend (Fri - Mon) and I actually had to pack today because I know I won't have time the rest of the week!
Football is not over; The Boy is on the all-star team. Practices are Mon, Wed, AND Thurs nights till 8pm. The Girl, as you may recall, is in the gym Tues & Thurs till 5:45.
The Husband has to go away at the end of this week...he'll be gone Thurs - Sat (which means he cannot come out of town with the kids and I).
Remember The Girl is in the gym till 5:45 - and The Boy has practice from 5:30 - 8. Thursday is gonna suck!
I have a deadline at work that I know I will not make - and only part of it is "my fault."
I NEED A VACATION...sans kids!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OK - Saturday. The game was at 10am. When we got up at 8, it was still raining...ugh! We got dressed knowing it would clear off, but still - ugh! We packed a bunch of towels and stuff to dry the bleachers and a blanket to sit on. It cleared up and, luckily, I remembered to bring sun glasses. The Husband was not so smart and just as the game began, he yelled for me to go get his glasses from the car. I ended up giving him mine and sending The Girl to get his!
The game was awesome. We scored a touchdown almost immediately. The game is made up of 4 12-minute quarters. Here is the score at just over 5 minutes into the game!
That pretty much carried the tone of the whole game. Our 10-yr-olds were out of the game before halftime!
The other team scored and our boys were allowed back into the game. They let up a second touchdown but no extra points were scored. Here is one last picture of the scoreboard:
CONGRATULATIONS boys!!!
That's great (about the game & bonfire, not about the upcoming practices).
