Not really breaking news, but I always wanted to put that to freak people out. Didn't work, did it?
Ahh...so let's recap the weekend, which was exciting on so many levels (ha).
Friday was MOVIE NIGHT and of course we watched Alice in Wonderland. Maddie has a special love for this movie thanks to her ballet recital. We had popcorn and freshly baked cookies and gorged ourselves while we watched this fantastic movie.
Saturday Joel had to work, which he actually did all weekend. I had to work 3 hours on Saturday which gave the kid 3 hours to argue to their hearts' content, which they succeeded greatly at. At 11:00 we went running so they could burn off some energy. Maddie's been dying to go lately because she got new workout clothes and she just had to try them out. I think she ran 1 or 2 laps around the track before she decided she was bored with that. Dylan did 2 or 3 miles, I can't remember, or maybe he is fibbing, I don't know. I did 1.25 miles. Then we went to softball practice. We were going to do it at the middle school but there really isn't anything for Maddie to do there, so we went to the elementary school where she could play on the playground. Jay, Paul, and I were the only people who could make it on such short notice, but we got some good batting practice in and Jay only hit one ball over the fence.
After practice we went to the ball fields to catch some of Dennis's ball game. Dylan had wanted to stay there by himself, which I was fine with, but by the time I was ready to go so was he, so we all just went home. That night we had game night and played DVD Bingo, which was fun. I won :)
Yesterday I had to work 8 hours from 7:00 to 3:00 so that I could make Dylan's 3:30 game. That was miserable. By the time I got off at 3:00 I had to get ready for the game. I felt like I got nothing accomplished and with the kids all up in my face all day I really didn't get anything accomplished.
Dylan's team lost 5-0, which means they play tonight. If they lose tonight the season is over. If they win, they play on Wednesday again. I won't lie and say I'd be sad if they win. Honestly, this has been such a loooong season and I really am looking forward to some normalcy in our life for just a few days maybe. If they win, that's good for them though.
No more news to report today. Tomorrow I can report that we're moving on in the tournament, or that we are now free to spend our evenings at home. Oh the suspense!
