Only a week has gone by since my last post. The joy of summer and free time! Here's what went on last week.
- I took Allie & her friend Maddie to see "Judy Moody" at the theatre. The kids loved it, I thought is was pretty boring and dozed a bit. Jake & friend Paul went to see "X Men" on their own. A big step!
- Allie spent the night at Maddie's house.
- Jake spent the night at his friend Christiano's house for his birthday. He said that they had fun and that his dad "made burgers that we as tender as melted butter."
- Jake had 2 ballgames. Both ended pretty bad with HUGE losses. Both were in the rain, which made it worse! In one of the games, one of our players got his in the elbow when he was up to bat & it broke his arm. Bummer! In the other game we were short 1 player, so it was rough.
- The kids went to their friend Makenna's birthday party.
- Jake started his first basketball camp of the summer at UNI. He loves it. Next week he starts his 2nd camp sponsored by CF schools.
- Allie has been going to Music Mania camp this week. They are singing, learning to play instruments, dancing and doing a few art projects. At the end of the week, they are putting on a play. Allie's role is "Moon 4" and playing the drums.
- Both kids have been going to VBS at their new church. They are having a great time. I volunteered one night at VBS.
- I went for drinks with my friends Karen & Cathi while the kids were at VBS. It was fun catching up with them. I also spent a morning (while the kids were at camp) shopping in downtown CF with my friend Kristin.
- We went to Drew & Delaney's birthday parties. Delaney was a hoot digging into her cupcake. Drew loved playing with Scott.
- Each day after basketball camp, Jake has hooked up with friends and played whiffle ball in a vacant lot nearby. I love our neighborhood and the fact that at any given time there are 2-15 boys around hanging out & staying active.
- Scott and I celebrated our 15 year anniversary! He surprised me with a BEAUTIFUL anniversary ring. He is getting a new laptop or iPad from me (he hasn't decided which he wants more).
- Next week: Jake has a ball tournament & several games, my brother & his family are coming to visit, Jake has basketball camp, Allie is going to spend several days with my family, Jake has a movie planned, I have drinks with friends planned, my sister & her kids are coming to visit for a couple of days, Jake has ball practice, Sturgis Falls weekend and Jake is running another 5k. Whew!
