The past week

It's been another busy week and weekend.  Last Wednesday, we picked up Ali and Caden and had them at our house for the day to give their mom a break.   The kids played hard all day.  I tried a couple of times to get them to rest a little bit, but that didn't happen.  I think they all had a fun time. 

Tyson, Cooper, Caden, Kellen and Ali

Tyson had his last t-ball game of the summer Wednesday night.  He was the catcher in the picture above.  He hadn't played that position yet.  The t-ball season went by really fast.  I think Tyson had a good time.  Now that we have the first year under our belts, we know what to work on and practice.

The mosquitoes have been horrible this year.  It seems that they really like Cooper.  He's bit up all over.  One bit his eye lid and his eye was swollen a couple days last week.


On Friday we took the boys to the drive-in movie.  We saw Toy Story 3 and The Karate Kid.  They did really good considering we didn't get home until 3 AM!  Kellen stayed awake until 2:30 and he didn't even sleep in the next morning.


Shortly after we got parked at the drive-in, a pickup pulled in next to us.  Turns out it was someone we knew.  Small world!  She was a classmate of mine.  They were there with their two kids.  The boys had fun playing with their little boy.  He would say things like "I want to sit by the brothers".


On Saturday, I went to a bridal shower in Omaha for Kevin's cousin.  I got home just in time for church - Kevin had the boys all ready to go. 




On Sunday we went up to Norfolk to do a little shopping.  That evening we went over to my aunt's house to have a little 4th celebration.  She had homemade ice cream and other treats and we watched fireworks.  In the picture above, is my grandma holding Kellen and Tyson.

On Monday morning, they called from work to see if I could come in that morning.  So I went in for a couple of hours to help them figure some things out.

Yesterday, I took the kids to the pool.  We haven't been there yet this year.  Erin, Brooke and Allyx were there and my mom came in and met us too.

Today's been pretty laid back.  And tomorrow we have to go to Columbus to run some errands and Tyson has an eye doctor appointment that he needs to get into kindergarten.
