Weekend Recap

Busy busy busy

Baseball Saturday morning, with the added chaos of Picture Day. Very crazy, arrived 45 minutes early then all of the games were about 15 minutes late. Lots of standing around waiting for pictures to be taken, while Emily got tired of sitting in the stroller and had to be carried. Plus keeping the kids kind of corralled with their respective teams. I uploaded some pix from this week and last week on the Picasa site, and changed the Slide show to show all pictures from this summer's baseball games.

Then Saturday afternoon we tried to just relax some before heading over to Dennis' house for his and Dustin's combined birthday party. The party was fun, no major trauma from the dogs. I also uploaded some pictures on the Picasa sit from there as well. Played lots of Ladder ball, Kim and I got on and didn't lose a game (except for the last one played in total darkness so we won't count that). Ladder ball seems to have replaced bocce ball, at least for this summer. It's more fun that bocce to some extent, and not nearly as stressful on the wrists.

Sunday we did a family trip to the Renaissance Festival (yes more pictures as well). It had been 2 years, and James & Daniel got a little more out of it, but I think we will wait another 2 years at least before we go again. It is just a little too much still for the kids, and too expensive for us once you factor in food, tickets, and if you buy any of the expensive items for sale there. Then we came back to town, did a little shopping, then had a nightmare dinner at Perkins. Emily decided more or less as soon as we sat down that she was tired of sitting still and pretty much screamed the whole time.

But overall a good weekend, lots of fun times, some stress but mostly fun. Looking forward to a 4 day week then a 3 day weekend.
