Weekend update

Dear James, Daniel and Emily

So, a pretty uneventful weekend. Saturday Kim worked in the morning, then we did a big grocery trip, then we took the kids swimming at the Y, which we hadn't done in quite some time. Sunday we had planned on going and getting a family photo done, so we had to venture out into the cold for a little while. Then Kim worked the rest of the day so I had a relaxing afternoon and evening.

The swimming was a lot of fun, James has finally reached the point where I can just toss him around in the little pool and he can make his way back to surface, which is just great. Some of my fondest memories are of reckless fun play in the pool with Dad or uncle Frank throwing us around. And it was great to finally be able to do the same with my kids. Although it was clear we need to get Emily into the water more, she was pretty fearful at first. So we will have to make a plan to get out there more often.

Sunday we went to get our pictures taken, but the camera wasn't working right, so after 3 sittings we had to reschedule. The kids were pretty good about it. Then we went home and huddled there, watching the Broncos fizzle away a chance at the Division championship. But I just turned it off at half time, realizing there was no need to torture myself.

So a good weekend overall, starting to make plans for the upcoming holiday. We have most of our Christmas shopping done at this point. So the weekends are pretty relaxed.
