Monday morning we drove to Boise and the kids got to spend the
afternoon with Uncle Nick at his school doing P.E. They were in
heaven! P.E. is for sure Kade's favorite subject in school and to get
to do it for five class periods was a real treat. Nick said during the
first class he had explained everything and he looked over and Keian was
hanging his head and starting to cry. Nick was worried it was a sign
it was going to be a long afternoon! He asked Keian what was wrong and
he said, "I'm so confused!" He just didn't get the instructions Nick
had given for the game.
After their P.E. adventure I
had the kids takes naps (well Kirra read a book) so they could stay up
for our late night ahead. After naps we went to Pizza Hut for dinner
and then took the kids to Wahooz for a little LazerTag and arcade
games. The highlight of the evening was attending Nick and Brett's city
league basketball tournament game at 9:00 p.m. - okay so maybe it
wasn't the highlight since they lost, but it was fun to watch them play.
How Bubs watches basketball - from all over the gym!
We
got back from the game late and didn't get the kids to bed until
midnight. Yikes! They were having so much fun playing with Jess and
her dog, Grizz. Keian woke up at 2:30 and had wet the bed so we put him
in the tub and stripped the bed. With no more sheets available the
boys got in the double bed Scott and I had been sharing and they shared
with Daddy while I got on the couch cushions on the floor with Kirra.
What a lovely night!
Tuesday we went to visit my
college roommate, Jenn, and her cute kids. They live in a gorgeous
neighborhood in Eagle, ID with a pond right behind the house. Brett
came over and he, Scott and the kids tried their hand at catching some
fish. They didn't get any bites, but had fun throwing rocks! It was so
great to get to visit with Jenn and catch up on things going on with
her family.
After we left Jenn's Scott wanted to stop
at the outlet stores just outside Boise. It didn't sound too appealing
to me because pretty much every time we've gone to an outlet mall Scott
finds like 100 new things I don't find anything. This time was
different though! Scott dropped me off at a store while he took the
kids to some other stores and ended up finding some dresses. I haven't
had a new dress in a very long time!
Wednesday my mom
and I went over to Twin Falls to do some shopping and then spent 8 hours
working de-junking and starting to pack my great-aunt's house. We were
covered in cat hair by the time we were done and most of the time I
thought I had cat hair in my mouth. Blah! Kirra got to have her
friend, Alx, come over and play and Daddy gave some pretty fun rides on
the 4-wheeler to everyone.
