Last week we sat around quite a bit and Joel disappeared frequently to get his friend time in and then we went to the Lake on Friday. On Saturday, Julie drove up and spent the day with us. Julie and I hit a few thrift stores and we all ate at aJ's pizza. Sunday Scott had the health issue and Joel stuck pretty close Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday, Leah came! Wednesday night we had our friends Goerge and Sheree over with their three boys. It was fun to see them. Joel ended up entertaining the boys, ages five and seven, by playing on the iPad, kicking around the soccer ball, and catching fire flies. We sat out on the deck and chatted.
On Thursday I drove up to pick up my Mom. We all mostly sat around together but that was fun. Thursday night we went to Chipotle for dinner and then later made a blizzard run.
On Friday the girls made our Target run and got some new duds. Then Friday night we went to Olive Garden for dinner. We drank wine and giggled and now have some pretty good family jokes to hang onto.
Today we sat on the deck all morning in the rain and then II drove Mom home and Leah took Joel to Newton and then will take him to the airport. Before she left, Leah gave Professor an entire haircut on the kitchen island.
We are always sad to say goodbye to the kids. We go from a full house to a quiet house again where we bumble around in here.
