FindingHome

Busy! Busy! Busy!

Yesterday was a long day. We went to visit a family from church and it went well. The kids had a good time and I enjoyed my time visiting also. This family invited the kids to swim and then we stayed for dinner, it was alot of fun. This was out first visit to their house.

 After that we had baseball tryouts which ended up being 2 1/2 hours long, it was almost 10 when we got home. I still do not know if Nick will be able to play in the tournament because he will be visiting his dad at the end of the month and they don't know the dates for the games yet. He will just practice with them and see what happens.

I had to finish grocery shopping and get some presents for the birthday party tonight so ran into town with my two oldest girls and did that. I think I got everything I needed. The store was busy and I felt like I was in a hurry even though I had enough time. I spent a more than last month but still did good. I tried to fill in the gaps from last month, things that we ran out of or just didn't get enough of. When we got home we unloaded the groceries and it was already time to leave.

The birthday party was fun, the kids ran around in the sprinklers and we had hamburgers, hot dogs, corn on the cob, and chips. It felt so good to sit around and just talk and watch the kids. We also had cake and ice cream and then did the presents. I always miss my family during these parties. I got home after 9 again tonight.

Tomorrow we are going to do some school and get some laundry done. I also have lots of ironing to get done and the house needs straightening.

I am exhausted. We are not usually very busy but the last couple of days have felt crazy. Well off to bed I go.......
