The rest of the neighborhood is back in school, so I can finally spend some peaceful time outside with my kids and not be interrupted. I know it sounds selfish, but oh well. I guess it is. I love having the peace and quiet back.
On Thursday morning I spent the gorgeous morning outside with the kids bird watching. It was peaceful, beautiful and so enjoyable.
Then we met up with my friend, Carlee, and her kids at Westmore park. Our kids all played while Carlee and I chatted for an hour. It was lovely weather and so nice to connect.
Then I took the kids home, fed them, put everyone in front of TV or down for a nap, and took a nap myself.
After quite time we all went to Scera Pool together. Ammon found a way to almost kill himself on the kiddie slide by jumping down it in such a way that he almost cracked his head open. Also, Clarissa puked on me after drinking copious amounts of pool water. I didn’t feel like I could stop her from drinking the water, so I just let her drink. I probably should have tried harder to stop her, but I think I learned my lesson when she puked on me.
In the evening Abe had to go grocery shopping with Steve Young for the Fathers and Sons campout, so I spent the time binge watching The Good Wife on Amazon.
