Night

Instead of me thinking about it and thinking about it, I am just going to start typing. Still stops me every time. Thinking. All I do is think about things and rarely do I ever act on those thought. Probably because I start thinking about something else right when I start to act on the thoughts.

This weekend was good I think. lol. Saturday and Sunday I woke up super early and went back to bed after some cereal and a load of laundry. I slept in but up before it was crazy late. The Macalaguim's spent the whole weekend together which is highly unusual. Now that the school gym is up and running, it will become a thing of the past. Girl's Volleyball is upon us. But for now, the weekend we just had was really nice. Kids did their Popping Class Saturday afternoon. Ethan is still in love with it. And does GREAT! Abby is not so into it. She has to stay in the same spot for an hour. Nope, not going to happen. Not when she hears music and is in a class of 20+ other kids. That's a party foul in Abby-World! She'll switch to Jazz in September. Then after some lunch we took Ruby to the dog park and watched her greet all the humans! Such a baby, i tell you.

Ethan had a sleepover at his BFF's house but I got the call at 1030pm to come pick him up. He was "homesick". I was glad in a weird way that I got to pick him up. Made me feel like a loving and all protecting mommy for the 9 yr old who barely gives me an "adios" when we get our of the car at school each day.

Sunday was even better. Slept in, woke up to my 49ers playing. My loving husband recorded it for me, since I never get to watch my football down south. We won! Yahoo! Kids laugh at me getting so excited, screaming, jumping off the couch at interceptions! I LOVE IT! After that I did my weed pulling that I have been wanting to do for months. Just never acted on the thought. I know I am going to be sore tomorrow. No going back upstairs for me. Kids were outside for hours while i was doing that. We visited with our neighbors and the kids all rode their bikes and scooters and played with dirt. We love our neighbors! That is probably 75% of the reason we have never moved. We just couldn't have asked for better neighbors. Really....it's awesome! At one time there were 6 kids in front of my house from ages 2 to 9. And 3 babies in tummies!! (not mine) lol.

We went and got some Rite-Aid ice cream. Nothing beats Chocolate Malted Crunch. Ethan would argue that LemonHead ice cream does. He loves it so much, he paid for his 2nd scoop with his own money! He is a lover of ice cream like his dad!

Home after that, painted some Abby fingernails -- Made some hairbows -- ate a super late BBQ dinner and enjoyed some Ninja Warrior and SYTYCD as a family. Now, I am putting my thoughts here so I can get to bed and sleep more than 4 hours. Monday's are NUTS. And like I said earlier ...Volleyball is here and I am now a Coach's wife. Kind of like a Navy wife except he comes home every night. Late, but home!

I do love my family. Now, I just have to pray pray pray that Erwin will agree to expand it! lol...

Till next time...Night!
