Weekend Wrap-Up

We had a GREAT first couple days of school! But we were definitely ready for a weekend.  It was nice to start with a short week.  Kylee wasn't very happy that she had homework after school on Friday.


Meanwhile, Kase had a buddy come over and play. They were so proud of their fort they built! 


Friday night we debated for a long time about what to do.  There was a concert in town we really wanted to go to but it started kind of late.  Kael really wanted to go to the football game and everyone else was kind of wavering.  Ultimately, we decided that Kent, Kael and Kylee would go to the football game and I would stay home with Kase and just relax and watch a movie.  My dad and mom and sister and family were all at the football game too so they had a good time.  My parents brought Kylee home at halftime and the boys stayed 'til the end!






Kase also had fun showing me how he "fills his tray" at school. 


Saturday was a really nice day.  We didn't have a lot going on so we just kind of planned the day as it went along.  I had a little PTO work to do in the morning while Kent and the kids played some backyard football.  When I got home we all played basketball then later Kylee and I went with some friends to watch some Jaguar volleyball! After that, we came home and all of us rode bikes to the new Smoothie King near our house.  The kids loved it and we enjoyed a longer route bike ride home. After that, Kent took the kids to the pool and I went with my dad back to the volleyball tournament. Loved watching them play but was so sad to see one of their players get hurt. When we got home, we all relaxed for a little bit then made homemade pizza for dinner.  When we were done eating we decided to go park out at the Saylorville Visitor Center and walk on the paths around there.  The kids just loved exploring and had fun climbing the rocks down to the beach. It was such a pretty night out too.










Later that night Kent went with some neighbor guys to watch the Mayweather fight. Sunday morning we took my parents to the airport. Later we went to Collins to visit Kent's grandparents and have lunch with the family.  We also stopped at Keith and Cindy's to play their newly restored pinball machine, which the kids thought was awesome! Keith and Cindy had been gone when we stopped by so later they stopped by our house to visit.  We had a nice time catching up with them, then the guys rode bikes to a park nearby and we met them there.

Later that evening I had a volleyball coaches meeting.  Meanwhile, Kent and Kael played football and Kylee and Kase both played with friends.  Kent was happy that Kase has found a new friend down the street whose dad is into wrestling like Kent is!

It was a great weekend and I know it's a full week coming up.  Kael starts football practice and we have a couple Back to School/Meet the Teacher nights. Plus the first full week of school is always pretty exhausting for my crew! Hope you all had a great weekend.
