Friday I took Kase to the doctor since he had been up in the night complaining of an earache and sure enough, he had ear infection. He wanted to make sure he could go back to school afterwards though, because he was line leader that day and he didn't want to miss anything! Kylee came home upset from something that had happened at school, so I knew we needed to do something other than just sit around the house Friday night.
We decided to go to opening day at Brenton Skating Plaza! It was a nice night out and we had a great time. The kids all did great! Kase wanted so badly to keep up with the big kids though! We got to see the tree lighting ceremony and also Santa came! Kase was excited to see him and tell him that he wanted a Nerf gun for Christmas. While we were there, Kent got interviewed for the Drake news and also we later saw ourselves on KCCI. The kids thought that was cool. We had also been in the local Ankeny Living magazine, so it was a big week for us!
Saturday morning Kent made chocolate chip waffles. I'm thankful for my weekend breakfast chef. Later that morning Kylee went for a run- she continues to train in case we do end up going to nationals! When she got back we all went to Kent's office to help get some stuff done. He and my dad are rearranging things and the kids and I were happy to help.
That afternoon, Kase went to a friend's birthday party. He had a blast!
Kael had a basketball game and played great- even scored a few baskets! Later that evening we went to Kevin and Kaity's baby shower. The kids stayed home with my parents. We had a great time seeing everyone and we are getting so excited to meet this sweet baby!
Sunday after church, Kent headed to St. Louis for work for some training. We're so thankful for this amazing opportunity he has!
The kids and I spent the whole afternoon decorating the house for Christmas. They were a big help and had so much fun looking at each ornament they pulled out of the box!
We are very much looking forward to the short week ahead! It's going to be a great week with family!
