Wow-this week really flew by

I remember thinking that this week would be a long week after being off for so long and only having two days last week; however, I was wrong. This week went by so fast and it was so nice to get back to a regular routine. It was so busy before Christmas that I felt like I was missing out on quality time with the kids. We obviously made up for that over break and it was nice to have our evenings back to normal this week. Austin helped make dinner Monday, chicken and dumplings while Preston and I made a cake for dessert. We got to take a walk after school also because it was so warm out: well, warm for January. Tuesday we took it easy, the boys played and we just had a relaxing family night. Wednesday our small group met here so Jeff took the boys to his parents for dinner. Thursday the boys and I had what turned into a mini game night. We played several games and built a zoo out of their wooden blocks. I even got to squeeze in two aerobic classes this week that our school nurse is teaching after school called Rip like Ripa, we'll see I guess- if I can stay motivated- that is. And I probably need to quit having that piece of cake and ice cream every night! Sunday after church and lunch, we all got to go on a bike ride around the neighborhood! Yet, I doubt we get to this weekend, it looks like it's going to be cold.
