20141012 - Tile Roll

20141012 - Up in the am and all into early church.  We left D there as he is heading out for a confirmation retreat with some kids his age for the next couple of days.  Home and working at the desk paying bills and getting caught up.  L&G out shopping and getting groceries.  J upstairs hanging out and practicing piano.  Everyone home and we jumped in the car for an adventure. We  ran some errands and headed to Pigeon Farm to get some pumpkins and have some fun. We did a corn maze, saw some animals, shot some hoops, threw some tennis balls and were human gerbils in some great big tiles. It was a lot of fun. We got a couple pumpkins and headed home. Home and we had some dinner. G&I played on xbox and then a couple of friends came over to watch the premier of the Walking Dead.


20141011 + Solo Homecoming

20141011 + Up in the am and LD&J to J's soccer game and then D's JV practice he was invited to.  G&I up and out to his semifinal game.  We only had 8 players and a younger boy we has called up and the cold morning was too much for our team to get started.  LD&J showed up to watch, D's practice was cancelled.  We lost and are now done with rec baseball for the fall :-(  :-)   Home and the boys played in the yard, L mowed and I cleaned out the garage.  We got dinner at home and then D reluctantly got all cleaned up and I took him to the dance.  I encouraged him to find some of his friends and have a good time, and leave the girl alone as he will only get a handful of opportunities to do fun things like this at school.  I gave him the out to call me at anytime and I would come get him.  Home and played Titan Fall and watched football with the boys.  11pm rolled around and no rescue call had been made.  I went to DQ to pick D up.  As he was walking to the car in his dress clothes and tie he tied himself I really didn't recognize the man waling towards me.  He got in the car and yes it was my son, a big hansom fellow that reported he has a BLAST at the dance with his friends :-)
