No Games

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

As Rachel mentioned yesterday, we had nothing scheduled for today.  Absolutely nothing.  We didn't have to get up early for a sporting event or a birthday party.  It was nice.  Rachel was going to run the San Antonio half marathon tomorrow but given how busy the fall has been, we decided to take it easy.

The boys slept in a bit.  I think I heard Evan around 8am.  Noah got up closer to 9am.  Rachel and I came downstairs and Rachel made Pillsbury cinnamon buns while the boys played MLB Power Pros on the Wii.

Rachel then went to tutor.  I stayed home and did a little bit of work while the boys continued to play Wii.

When Rachel got home, I left to go to Wings To Go.  Rachel thought I might be able to get more work done out of the house this afternoon.  They had free WiFi there and I could get wings.  They also had college football on.  Despite all of that, I was highly productive.  It was nice.

Meanwhile, Rachel made the boys lunch.  Then they went to the Wildflower Park to play on the playground and they brought their bikes.  The playground in a square in the middle of a neighborhood. So it's a big block but you can see the sidewalk from anywhere in the park.  Rachel had hoped that she could just sit there while the boys biked around.  Evan did well, but Noah needed to be pushed up the hills on his bike with training wheels.  He also was scared on some of the downhills.  He went around once.  Nevertheless, it was good having him get that experience out there.

I got home and played with the boys some.  Then Rachel and I got ready to go to dinner.  Blanca came over to watch the boys while we went out.

We went to a place called Casa Columbia.  It was pretty good.  Rachel got a fruit drink made of this fruit called Soursop. We had it when we were in Costa Rica - the fruit, not the drink.  I had a sip, it tasted good.  The food seemed authentic to me.  It reminded me of food in Costa Rica.  It was good.  We'd go back.

We decided rather than eat dessert out, to go to HEB and buy a frozen pie and cook it here while watching a movie.  The boys were going to bed as we got home.  They were very hyper, though, when we got home.  It seemed like they had a good time with Blanca.

Now they are in bed and we are going to sit down.

Until next time...
