Outside

Today was a beautiful day.  The high temperature was 86 degrees.  We spent a lot of time outside.

Late morning, we met Deborah and Christina and her kids for a hike.  We went to McKinney Roughs Nature Park near Bastrop, TX.  We hiked about 4.5 miles with many stops.  We spent some time at the creek skipping rocks.

On the way home we got Slurpees at 7-11.

We took it easy at home for a little and then Morry and Evan went to baseball practice at 4:30.  After the practice they picked up food for Lizzy at Petco.  Then, Grandma, Papa, Noah, and I met them for dinner at Backspin.  The food was good and the boys ate well.

Now the boys are getting ready for bed.

Here are some pictures from today and yesterday.

Terrific Student

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Last night, Evan stayed over Jack's house with Wade and Ethan.  Noah stayed over at Grandma and Papa's.  So Rachel and I went out.  We had a nice dinner.  We walked to a place called Voodoo Doughnuts.  Apparently it is a Portland, Oregon institution and the first one they opened out of state was here in Austin.  They are known for their crazy doughnuts.  They were huge too.  Rachel got one with chocolate icing, peanut butter drizzle and Oreos on top.  I got one with chocolate icing and Oreos.

This morning we had to get up early.  Even though it's Saturday, Noah's teacher scheduled Parent-Teacher Conferences.  The teacher wanted the students there for the conference.  We picked up Noah on our walk and then had the conference.  Noah's teacher said that Noah was a "terrific student" and that Noah was a "math genius".  She wanted to know if Noah had anyone that was good at math in his family.  We said only his entire family.  She could not say enough good stuff about Noah.

On the way home, we stopped and got Evan.

Evan and I went a little later to a batting lesson with Coach Chris.  Meanwhile, Rachel, Noah and Grandma went to Costco.

This afternoon, Rachel and Evan went for a bike ride to the Veloway.

For dinner, I picked up Pho Thai Son.  When I got home, they got the order somewhat wrong.  So Noah and I went out to pick up the mistake.  We watched Hotel Transylvania 2 while having dinner.

The boys are now in bed.

Until next time...

Getting Nice

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Again it was cold this morning on the walk to school.  The difference today was that it was very sunny.  By the afternoon it was 70 degrees.

I went into Aaron's.  We had a meeting with a client.

Rachel met Noah for lunch.  She said he was really happy that Rachel was there.

The walk to and from school to get the boys was very nice.  It felt like spring.

Rachel tutored in the afternoon.  While Rachel was gone, I played football in the front yard with Evan.

For dinner, we had leftovers from the last two nights.

The boys are getting ready for bed.

Until next time...

Welcome Home Van

This morning we walked the boys to school and then I went to Howdy Honda to pick up my car.  So far, everything seems fixed.

Deborah came over later in the morning and hung out/ did some work until it was time to get the boys from school.

We walked to pick up the boys and Jack from school.

I tutored Jack and Audrey.

For dinner we had grilled chicken, soup, and cornbread.

Soon, the boys will get ready for bed.

Surprise! It's JW

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

The temperature said it was in the mid-40s this morning but it really felt quite cooler.  It was threatening to rain and the wind was blowing.  We did walk to school though.

I went to Aaron's to work on some HomeAway stuff today as well as another different project.

Rachel had her early tutoring today so she didn't come to pick up the boys.  It was raining at pick up time so I drove.  It was also the first Math Pentathalon of the year.  Evan did his homework in the hallway while I helped.  The girls I helped this time were much better behaved so it was more pleasant.  I was not able to help with Noah, but Owen's mom did.  She said that Noah is really fast with math.

When we came home, I got a text from JW.  He said that he was in town for work and wanted to stop by.  I didn't even know he was in town.  So he came by for about 30 minutes.  We just talked and hung out.  It was nice.

For dinner, we had a sirloin steak with marinated with a teriyaki sauce and cooked on the grill.  The boys ate a ton of it.

They are about to get ready for bed.

Until next time...

Recovering

I'm recovering from my big run yesterday.  I'm a little sore today.

We walked to school and then I just walked on the treadmill for a little bit.

Later, I went to a physical therapist for a massage.

We walked to get the kids from school.  They were in good moods.

It was really warm today.  The temperature reached the 70s.

I didn't have to tutor this afternoon so we just took it easy at home.

For dinner we had hamburgers.

Morry just ran out to return the Redbox movie.

When he gets back the kids will get ready for bed.

Marathon Complete!

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Rachel got up around 5 this morning and left the house before 5:45.  The marathon actually started at 7.  Rachel texted me at 8am that she had just passed Mile 5.

Noah and I picked up Grandma and Papa just before 9 and went downtown to meet Rachel at the finish line.  At 9:10, I got a text from Rachel that she had just passed Mile 12.  Assuming a 10-minute mile pace, I figured we had 10 minutes then to get to the finish line.  We all walked really fast.  Noah was able to keep up with me.  I would say about 4-5 minutes at the most and we saw Rachel cross the finish line.

After the race, we met Deborah for brunch.  We tried to go to Chez Zee but that had an hour wait.  We ended up going to Russell's Bakery.

Deborah drove Rachel back to her car at the start line while I drove home with Grandma, Papa and Noah.

We weren't home long before Noah and I went and picked up Evan from Josh's.

When Rachel got home, we walked over to Grandma and Papa's and I helped Papa hang the TV above the fireplace.  Evan rode his bike over.  Then he and Papa rode their bikes to the Veloway.  They really had a good time.

At dinner time, we went to HEB to get stuff for the week.  We also got the movie Fantastic Four and ordered pizza from Papa John's.  We had a family movie night tonight.

The boys are about to go to bed.

Until next time...

Day Before the Marathon

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This morning, Rachel went to a garage sale to buy cheap shirts and sweatshirts.  It's going to be 38 degrees at the start of the race but it will get warm fairly quickly.  She wants something that she can take off and throw along the side of the road.  Apparently, this is common and they come and pick up the clothes that people have left and give it to the homeless.  Rachel was able to get a shirt and a sweatshirt so she could be layered for a dollar each.

I took Evan to meet with Coach Chris for a hitting lesson at noon.  Chris said that it looked like Evan hadn't taken any time off.  Evan really enjoyed it.

We stopped at Office Depot and then Smoothie King on the way home.

We hung out at the house all afternoon.

For dinner we went to Olive Garden so Rachel could carb load.  Then we took Evan over to Josh's house.  He'll be staying over there tonight.

Until next time...

Cold Morning

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

It was a cold, windy morning walking to school.  It was 39 degrees but the wind chill made it about 28 degrees.  We all survived.  Lizzy seemed to like it.

I was planning on working from home all day but then Aaron and I ran into an issue so I needed to go into the office.

Rachel and I met at Wholy Bagel for lunch.  Afterwards, I went back to the office.

Rachel went downtown to pick up her packet for the half marathon this weekend.  The packet pick up didn't start until 2.  She got home a little after 2:30 and I had started walking to get the boys.  Rachel met us there.

Wade and Jack walked home with us.  Evan and Noah enjoyed having them over.

For dinner, we had a Living Social deal to a thai food trailer.  We ordered it for Rachel and me.  We stopped at Subway on the way out and get the boys sandwiches and then picked up our food.

The boys will be getting ready for bed soon.

Until next time...

Loaner Car and Canceled Tutoring

We walked the boys to school today.

I went for a run, Uncle Marvin came to pick up his tape measures, and then Morry and I went to the Honda Dealership.

In order to fix my car they need to order a part that won't be ready for a few days, so they offered a loaner car.  We picked up the car (new Honda Accord).  I drove back home and Morry went to Aaron's.

We walked to pick up the boys from school.

Shortly after getting home I left to tutor.  Both of the students canceled today, but not until I actually got to the locations.  They both were sick and forgot to tell me.

For dinner we had Sprite chicken.

The boys are playing video games, but soon they will get ready for bed.

Minivan Blues

This morning we walked the kids to school.  It seemed colder and grayer than yesterday and not as many people were out walking.

After dropping off the kids Morry and I took my car to the Honda dealer.  I had been having some electronic issues with it and needed an oil change.  He drove me back home and we left the car there.

We walked to pick up Evan and Jack from school.  Noah went home with his friend Jude.

I tutored Jack and Audrey.

Noah was dropped off at home around 5pm.  He seemed to have a good time.

My car is still not ready.  They haven't figured out the problem yet.

For dinner we had tacos and rice.

In a few minutes we will play a game a Clue and then the boys will get ready for bed.

Lizzy's New Friend

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

On the walk to school this morning, I carried Evan's Science Fair Project Board, while Rachel held Lizzy.  But Rachel walked the boys down the trail to school while I held Lizzy.  While I was holding Lizzy, one of Evan's friends from second grade, Colby, got to the trail.  He was walking with his mom and his 16-week-old puppy.  It was an Australian Shepherd.  Lizzy got very excited and wanted to see the dog, Tucker.  Tucker was scared of Lizzy.  When Lizzy couldn't sniff Tucker, she barked which scared Tucker even more.  But then Colby's mom bent down and pet Lizzy.  When Tucker saw this he came up to Lizzy and the two dogs were sniffing and jumping around together.  Lizzy was hyper the entire way home after that.

When we got home, Rachel went for a run.  I went into Aaron's to work together on some things.

At lunch, Rachel went out with Deborah and one of Deborah's friends.  The friend happens to be a veterinarian who used to work out our vet office.  She saw both Lizzy and Mottel many times, although that was many years ago. She didn't remember Rachel.

On my way home, I stopped at Smoothie King.  Normally, I park in front of Smoothie King but all the spots were taken.  I had to drive around the corner and park at Torchy's.  As I was getting out of the car, I saw the door to the car parked next to me open up.  It turns out it was Daniel, Darius' dad.  He told me he had just gotten tacos but his car wouldn't start.  I guess his battery died.  He had just called his wife when I pulled up.  So it worked out that I could give him a ride home.  He was just going to leave the car there until after school when he could go out with his wife to start it.  It's amazing because if I had parked where I normally park, I wouldn't have seen him.

Rachel went to tutor so I walked to get the boys.  The boys said they wanted to go to Grandma and Papa's after school.  We came home and they did their homework and then started walking and then Grandma met them.  I guess they played Monopoly and ganged up on Grandma again.  Rachel picked them up on the way home for tutoring.

After dinner, we played Clue.

The boys are getting ready for bed.

Until next time...

2 Dinners

This morning the boys and I picked up Grandma and we went for a hike.  We hiked for about 2 miles.  The boys seemed to really enjoy it and wanted to do more.

I got some stuff done around the house while the boys played.

For dinner we had coke ham (previously frozen) and baked potatoes.

After dinner we went to Costco.  On the way there the boys said they wanted to eat at Costco, even though we already had dinner.

Morry ordered a pizza for Evan and hotdog for Noah and they both ate all of their food.

The boys are getting ready for bed now.

Here are a few pictures from today.

More Science Fair

This morning we took it easy.  I went for a run.

We had lunch at home and worked more on putting together Evan's science fair project.

In the afternoon Morry and the boys watched the Steelers game.

For dinner I had leftovers, Morry had a hot dog, and the kids had waffles/pancakes.

Soon the boys will get ready for bed.  They don't have school tomorrow, so they can stay up a little bit later.

Here are a couple of pictures of Evan's Science Fair project so far.

Science Fair Project

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Rachel and I both slept in this morning.  I had know idea how late it was.

Evan and I planned to do his science fair project today.  We needed longer tape measures.  Rachel called Uncle Marvin and went to his house to pick up two 100 foot tape measures.

After that we stopped by Grandma and Papa's.  Noah hadn't wanted to come with us so we dropped him off there and we then picked him up.

We had lunch and then Evan and I went out with Papa to the Oak Hill fields to do the experiment.  The experiment was to see what hit the ball farther - a wood bat or an aluminum bat.  I had found a wood bat that was the exact length and weight as Evan's regular aluminum bat.  The teacher wanted Evan to hit 50 balls of each.  The aluminum bat hit the ball farther significantly.

For dinner we went with Grandma and Papa to Texas Roadhouse.  It was very good.

We stopped by Ashley Home Store to look at couches afterwards.

The boys are getting ready for bed.

Until next time...

Errands

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

It seemed a little colder on the walk this morning, even though the weather apps on our phones said it was warmer.  It was cloudier and there was more of a breeze.

When we got home, I did some work and then I had to run to the bank and I took my car to get washed.  I can work from the car wash place.

I came home and picked up Rachel and we went to Wholy Bagel for lunch.  We stopped by the post office and Office Depot as well.

We walked to get Noah.  Evan went home with his friend Ethan.  On the way we saw a snake on the sidewalk.  It turns out it was a garter snake.

For dinner, we went to Genghis Grill.  Both boys have been asking us to go there.

The boys are going to bed soon.

Until next time...

Monopoly

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

We had another nice morning walking to school.  Lizzy got a lot of attention today - the most since school started back.  She really liked that.

Rachel and Grandma then took Lizzy to Lady Bird Lake and went for a walk.

I went into Aaron's to work on some things.  On my way home, Rachel asked if I could get stuff for Evan's science fair project.  Target was out of the tri-fold board, but I was able to get a wooden bat at Play It Again Sports for the project.

We walked to get the boys.  Evan ran home with his friend Ethan who was on a bike.  Then Ethan and Evan and Ethan's sister rode around in the cul-de-sac for 15 minutes.

When Evan was done, the boys did their homework and then walked to Grandma's.  They played Monopoly with her.  Apparently, the boys ganged up on Grandma.  If the boys landed on each other's property, they didn't charge each other, but they always charged Grandma.  At one point, Evan bought a property from Grandma, only to turn around and give it for free to Noah, who needed it to be able to build houses on it.  They enjoyed it.

Rachel picked up Grandma and the boys up on the way home from tutoring and we all ate together.  We had hamburgers and corn on the cob made on our grill.

We just walked Grandma home and the boys are about to go to bed.

Until next time...

Much Better Day

This morning was much better.  Both boys did not give us any trouble.  Noah took his medicine. We walked to school without any issues.

I went for a long run this morning.

Morry and I walked to pick up the boys and Jack from school.

I tutored Jack and Audrey this afternoon.

After tutoring we went to HEB and saw Aunt Sandy there.

For dinner we had leftovers from last night.

The boys are playing video games, but soon (hopefully) will get ready for bed.

Both Back At School

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

For the first time in 2016, both boys went to school at the same time.  It was not without difficulty.  Noah refused to take his medicine, either the Tylenol or the antibiotic this morning.  He was just choosing to be difficult.  He wouldn't get up and walk with us when we left, so I ended up carrying him all the way to the top of the Doswell trail.  Rachel carried/dragged/pulled him the rest of the way down.

At lunch, Rachel went to Whole Foods for the Pink Ribbon Cowgirls.  Ironically, I had planned to meet my friend Jeff there not knowing it was a Pink Ribbon Cowgirls day.  As Rachel was checking out, her phone rang.  It was the school nurse.  Noah was complaining about his throat and wanted Tylenol.  The school nurse cannot give it to him.  Rachel called Grandma who went over and gave him the medicine.

I walked to get the boys while Rachel had her first full day back at tutoring.  Both boys were in good moods on the way home.

We had pasta for dinner.

The boys are about to go to bed.

Until next time...

One kid at home

This morning Evan wasn't feeling well.  He was complaining about his stomach hurting and feeling dizzy.  He stayed home from school.

Noah gave us a hard time this morning.  He wanted to stay home too, but we insisted he go to school.  He eventually took is medicine and I drove him to school.  I stayed to talk to his teacher for a little bit.

Evan was mostly on the couch or in bed the whole day.  I could tell he didn't feel well.

Deborah come by after lunchtime and stayed until dinner.  She did some work here.

Noah seemed to have a good day at school and made it through the whole day.

For dinner we had leftover Chinese food from last night.

Evan is in bed now.

Morry and Noah are playing Super Mario Brothers.

Bat Mitzvah Weekend

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Friday, just before lunch, my cousin Allison, her daughter Avery and Grandmom flew into Austin for Molly's Bat Mitzvah.  I picked them up at the airport.  We went to Torchy's Tacos for lunch.

Avery hung out with Noah in the afternoon while Allison, Rachel and I picked Evan up from school.

Allison, Grandmom and I went to Friday night services for Molly.  Rachel bought the boys and Avery to the dinner at Matt and Rachael's house after dinner.

Saturday morning, we went to the Bat Mitzvah.  Molly did a wonderful job.  Her voice was good, she read well, she projected and she was confident.

After the Bat Mitzvah, we decided to show Allison and Avery some of Austin.  Rachel, Evan and I took Allison and Avery to Lady Bird Lake to walk around.  We brought Lizzy.  It was cold and windy but we had a nice time walking.  Evan and Avery enjoyed each other's company.

We stopped at Pho Thai Son on the way home and got spring rolls as a snack.

The party on Saturday night was at a place called Main Event.  They have indoor miniature golf, bowling, rock climbing, laser tag and video games.  The kids had a really good time.  Both boys climbed the rock walls.  They had a good time at laser tag and mini golf.  I watched the Steelers game in the party room.

We didn't get home until nearly Midnight.  Allison, Avery and Grandmom had to be taken to the airport around 6:30 in the morning.  Evan insisted on coming with us as I drove.

I went back to sleep when I came home, but Evan stayed up.

We watched the Vikings-Seahawks game in the afternoon.  Then the boys and I watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1.  Evan fell asleep in the middle of it.

Grandma and Papa are on the way over.  They picked up Chinese food for us for dinner.  Evan is still sleeping.

Until next time....

Clothes

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Evan and I rode our bikes to school this morning.  I think Evan was really happy to do that.  It reminded him of when he was in Kindergarten and First Grade and just he and I would ride to school.  On the way back from school, I rode with Jack's dad, John.

Noah got up a little after I got home.  He was doing much better.  Rachel called the doctor last night and had the doctor talk to Noah about the importance of following the rules that they gave including drinking and eating cold things.  He's been drinking a lot more.  He looks much better.

I went into Aaron's for a while today.

Rachel and Noah stayed home.  After lunch we had cleaning people come to the house.

Rachel left to tutor after I came home with Evan.

Before Rachel got home from tutoring, I had the boys try on some of their nicer clothes for the Bat Mitzvah this weekend.  I found that most of the clothes did not fit the boys.  So we had to go shopping.  Rachel came home and we went to the mall and got the boys some nice clothes.

Noah wanted to eat pizza from Uncle Maddio's, so we picked that up on the way home.  Unfortunately, it was too hard on Noah's throat so he only had about 1.5 pieces.

The boys are ready for bed.

Until next time...

Cloudy Day

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Evan is sitting here with me as I write this.  Evan says, "meow".

Just before Evan and I left for school, he said he wanted to ride his bike.  Unfortunately, the tires in our bikes needed air so we walked today.  Tomorrow morning, we'll ride bikes.

Noah slept until close to 10am.  He gave Rachel a hard time about taking his medicine and eating.  He needs to eat and drink enough to take his antibiotics.  It took until nearly 1pm to get him to eat enough to take it.

Rachel had jury duty today.  Rachel was supposed to take Noah to Grandma's but because he hadn't finished his food and drink, she came over to watch Noah here.

Rachel got downtown, found a spot to park for 5 hours and paid for it, got to the courthouse only to be told she wasn't needed.

I walked to get Evan from school.  We walked home with Jack and his dad.

After I finished working, Evan and I dropped off a check for someone and then got a PowerBall ticket.

For dinner we had a pork tenderloin.

Evan wants to finish the blog with the following thought, "Poop!"

Until next time...

Day After Surgery

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Just Evan and I walked to school this morning since Noah is going to be staying home the whole week.  Unfortunately, that meant that Lizzy had to stay home as well.  She really wanted to come along.

When I got home, I did some work.  Noah woke up shortly after I got home.  He came down and started doing his homework.  I asked him if he wanted his medicine but he said no.  A little while later he started to really complain about his throat.  Getting him to take his medicine was very very difficult.  We really should have woken him up last night to take his medicine but since he was sleeping we let him sleep.  Once he did take his medicine, he felt somewhat better and was able to eat jello and rice and drink some Gatorade.  Rachel also went out and bought him a coffee cake from Starbucks.

Grandma came over and brought some matzoh balls that Noah ate as well.

I went into Aaron's for a bit.  On my way home, I stopped at HEB and did some light shopping.  I got more rice and Gatorade and some other things we needed as well.

Rachel walked to get Evan while I stayed home with Noah.

Rachel tutored in the afternoon.

For dinner we had flank steak.  Noah was able to eat a small piece of that.  He had jello after dinner.

We played Clue after dinner and this time Noah won!  I hadn't yet figure out the answer before Noah figured it out.  Everyone cheered for Noah.

The boys are getting ready for bed now.

Until next time...

Surgery

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

We arrived at the surgery center just before 6am this morning.  We were the first ones there.  In fact, it hadn't even opened.  We only waited a couple minutes before they let us in.

It didn't take long for them to take Noah back.  They asked all the prerequisite pre-op questions.  They did not put the IV into Noah while he was awake.  So he got up on the bed and was excited for them to wheel him on the bed.  He actually was excited about the whole thing.  They wheeled him back at almost exactly 7am.

They put us in a room where Noah would come after surgery.  At 7:26am, the doctor came in to tell us the surgery was a success.  They were going to let him sleep a bit and then wheel him in to be with us.

When they brought him in, he was asleep.  They said that they had woken him up and given him medication though he spit some of it out.  About 20 minutes after they brought him in, he woke up.  At first he was fine but then he swallowed and he was very upset by the pain.  We still had to wait about another hour before he was discharged.

Noah fell asleep on the way home.  We dropped off his prescriptions at HEB.

We put Noah in bed when we were home and he slept.  After I picked up his prescriptions, we woke him up to give him his pain medication.  Shortly thereafter, once the pain medication kicked in, Noah sat up and started playing with his iPad.  Noah got a timely knock on the door with a Lego set he had bought.  He got up and has been building that the rest of the day.

Evan came home with Grandma later in the afternoon.  Evan helped Noah (a little) with the Legos.

We had leftover Rudy's for dinner.  Now both boys are upstairs.  Noah is still working on the Lego set.

Until next time...

Tonsil Day

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

The weather was much nicer this morning so Rachel and Evan decided to run to Wholy Bagel.  They left the house around 10am.  When they got to a certain point, Rachel texted me.  Noah and I got in the car and met them there.

Wholy Bagel was pretty crowded, but they had our bagels.

Since Noah is having his tonsils removed tomorrow, we called today Tonsil Day and let Noah pick what he wanted to do.  After bagels, Noah went to Owen's to play.

While Noah was there, I did some work and had the football scores near me so I could check on the Steelers and their chances of making the playoffs.  Evan and focused solely on the scores as it got to under 7 minutes in the fourth quarter.

After football, we drove and picked Grandma and Papa up at their house and then got Noah from Owen's.  The next thing Noah wanted to do on Tonsil Day was to go see Daddy's Home.  We went to see it at the Regal theater.  He enjoyed the movie.

After dinner, we picked up Rudy's and brought it back to Grandma and Papa's.

Evan is staying over there since we have to get up early.

Noah is now in bed.  We have to be at the surgery facility early in the morning.

Until next time...

Birthday Party

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Rachel and Evan had planned to run to Wholy Bagel this morning.  The threat of rain though ended up being very great so they stayed at home.  It turned out, they could have run.  The rain really came down after lunch.

Evan was invited to Darius' birthday party.  The invitation said siblings were welcome.  Noah told us today he wanted to go.  About 20 or 30 minutes before I was going to take them, Miles' mom texted me and offered to take them and bring them home.  So Evan and Noah rode with Miles and Cole to the party.

With all this time to myself, I watched a movie that I wanted to see that I couldn't watch with the boys around.

The boys got home around 6.  They both had a really good time.

We picked up Pho Thaison for dinner.  We watched Ant-Man while eating dinner.

The boys are in bed now.

Until next time...

Happy New Year!

Yesterday Aaron's family came over in the afternoon for a little bit.

At night, we went to Wade's house.  They had a nice family friendly New Year's Eve party.  We stayed until a little after midnight.

Today, was filled with family.  We went to Uncle Marvin and Aunt Sandy's house around 10:30 and stayed there until mid afternoon.  Trent's family, Grandma and Papa, Jay and Holis, Jacob, JT and Helen, Lisa's boys, Joel, and Jimmy's kids were there with their significant others.  We had a nice time with everyone.

We took it easy tonight.  We ordered pizza and picked up a Redbox movie.  We just watched Inside Out with the kids.  We all liked it.

Soon the boys will get ready for bed.

Here are a few pictures from today.
