Hello everyone, this is Morry.
I needed to get into Touch To early this morning. We were having a client come in early so everyone needed to be in the office. Because of that I wasn't able to walk Noah to school. I drove him to the trail and then drove in. Evan closed up the house by putting Chewie in his crate and turned the alarm on as he left the house.
Rachel worked this morning, then she went to see the sports medicine doctor to work more on her shoulder.
I got home in time to walk to get Noah. Rachel rested for a bit when we came home and then left to tutor.
Just as Rachel got home, Evan and I left to go to a hitting lesson.
When we came home, we had dinner. Then we helped Noah with his science fair proposal.
The boys are in bed now.
Until next time...

HEB Run
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
Tuesdays are Rachel's early day so she can't walk Noah to school. Noah and I walked with Chewie. It was around 33 degrees when we walked, but there was very little wind so it didn't feel bad.
I went into Touch To and worked from there today.
I came home in the early afternoon and did more work before walking to pick Noah up. Rachel had a staff meeting so she didn't come home. She also had to run into Charles Maund to renew the car.
We needed to go to HEB since we hadn't been there for shopping in more than a week. Evan arranged to play basketball with his friend who lives near HEB. I dropped Evan off there and Noah and I did the shopping. It was a big shopping trip as we needed quite a bit. I picked Evan up on the way home.
Rachel was home when we got home. We unloaded the dishes and made dinner.
Right now, Rachel is doing some work while the boys play on the Playstation.

Break is Over
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
It was a bit tough getting up and ready after a week off. The boys did well. We walked Noah to school without issue.
I did some work and then went into HomeAway. Rachel went into school to teach a little later.
I had to stay for a meeting so I wasn't able to help pick Noah up. Rachel walked with Chewie to get Noah. I got home a little while later.
Evan went to Grandma and Papa's for dinner after he got home.
Rachel, Noah and I had leftovers and then I took Noah to TRPD. Noah's friend is trying out for the 11U team and Noah volunteered to help with the tryout and get some instruction in at the same time. Noah did well.
The boys are getting ready for bed now.

Thursday for Thanksgiving we went to Aunt Sandy and Uncle Marvin's house.
Friday night we had dinner at Grandma and Papa's house.

Morry and I took the dogs on a long walk.
This afternoon the boys decorated shirts and a hat.
Then, they watched the Steelers game.
For dinner, we went to a Chinese restaurant with Grandma and Papa.
Now we are getting ready to go back to work and school tomorrow.
Here are some pictures from the last few days.

Jew Hungry?
This morning Morry and Noah picked up Jude on the way to school. His mom asked us if we could give him a ride today.
I had to be at school by 8am, so I didn't go to drop off the kids.
For my math class today we made Rice Krispie Treats. Yesterday we did the math to figure out how much of each ingredient we would need. It worked out well. The kids had fun.
For lunch, my school had a Thanksgiving party. The parents brought in food for all of the students and teachers.
After that I went to my physical therapy appointment for my shoulder. I'm seeing the sports therapy doctor who Evan went to see. He's really good and seems to be helping my shoulder.
I came home just in time to walk to pick up Noah from school.
Morry was out all day. He was working and then had a work event at Top Golf.
For dinner, the kids and I went to food trailer Jew Hungry. It was our first time there. We all liked our food. Noah had bagel and lox. Evan had a roast beef sandwich on challah bread and I had pastrami on challah.
Morry got home around 8pm. He's making his pasta dinner now.
Evan is finishing his homework.

On the Move
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
It was 29 degrees at the time we went to walk to school. The weather app said the wind chill was 22 degrees. I really didn't feel too much wind. But it was still cold. Rachel decided not to walk with us.
I came home, did some work, and then went into Touch To. Rachel laid down for a little while and then left to teach.
I had a meeting in the afternoon and couldn't get back in time to walk to get Noah. Rachel got him and dropped him off at Grandma's.
Rachel left shortly after I got home to go to tutoring.
When Evan got home, we left, picked Cooper up, and then went to practice. We hit bad traffic on the way there because of an accident.
While Evan was at practice, I met up with a guy from fantasy football and hung out for a bit.
On the way home, we hit more traffic because of another accident. We stopped at Chick-Fil-A for dinner.
Chewie and I drove over to pick Noah up. Rachel is still tutoring. She should be home soon.
The boys are upstairs playing now.

Feels Like Winter
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
A cold front came through recently and it brought rain and cold temperatures. The high today was 50 degrees. It was in the 40s this morning when we got up and drizzling so we drove Noah to the trail.
I worked from home for a while. Rachel wanted to run so she ran on the treadmill.
I went into HomeAway later in the morning for a meeting in the morning and then one in the afternoon.
Rachel left later to go teach.
I wasn't home in time to get Noah so Rachel drove to the trail with Chewie to pick Noah up. I got home just after Evan got home.
Rachel tutored in the afternoon. Minutes after she came back, Evan and I left to go to his catching practice.
For dinner, we had ham and baked potatoes.
The boys are about to get ready for bed.

Hump Day
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
It was really warm and humid walking to school this morning. In fact, it was kind of gross out. It wasn't foggy like yesterday though.
I worked from home for a while and then I went into Touch To and worked from there. Rachel was home and then went into school.
I came home in the early afternoon and got on a conference call with HomeAway. Grandma picked Noah up from school because I was on the call and Noah went home with her.
Rachel stopped at HEB in Bee Cave on the way home from school.
Shortly after Evan got home, I drove him to Cooper's house. He was getting a ride to practice with Cooper's family. On the way back I stopped at our HEB and picked up medicine for Evan.
Noah had dinner with Grandma and Papa. Rachel and I had ribs for dinner. Rachel got Noah just before we had dinner and Noah wanted a rib as well.
Evan is watching ESPN right now. Noah is upstairs.

Waiting To Vote
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
We had a very busy weekend this past weekend. Evan and I ended up being at the baseball fields for 15 hours on Sunday. Adding the nearly hour drive each way and we were gone from the house for almost 17 hours. It was a successful day though. TRPD finished 2nd in the tournament. Evan threw a runner out trying to steal second each day. It was his first tournament back where he was able to throw. Rachel was able to come and watch one game.
This morning when we got up, it was really foggy. Noah and I walked to school in it. Rachel said that the traffic was moving slowly to school. She normally doesn't hit traffic but I guess the fog slowed everyone down.
I went into HomeAway later in the morning. I came back a bit earlier so I could stop and vote. It took a long time. From the time I got out of my car until the time that I got back in my car was an hour and 10 minutes.
Rachel had come home for the early afternoon, but left before I got home to tutor two students.
For dinner, Evan went to Grandma and Papa's. I picked him up after he ate and took him to a hitting lesson.
Noah ate while I was gone and then Rachel and I had leftovers when we got home.
The boys are getting ready for bed now.

Camp Champions
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
The fifth grade class always goes to a place called Camp Champions. They stay one night in cabins there and they do outdoor activities. I think they may learn some science-type stuff. Evan went two years ago and Noah's class is there now. I had to get him to school no later than 7am this morning. We got there around 6:50am. He was not even close to the first kid there.
I got home in time to say goodbye to Rachel when she left for school. Evan left for the bus shortly after.
I did some work and then went into Touch To.
I came home so I could have time to eat lunch and then pick Noah up from school only to remember that I didn't need to pick Noah up from school. Rachel was already home and she was resting.
After Evan got home, I took him for another doctor/therapy appointment for his arm. It's looking good and he doesn't have any restrictions playing this weekend. We came home and we were able to have a catch without any arm pain. All of that is good news.
We had dinner together. Then Rachel brushed both Chewie and Calvin. Rachel is starting to do that because both of them have longer fur and get knots in their fur.
Evan is upstairs and Rachel is doing some work.
