Traffic and Parking

This morning we walked the boys to school.

Shortly after we got home I left for a conference.  I won a ticket to the Texas Conference for Women.  It took me two hours to get from our house to the inside of the convention center.  Traffic was bad downtown.  The two different parking lots for the convention center were full.  After driving around downtown for a while trying to find a parking spot, I was thinking about heading home.  One of the "full lot" signs said to try the parking garage at the Palmer Events Center (across the lake and quite a far walk).  I decided to try that and then figure out how to get to the convention center.  After parking there I learned they had shuttle service to the convention center.  I boarded the bus, which had quite a few others on it, and we sat for about 15 minutes before leaving.  I found out the shuttle bus only runs every twenty minutes.

I stayed at the conference until 4pm.  The lunch keynote speakers were Patricia Arquette and Robin Roberts.  I was really impressed by Robin Roberts.

I got home around 5pm as Morry and Evan were getting ready to leave for baseball practice.

At 5:30 Noah and I went to one home for tutoring.

When we got home I started heating up food for dinner.

Morry and Evan got home around 8:15 and we ate dinner.

 The boys are getting ready for bed now.

Frozen Yogurt night

This morning we walked the kids to school, like usual.

We also walked to pick them up.

Around 4pm Morry left for a start up convention downtown.

Later, the boys and I ate dinner and then we went to TCBY for dessert.

They are all ready for bed now, but still playing in their rooms.
