Since Last Weekend

 Last weekend Morry and I went to the Broken Spoke for the first time.  The band was good and we enjoyed the experience.

On both Wednesday and today, I worked as an extra in separate movies.

On Friday, Noah had a cross-country meet.  He did very well and ran 2 miles in 15.30. 

Last night, we went to dinner with Aunt Susan, and then we went back to her house for a little bit.  We all had a nice time.

Tonight, Morry hosted the fantasy football draft at our house.  He made brisket.  Everyone left a little before 9pm.  Chewie seemed very happy to have so many people at our house.

Here are some pictures from the week.

Another Late Night

This morning Morry had a meeting, so I walked Chewie when the boys left for school.

I taught and then went to a meeting with St. Jude to talk about doing some social media for them.

I tutored one student in the neighborhood.

Noah went to Grandma and Papa's for dinner.

Chewie and I walked to pick up Noah from Grandma and Papa's house.

Morry and Evan went to Reid's house for a fantasy football draft and just got home at 10pm.

Back to it

This morning it was a usual school morning.   The kids walked to the bus and Morry and I walked with Chewie.

I taught and then came home for a little bit.

I was leaving for tutoring when the kids got home.

Evan got a ride to baseball practice since Morry had a Fantasy Football draft to go to.

After the baseball practice, Evan got dropped off where Morry was.  They are still there at the draft,

Noah and I ate dinner at home.

Labor Day Weekend

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This was our last weekend before baseball tournaments start.  We didn't have any scheduled baseball activity.  So we decided to really take it easy all weekend.  We know we'll be constantly moving and doing stuff starting next weekend, so we decided to stay near the house and just relax.

On Saturday, Rachel and I took Chewie for a walk so all three of us could get some exercise. Then we came home and had some lunch. After that we ran some errands including going to Walgreens and HEB. 

In the afternoon, we relax and in the late afternoon I started making dinner.  I took a whole chicken and butterflied it.  I put it on the grill with charcoal and a little bit of wood to give it some smoky flavor.  And put two bricks on it.  The recipe didn't have me cooking as long as I should have.  I think I know how long to cook it now.  The boys really loved it.

Yesterday, Rachel and Papa went for a bike ride.  In the afternoon, the boys and I watched Zombieland.

For dinner, we went with Grandma and Papa to a restaurant called MezzeMe.  It was pretty good.  The boys ate well there.  Evan said he'd go back.

This morning the boys and I went to the Ramati's for our fantasy draft.  I think we did ok drafting.

Following the draft, we met Rachel at a bagel shop called Nervous Charlie's.  It was our first time there.

For dinner tonight, we had the leftover chicken.  Then Rachel and I took Chewie for a walk.

Rachel and Evan are working on Hebrew right now.

Until next time...

This week

This week we were pretty busy.  I worked more hours this week since I'm subbing and covering for a teacher that is out of town.  I'm subbing tomorrow and Monday for her as well.

Yesterday, I was at school from 10:30am - 4:00pm.  Straight from there, I tutored 2 different students. Then, I picked up Noah from Grandma and Papa's house.  Was home for a few minutes and went back out to tutor another student.

Evan had baseball practice yesterday and got a ride home from Cooper.  Morry had a fantasy football draft last night.

Today, I did not walk Noah to school since I teach on Tuesdays and Thursday at 8am. 

After I was done with my school duties around noon I went to Charles Maund to sign the monthly papers and get my oil changed.

Morry and I walked to pick up Noah today.

This afternoon, there were no activities going on for once.

This evening, we went to H-E-B to buy groceries, get graph paper for Evan, and pick out some food for dinner.

Now the boys are getting ready for bed.

Quick Swim

Evan woke up early and Morry got him fed and set up in the gameroom.

Noah woke up a little before 9am.

Evan told me he wanted to go to the pool today. Now that school has started the pool is only open in the morning for rec swim between 9am and 10am. I told him if we wanted to go we’d have to hurry up and get dressed. We managed to get to the pool around 9:30am. Evan and Noah were the other kids there at the baby pool. They turned on the spray things for us. About 15 minutes later another 3 year old boy showed up. We got out of the pool at 10 and sat at a picnic table and had some snacks. Then, we drove back home.

For lunch Noah ate a lot of hot dog, but Evan just had some yogurt with fruit mixed in.

Evan and Noah took good naps. Evan really needed it. He slept for about 4 hours!

I got dinner ready and in the oven so we could eat as soon as Morry got home. Morry was taking the boys to the school meeting and I had tutoring. We ate the cornbread casserole quickly and then left the house.

On my way home from tutoring I saw I had a voicemail. It was from the alarm company saying our alarm went off. Soon after Morry got home with the boys 2 police officers stopped by to make sure everything was ok. Morry said Evan just stood there staring at them.

I got home as the police were driving away.

We got the boys ready for bed. Noah is sleeping. Evan is throwing a fit about not going to bed. Morry is busy with Fantasy Football and Evan won’t let me put him to bed. He’s just sitting on the floor next to me with his pants around his ankles. He won’t let me pull up his pants either.
