Summer Break is Over

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Friday, I went into HomeAway for our weekly Friday morning meeting.  After that, I met Rachel, Evan and Noah, as well as Grandma and Papa and Rachel's cousin, Leah for lunch.  Leah was in town to see her dad and stepmother.  We ate lunch at Modern Market. 

Yesterday, we took it easy most of the day.  For dinner, we picked up  Rudy's and met Grandma and Papa at the Zilker Hillside Theater to watch a musical.  It's a nice free event.  They just ask for donations.

This morning, Luna's family came to pick her up.  Chewie was sad that Luna left the house.

Then Evan and I went to his first full practice of the season.  We stopped at Donut Taco Palace on the way up.  Evan was the catcher for about half of practice.  He looked good blocking balls.  He was able to pick off a runner who was a little far from third base.  The coaches really want him to be aggressive with his throws this season.

The boys relaxed and then cleaned their rooms and the game room this afternoon.

For dinner, we had waffles and scrambled eggs.

As one last fun thing this summer, we went to Bahama Buck's and got some shaved ice.

The boys are getting ready for bed.

Until next time...

Evan's Class Party

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Torrential rains were predicted for today.  The way the forecasters were talking, we were going to need an ark.  However, when we walked to school this morning, the sun was bright and there were few, if any clouds in the skies.

The new forecast had rain starting around noon or a bit after noon.

I worked from home for a bit and then I went into Aaron's to work on a project we're doing for Microsoft.  Rachel went to get her hair cut.

After Rachel got her hair cut, she went to Evan's class party.  They had pizza.  Rachel said it was nice.  Evan said that after the party they had recess for over an hour.  I guess the teacher really didn't feel like working today (if you think I was insulting the teacher - I was).

We walked to get the boys at 2:30.  The sky had some clouds in it, but the sun was still shining.  It was incredibly hot and humid, but still no rain.

Evan had baseball practice, his last of the season, this afternoon.  We thought it would be cancelled because of this epic rain...but still no rain.  In fact, we got in the full practice without any threat.  Evan played very very well.  He pitched well, he fielded well and he hit well.

Rachel and Noah had dinner at Grandma and Papa's because Leah was in town.  Evan and I went over there after baseball practice and had dinner, though everyone had eaten.

The boys are in bed now.

Until next time...

3rd of July

This morning we hung out at home and then went to Wholy Bagel for lunch.

Around 1:00 Uncle Marvin, Leah, and John came over.  Leah and John are in town for a few days. They all hung out at our house for a little while.

We ate dinner at home and then went to the potluck block party in our cul-de-sac.  We brought an American flag cookie cake that I made along with some other cookies and drinks.  We had a nice time hanging out with neighbors.  At 9:30 we were able to see the fireworks from the nearby golf course.   We stayed out until about 10:30.

The boys are in their rooms now ready for bed.

More Family Fun

Today we had a more relaxing day.  We went out to brunch/lunch at Waterloo.

Late in the afternoon Leah's family and Aaron and Christina came over.

We picked up dinner from Home Slice Pizza.

Evan had a great time playing with Leah's "boys".  Jacob, who is 23, was worn out by Evan and Noah.  They were really tackling each other.

Evan loves playing with the older boys.  He's been having a great time hanging out with older cousins.

Here is a picture from today of Evan and Noah with Leah's boys (Stephen, Jacob, and David).

Family Get Together

This morning we went to Austin Diner for breakfast. We met Leah, John, Jacob, Jay, Hollis, and Hollis' mom there. Afterward we went to Jay and Hollis' house and hung out there for a little bit. They had two little dogs, one of which the boys really loved. It was jumping on and licking the boys. Then, Aaron came with his dog. His dog was "getting pretty friendly" with Olive (the dog that the boys liked). The boys just thought the dogs were fighting. They thought it was funny.

After that we went to Allen's birthday party. It was an Angry Birds backyard party. They had lots of games for the kids to play including a sling shot game. The kids flung a ball to knock down toy bricks like the Angry Birds game. Noah started getting cranky so we left before the party was over.

For dinner we went to Craig O's for pizza and pasta. Noah fell asleep on the way there and slept on Morry for most of dinner. Of course he woke up right as we were ready to leave. He decided he wanted to eat then and not at home. So, we had to wait for him to eat his dinner.

We just got home and now we are going to put the kids to bed.

Here are a few videos from today and yesterday.

Lauren’s Shower

Today we had Lauren’s bridal shower. This morning Sherah and Aunt Susan came early to help out.

The shower started at 11:30am. Everything went smoothly and the food was really good.

Papa took Morry, Evan, and Noah to the airport.

We hung out at the house during the afternoon. Leah, David, Sam/Jay, and Hollis came over for a little bit. They happened to be in town so they stopped by the house.

For dinner, we had Rudy’s at the house and had leftover salad and desserts.

It has been a really long day. It was a nice day, but we are all really exhausted.

Here are the pictures from today.

Marshmallows

I drove Evan to school today and then Noah and I went to HEB to do a little grocery shopping. We needed a few things including a little more Halloween candy.

After HEB I did some cleaning around the house and laundry. I usually try to do laundry and light cleaning (vacuum, mop, straighten up) on Thursdays.

I walked to Evan’s school to pick him up. When I got there all the kids were sitting on the floor and they were doing “Going on a Bear Hunt”. Evan was following along and sitting nicely on the floor with the other kids until he saw me. Evan was excited to see Noah and me. We walked home and I put the boys down for a nap.

While they were napping I talked to Leah on the phone. I called to thank her for some gifts she sent us. One was a truck book that Evan has asked us to read over and over. We only got it a few days ago, but he already knows the book so well that we can leave out words and he’ll fill them in.

For dinner we had already cooked rotisserie chicken and matzoh ball soup. After dinner I made rice crispy treats. While they were cooling Evan enjoyed the little marshmallows. We let him have a couple. I think that was his first time eating a marshmallow. Evan said it was “kinda squishy”.
