Mostly Easy Day

We mostly took it easy today.

Morry and Evan went to a memorial service.  Noah and I stayed home.

We had our yard sprayed for mosquitoes.  It's supposed to be a mostly natural spray made out of garlic.  We'll see if it really works.

Later in the afternoon we all went to CVS and then picked up dinner from Sap's.

We ate dinner outside and I only got a few mosquito bites.

The boys are getting ready for bed now.

In Search of Shaved Ice

This morning Noah threw a mini fit.  He didn't want to get dressed and didn't want to go to school.  Morry buckled him in the car for me.

Evan came with me to drop Noah off at school and then we went to Bed Bath and Beyond to exchanged the beverage dispenser.  I also picked up my new glasses from the eye doctor.

At home, Evan played Wii while I worked cleaning the panty.  I only got through the bottom/floor.  It took most of the morning until it was time to get Noah.

Morry came with us to pick up Noah.  Evan and Noah were excited to see each other.

We took it easy at home this afternoon.

For dinner we made fried rice.

After dinner Morry suggested we go to Blizzy's for shaved ice.  It was closed.  It closes at 7:30pm now.  So, we knew of another snow cone place near HEB and decided to try it out. I was good.  They had lots of chair for sitting outside, but I had to go in the car after a little while.  Even though I sprayed myself with bug spray I was still getting bit up.

The boys are ready for bed now, but not asleep.

Pictures and Videos

So, today we just stayed at home and took it easy. For a little bit, I took the boys in the backyard to play on the slip n slide. The mosquito are horrible. For some reason I always get bitten up. I counted 18 mosquito bites. I couldn't take it much longer so I decided it was time for lunch.

Evan and Noah were good today. Noah took a good nap.

So, here are some pictures and video from Lauren and Shayne's wedding and the weekend.

Sams Club

This morning Evan and Noah slept until about 10:00. I think it helped that they had a busy day yesterday. We need to keep wearing them out.

Around noon we went to Sams Club. We were there quite a while. The boys had a good time. There were tons of samples out and they pretty much had their lunch there. Evan was begging us the whole time for a soft pretzel. So, when we finished shopping we got him one to share with Noah, but Noah didn’t want any.

On the way home we stopped at TJ Maxx so I could run in and return a few things.

Once we got home we put Noah down for a nap.

Evan watched a Scooby Doo movie we got at Sams for $4.

For dinner we had leftover brisket and leftover Homeslice garlic knots.

After dinner we took a walk. The plan was to walk the Doswell loop, but as soon as we were a few houses away Evan said he needed to go to the bathroom. He must have not needed to go too bad because he wanted to walk around the block first. Evan and Noah walked the whole way around the block. I brought the stroller but they didn’t sit in it.

When we got home Evan went to the bathroom and then came back out in the front yard. We were going to play outside for a little bit, but the mosquitoes were eating me alive.

Now we are going upstairs to give the boys baths and put them to bed.
