This morning we took it easy. We ate brunch at home. Noah and I had omelets. Evan had scrambled eggs. Morry had garlic bread.
Early afternoon we left for the outlets in San Marcos.
It was a long afternoon. We bought shoes for all of us, socks for the boys and Morry, some clothes. The deals weren't as good as last year, but we still did pretty well.
The boys convinced us to go to Cracker Barrel for dinner. It was convenient, so we gave in. They ate very well. The both had fried shrimp, broccoli, and apples.
Now the boys should be getting ready for bed. They just had tea and dessert.

Birthday and Shopping
Yesterday was my birthday. I had a nice day. The kids were in camp for most of the day.
For brunch Morry and I went to Snooze AM. We both had very good pancakes.
For dinner Morry, the kids, and I went to the Melting Pot. We had a good time there and the kids ate really well.
Today, we took it easy in the morning. Evan and I walked to the school and he played on the basketball court for a little bit.
In the afternoon we went to a Taco Cabana opening party in Kyle, Texas. I got invited as a blogger to come to the party. We got our meal comped, in exchanged for me writing about the event and new restaurant location. It was surprisingly good. We went in with low expectations and were pleasantly surprised. We all liked our food.
From there, we went to the outlet malls in San Marcos. We did pretty well there. We got some good deals and bought things for all of us there.
We got home around 10pm.
The kids are getting ready for bed now.
Here are some pictures from yesterday and today.

San Marcos Shopping
Evan, Noah, and I went to San Marcos to the Outlets today. We were looking for pajamas, shorts, and socks for the boys. We got a few things, but the deals weren't so good today for some reason.
I packed a lunch thinking we might be able to have a picnic somewhere. We were running out of time and the weather wasn't so great. It was overcast and a little bit cool. So, we just ate our lunch in the car on the way home.
When we got home I started getting dinner ready.
I tutored one student and then came home.
We had meatballs and rice for dinner.
After dinner Morry went to the Volkswagen car dealership in Georgetown. He wanted to negotiate a deal in person. It sounds like he worked something out to lease a CC. He's on his way home now and the car will come in in a few days.
The boys are ready for bed and are supposed to be in their rooms, but they keep coming up with excuses.

Outlets
Hello everyone, this is Morry. Saturday is normally my day to write the blog.
The boys let us sleep in a bit this morning. Evan woke up around 9am. Rachel and I both got up and got him dressed.
This morning was the Circle C-wide garage sale where they encourage everyone in the neighborhood who wants to have a sale, to have it today. Unfortunately, it rained all day yesterday and was raining up until about 8:30am. Rachel thought she'd drive around with Evan anyway.
We let Noah sleep and he ended up sleeping until after 10am. Last night, he was up fairly late. I finally had to rock him to sleep around 10:15pm. So I wasn't surprised he slept later than normal.
Rachel and Evan got back very quickly from the garage sale. I guess everyone literally had the stuff in their garage so it was hard to pick through and Evan decided he wanted to come home. Not before he asked Rachel to buy him a donut from some girls that were selling donuts for 50 cents.
We all had some breakfast and drove down to the outlets in San Marcos. We had been there a month or so ago and gotten some stuff from the Gap and decided we didn't want it. We had to go down and return it. While we were there, we stopped in Carters, Children's Place and Adidas. Carters didn't have anything for the boys. They needed jeans. We were able to find jeans for them at Children's Place. We also found dress shirts and sweaters for $1.99 each. I got some stuff at Adidas.
We had lunch at Wendy's where Evan was very good and had his nuggets and then he got a Frosty afterwards.
When we got home, we received some bad news. Everyone assumed that Mottel's weight loss was due to hyperthyroidism. Even the Vet said she would be shocked if it was anything else. He had lost 3 pounds in a year which was 30% of his body weight. He went from 10 pounds to 7. Anyway, the Vet had left a message that the blood test came back and it was not hyperthyroidism. Now, we are not sure what it is. Some blood levels suggest maybe liver problems, some suggest maybe kidney problems, and some suggest perhaps small intestine problems. I have to bring Mottel back in this week for more tests. We just can't believe that Mottel is sick. He's not acting sick in the least. In fact, he's probably more active and more friendly than he's been in awhile. For those of you who don't know, Mottel has been with me for 11 years. He moved down with me from Pittsburgh. Hopefully we can get this figured out and it's nothing too serious.
The boys took naps after we got home. I did some work (I'm very very busy at work now) and Rachel made some calls for Cha Cha.
For dinner we went to Texadelphia and ate outside. It's been a long time since we went there, and we thought it was something different. Plus Rachel found a buy one get one free coupon.
When we got home, we gave the boys baths and now they are in bed. Noah has been crying. He is really into doing what he wants when he wants and he obviously did not want to go to bed.
Until next time...
