Football and Baseball

This morning Noah had a football game at 11am.  Grandma and Papa met us there.  Noah played well.

We relaxed at home for a little bit and then Evan had his first baseball game at 4:45 in Taylor.  He rode with Reed there.  Morry and I went separately.  Noah and I rode with Grandma and Papa.

Evan played well, but the team lost the first game.

Grandma, Papa, Noah and I left after the first game and met Aunt Susan for dinner at Mellow Mushroom.

Evan's team won the second game at 6:30.  After that Morry and Evan ate at Popeye's for dinner.

Now the boys are in bed.

Here are some pictures from today.

Science Day + Photography

This morning we walked the kids to school.

A little while later, I walked back to school for Evan's 5th grade science day.   Grandma also came to the school.  The kids rotated classrooms and participated in various science experiments and hands-on activities.  Evan seemed to have a really good time and liked having us there.  It was nice.

As I left the school, there was an exhibit up with the kids' photography.  I was very impressed.  They took pictures around the school campus and then added commentary to their photos.  I took pictures of Evan's pictures.  If you zoom in you might be able to see what he wrote.

From there, Morry picked me up and we got lunch at Wholy Bagel.

We walked to pick up the kids.  Both went over to friends houses after school.

I picked up Noah from Jude's at 4:20 and brought him to football practice.

Wade's mom dropped Evan off around 4:30 and then Morry took them to meet Reed's mom, who then took them to baseball practice.

Morry picked up Noah from practice, got Evan at his practice, and then they picked up pizza on the way home.

While they were gone I practice some of the photography tips I learned from the class.  I still have more to learn, but it did seem to help a lot.

Whey they got home we ate dinner while we watched a Lemony Snicket episode.

Now the boys are in bed.

Here are some pictures from today.

Going, going, ...

This morning we walked the kids to school and then went to Camp Gladiator.

From there, I stopped at Starbucks to get gift cards for the kids' teachers for Teacher Appreciation week.

Then, I tutored.

Next, I stopped at the vet to pick up more food for Flash.

After that, I met a friend for lunch at Crema.

Then, I stopped at HEB.  There were a lot of things we needed since we hadn't been in a while.

When I got home, I quickly put the refrigerated foods away and then we walked to pick up the kids.

I was home for a few minutes, and then it was time to leave again for tutoring.  I tutored two students.

Morry took Evan, Reed, and Noah to the boys baseball lesson.

I got home around 7:15 and we started making dinner.

We ate dinner outside.

Now the boys are in bed.

Noah's appointment

This morning we walked to school.

Around 11:20 I picked up Noah from school and took him to his therapy appointment.  It seemed to go well.  They worked with the biofeedback device and I think talked about breathing exercises.

I dropped Noah back off at school and had about an hour before we had leave again for pickup.

Morry and I walked to pick up the boys.

The boys went to Grandma's house for just a little while before Evan had to leave for practice.

I tutored.

When I got home I started getting dinner ready.

Noah and Morry got home around 7:15 and we finished making dinner.

We ate outside.

The kids played in the yard some after dinner.

Now they are getting ready for bed.

Dinner Separately

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

There was no drama on the way to school this morning.  Rachel and I were happy about that.

After Camp Gladiator, I came home and Rachel went to tutor.

Rachel thought she might stop at HEB after tutoring, but she decided to come home and rest.

Both Rachel and I walked to get the boys.  Rachel had to run into the school for a minute to see if they had a form which they did not.

Evan and Noah went over to Grandma's after school.  Rachel left to go to tutor.  I picked Evan up after a while and took him to meet Reid's mom who took him to practice.

Noah had dinner with Grandma.  Reid's mom picked up Chick-Fil-A for Evan and the other boys after practice.  Rachel went to a photography course that was given to bloggers.  I ended up getting Chick-Fil-A for myself and some nuggets for Noah while we waited to meet Reid's mom.

The boys are about to go to bed and Rachel is coming home from the photography course.

Until next time...

A Normal Day

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Today was a fairly normal day.  We were not overly busy, we didn't have to rush anywhere.  We walked the boys to school and then went to Camp Gladiator.  Rachel did not have to tutor after it so we drove together and came home.

I worked all day long, though I did have several phone meetings.  Rachel did some work and the rested.

Rachel did have to leave to tutor before pick the boys up from school so I went alone.  The boys were in a good mood as we walked home from school.

For dinner we had some leftovers.  Then we walked to Grandma and Papa's to get the camera that Papa was letting Rachel borrow.  Papa is in Dallas this week though.  Lizzy joined us on our walk over there.

When we came home, the boys played for a bit and then went to bed.

Until next time...
