hello everyone

Another busy weekend. Yesterday I had work from 9:30-12:00. I left there and went and picked up KK from her school car wash fundraiser. She was having lots of fun and did not want to leave. They are trying to earn enough money so they can go on a Jet boat field trip. they would all board jet boats and take a tour under all the bridges. before they start their bridge project mid May. Grandpa took a few pictures for me and as soon as get them from him I will post them. Jake's t-ball game was canceled due to the weather, so Erik got a bit of a break. I put them all to work doing some cleaning in the house to get it ready for a daycare interview. We had a quick storm that came through around 3:30ish and had wind gust up to 60 mph with rain and hail. Our street looked like a river flowing down hill. We were worried about more branches falling but luckily nothing came down. Jake had his eye exam yesterday and will recieve his glasses in couple of weeks. (darn it) He was cute though. He jumped right up on the chair, did what he was asked and then when it came time to pick out his glasses the only ones he would even look at were ones that had a sponge bob pictures on the lenes (nickelodeon brand). He picked out a pair and wanted to take them home right away. We will see if he is this excited over them in couple of weeks when he has to wear them all the time. We ended the day with a nice relaxing evening doing absulutly nothing.

Sunday
I went to work like normal and Sean and Erik headed to Sean's soccer game. the other team scored 1st on a penalty kick, then Sean's team scored tieing it up. I got there right after the 2nd half started and it went way down hill from there. they let the other team score bringing it to 1-2 and then they just kept on scoring. we lost 6-1. so they are out of the state cup. Not bad though they went from wining division 1 to being one of the top 4 teams in State cup. most of the teams that they were playing were gold and silver league teams. So maybe next year will be their year. For now we get a break from soccer for a week and then they will start preparing for summer tournaments. Tonight I am making a big dinner for Erik's birthday. And a few of my family will be coming over to hang out and eat.
