This weekend

It's been a really long week! With school starting and getting back into the swing of things, it was hard to get motivated this weekend to do anything. We went to a birthday party at Pump it up on Saturday, then napped, then to the pool for a little while, then to a demolition derby.
A couple friends met us at the speedway so the boys had a ton of friends with them, which made it even more fun. They had drifting cars (lame) a rollover contest, a boat race, which was hilarious, demolition derby, powder puff racing, a losers race and then the best one was when they put skis on the back wheels of front wheel drive cars. The boys paid rapt attention the whole time and were cheering and very loud! Laurel just clung to me but eventually fell asleep since we were there until midnight!
Today, I had to make it the grocery store since we were out of everything! Carter played his first minor league baseball game as well. While we are not doing fall ball, our park's team was short players due to illnesses so he filled in. He did a really good job, although was nervous about playing up without having had any practice. But he did great!
Afterwards, we went to the creek and then home where we grilled out the best steaks! A friend of mine had given us some mesquite charcoal and wood chips and they were SO GOOD! I made potatoes and corn to go with it. Today at the store I also bought a box of clementines and the boys have eaten half of them already! Guess I need to get more while they are on sale!
This week is going to be a kicker since we actually start homework now. Carter's class also gets to go swimming every day for the next two weeks during PE. I know he will love that!
