So, how was the week you ask? Great! A short work week is always good, but is even better when I only work 2 days!!! So Erin and I went out for a nice dinner on Wednesday evening while Gord was at a Skeet club meeting. Gord has started skeet shooting on Wednesday nights for the summer so he can have the whole weekend at home. Now that he's on his feet again, I don't think he wants to stop!!!
Thursday was the big class trip to the Museum of Civilization. We met up with Kacey and her mom for breakfast ahead of the trip - the girls were WILD!!!!! The day itself was really fun and the kids had a ball. No one got hurt and all were on the bus when we left, so that alone is a victory!! I am once again reminded however, that I am way too old to be riding a school bus - especially the very back seat! I swear the kids should have fallen asleep on the bus or at least early that night, but it seems that most were like Erin - she didn't fall asleep until 10:00pm that night!! Good grief!! I was begging her to go to sleep so I could!!!! Of course, she was subject to a big hike at Sparky's place for Sparks, and all the fresh air didn't tire her out, so there was just no use in fighting it!!!
Friday was a school day and Erin was very excited to have Ms. Hudson as her supply teacher that day! Of course Ms. Hudson was her JK teacher, so she was pleased as punch!! As for me, I had all kinds of grand plans, none of which happened (except for some cleaning of course!) and that was just fine with me!
Saturday was our regular breakfast morning, followed by gymnastics. Erin and I did a bit of grocery shopping before heading home, then we invited Emma and Erika over for a swim. Those girls swam their faces off!!!!! I fed the girls, then they swam some more. I was pooped. Erin stayed up until 9:30pm and the girls even later than that!! Why with all that fresh air???? I don't get it!!!!!
Sunday Erika called and invited Erin to go to church with them. She was game for that, and even got treated to McDonalds for a treat, a big play at their house, and dinner! Again, she didn't fall asleep until 9:30pm! Sigh.... should I just give up? If fresh air doesn't knock the girl out, what hope do we have?!!!!
Anyway, here we are on Monday evening. Erin and Gord have just finished planting her vegetable garden. It looks awesome! Gord made the fanciest fence - meant to be GOAT-PROOF!!!! As you can see below, Minnie is still Minnie!!!!
