Weekend

Friday night started with a home football game.  Owen brought a friend (who likes to tackle and wrestle as much as he does). 

Beginning of the night:  Just finished a  nourishing dinner of hot dogs, nachos and Laffy Taffy ropes. 
Middle of the Night:  Playing 5-year-old football on the hill while being egged on by the older kids.  Two sweaty, dirty boys!
End of the Night:  I had to lie and tell them the hill was closed for the night to get them to settle down before going home.  Unfortunately, this was the Indians' first loss.
Adam went to a class in KC Sat/Sun.  Saturday morning we made two trips to Target and one to Wal-Mart to hunt down Halloween costumes.  We also hit City Park for at least an hour, and the mall briefly, and my junk store where I picked up some great items (more to come on that later).  As for Halloween, I wanted to think of something really clever for them to be, but they like to wear these dress up suits, so what can you do?  Miles is the "evil" Spider Man and Owen is the "good" Spider Man.
Saturday night I was able to join some friends for a much deserved (aren't they always?) girls night out.  We had fun despite feeling old :) 

On Sunday, we hit the park again (this time for even longer, the new toys are great), and lucky Owen got invited to go play with Cade.  Miles and I developed pictures--finally--and mowed, walked the dogs, and cleaned my car.  I'm taking advantage that we don't have students tomorrow so I can do work here instead of grading--save that for tomorrow!
