what a week...besides hectic work schedules and evening routines including dinner making, bath giving, playing, reading, laundry upkeep and cleaning, we had a busy week...

wednesday; potluck at kindergarten - all the kids brought a fruit or vegetable beginning with the letter of their first, middle or last name (max brought a mango).

thursday evening; back to school parent meeting at st. martin - meeting with the teachers to learn what's planned for the rest of the semester and view what our children have worked on so far (i went together with the grumplemeeses while brent stayed home).

friday; mrs. davis' (kindergarten teacher/helper) birthday was celebrated - all the kids brought a card and a flower from their garden.  the gift wrap fundraising sale for the school ended and all the orders and money turned in.

friday night; brent and i attended a party and emeline watched the boys (great party and the boys had so much fun).

saturday morning; CAbi event at my place - soraya presented the fall collection which was supercool.  a great group of ladies hung out and shopped and had a nice time.  the weather was amazing.

sunday - it is 12:30 pm and the kids are still wearing pajamas.  we have just played and relaxed and hung out all morning.  the weather is amazing, the music is playing and i'm sitting in our backyard.  the kids are taking turns riding the skateboard under supervision of brent.  it is time to serve up some lunch and thereafter, finn will need to nap.  who knows what's in store for the rest of the day and evening.  maybe a bike ride or walk around the neighborhood.

tomorrow, it all starts over again!
