Updates and such...

With our crazy busy errand running weeks we have had I have gotten behind in posting anything meaningful as well as getting behind in my photos due to computer problems. So I am going to work from the most recent on back. A few weeks ago some singer/songwriters came to Aidan's school to work on writing music with the kids. Friday evening was their concert. They performed all kinds of songs even songs that the kids helped to write. It was such a fun evening. As we left we bought their CD and both kids already have every song memorized. If anyone comes across Songs by Tom and Stuart, I suggest you pick up a copy. They are great.

Can you find Aidan in this picture? He is wearing a red shirt, in the front row, almost in the middle.

Saturday was Soccer Saturday and the weather was finally sunny and dry to take pictures.

Here are Aidan and team members waiting for the other team to throw the ball in. Ainsley was cold this morning as it was a bit windy at the soccer field. She is the ultimate light blue team soccer fan.

Saturday I did get to get away for some girls day shopping. Fun and productive as well as I was able to get everything on my needs list. Even bra shopping! Exciting I know but necessary. Sunday was a nice quiet Mother's day. We went to the early service at church then to brunch at Perkins where they have the best pancakes on the planet. It seems that about half of my hubby's employees had the same idea. B did quite a bit of catching up in yard work this weekend as well. He rented a sod cutter and cut out the grass for flower beds as well as a vegetable garden. Hopefully the plant man will be at the farmer's market this weekend. He already put in a thornless blackberry bush, blueberry bush, several lilacs, rhodedendrons, and burning bush. I will be excited to get the veggies started as last year we had an excellent haul of tomatoes and peppers. I hope to get some more variety in there not that I have graduated from containers to an actual plot of ground. The stone patio we wanted to put in may need to be put off until next season. Much more expensive than we expected and we already planned to replace our boiler this fall. Looking foward to lower heating bills with the high efficiency system we will be installing. We will see...we have another estimate coming so we will see what they have to say. Well that is the update for now, hopefully I can get my act together and work on more pictures this week and I will post them as I have them done. Later taters!
