I've lost track of time. Here it is Thursday already! Let's see if I can recap some of this week. Not much has happened. Monday was busy as our Monday's always are. Kaden had scouts, but he also had basketball. We chose BB this time. Scouts was the district fundraiser pack meeting, and the kids were making valentine's. We figure he could miss it. We dropped Kaden off at bb at 6:30, then headed to the cub scout meeting to chat for a few and drop a couple things off to the cubmaster. Then Salem had a meeting with a Troop we're interested in at 7pm, so we headed over that way. Keith stayed until 7:20 then went to pick Kaden up from his practice then came back to Salem's meeting with me. That went on until 8:30. The boys did some stuff with the troop and the adults talked with the soon to be new cubmaster and had questions answered. It was a night they invited a bunch of new potential cubs to join them, so there was quite a few kids. They even let Kaden in on some stuff, which was nice.
We really seem to like this troop! They have a bunch of kids, around 20+, they have a great group of adults and seem to have things together!! Salem also knows a couple kids that are going to this troop as well, so he likes it because of that!
Kids finally got to bed around 9pm, and they slept in until 7am the next morning!!
Tuesday was normal, school and all. Tuesday night was the high school basketball game where the youth basketball kids were to be introduced. Nothing fancy, but we went and Kaden had him moment in glory at halftime. We arrived during the last few minutes of the jv game and Kaden saw some of his team standing on the floor and wanted to go join them saying I was going to make him miss his announcement. I told him no, they would let us know when you are to go, so he had a little fit over that one, ugh! Kids didn't enjoy the game too much, which kind of surprised me. I thought Kaden would be all over it since he's never been to a game. They finally started to really watch and cheer after halftime. I think Kaden wanted to do his thing and then he'd be happy and he was. Marion won, although I can't remember the score. Not sure if we'll go to another game or not. Ended up being another late night, I think it was almost 10pm before they were asleep!
Yesterday they had an early out...a scheduled one, not due to weather or anything! After I picked Kaden up we went to Walmart and used Keith's race winnings from his roller race on Sunday to buy Open Season 2! But the rule was the kids had to have their playroom picked up by 6pm or we wouldn't watch it that night! They farted around for quite a while with me yelling reminders at them. Finally they kicked it up a notch and with a bit of my help got it done. It's not perfect and it needs some more cleaning, but I was able to get the vacuum in there and not suck up all the legos and knex pieces! We need to go through and get rid of some older toys and get it better organized for them. But it worked for then!
So last night we sat down to some pizza and fruit salad and watched Open Season 2. Not a bad movie at all. Not super funny all the time, but very cute. I loved the bunny fight (sorry mom)! I'm sure we'll watch it again and the kids will watch it even more often!!
I've gotta run now to go volunteer at Kaden's school for a bit, then a friend of ours is in town and she's stopping by for a bit. We're also in the process of cleaning the house, ugh! It's gotten too messy and needs to be done head to toe. Like spring cleaning, but in the middle of winter. Alright...until next time!
