Weekend Rewind

Howdy-ho!

I can't think of a good opening, so I'm just going to dive right in.

Friday evening I took the kids to the Arts & Wine Festival in Grove City. 

Wine samples and babies.  

Saturday GMac went to a work thing with Emmy, then we went to the pool.  Since the water level is so low (yay for pipes bursting!) GMac was able to touch the bottom of the three feet without losing his cool. 

We had our Father's Day meal that evening because it just worked better for everyone's schedule.  Then we watched a storm roll in while Emily worked on Clover's puppy training.

Sunday we churched and I took the kids to the pool while C spent some time with Dex (Dex gets cranky in the hot weather). Monkey swam to the steps in the 4-feet (several times)! It's amazing was three days of swim lessons can do. 

I was able to spend 10 minutes reading with a glass of wine. 

It was heaven. 

C had to go to work after dinner, so the kids and I took ice cream to Mom and Dad's house.  Then I let them finish watching a movie in our bed.  Two things. One - GMac has been having issues with the dark.  Major issues.  Two - C's been working late for the last week and a half (like home around 12:30 a.m. if we're lucky - last night was 11:30 p.m.!! - and 2:00 a.m. if we're not lucky) so the house is a M E S S and bed times are also a M E S S (wherever I can get them to sleep) and Mommy is a bit of a M E S S.
