Post game treat

First soccer practice of the season. The boys got a good coach, and they got the same team. Yay for the parents! Next year will be different, but that's next year.

After months of dreaming and saving pennies (literally!), they decided and ordered the toy. It came early! Over a whole week early! A QUICK march to the store where the clerk saw them coming and went straight to the back to get the box, they are now sprawled on the living room floor in various stages of "experimenting" with the different parts. I'm not sure how patient they will be with the process of assembly. I have my guess on who will be left holding the wrench. And who will be the first to leave.

A pleasant May long weekend was had by all. A little birthday cake, a little walking and biking, some house cleaning, some driving and house-looking, pancakes, mango pie and roast chicken (not in that order)
