The past week has been busy with friends and cousins. My uncle Scott and his two kids(Matthew and Ethan) came out for a few days to visit. We went to the beach with them, Blake went to the movies with them and we had dinner at my parents one evening with them while the kids played and had a good time. That particular evening we also had the Austin girls, Delaney and Carley staying with us while their parents were at the hospital with Greg's dad. Thankfully, he is o.k. now, but it was quite a scare for all of them. So that day and night we got to have the girls stay with us. They are such a pleasure to have around and our kids love them so much!
Last week we also went to see the Walking with Dinosaurs show at the Honda Center. We went with a family at the preschool who have two little boys who love dinosaurs and with Princeen (my boss), her husband and their son Brady, who my kids adore, especially Amanda. That night was fun and the kids had a blast.
School is starting on Thursday. Hurray! I can't wait to get back to a normal schedule again. Amanda is excited to be starting Kindergarten at her "brother's school" and Blake is going to be going into second grade. Blake on the other hand isn't too excited and doesn't understand why it is so important that he go to school. I don't think he is looking forward to doing all the work again, even though he does so well at it. Oh well, such is life. He will have to get over it. While the kids are at school, Lauren will be at home with me enjoying the peace and quiet for a few hours (until Amanda gets home at 11:40). We will still be squeezing in naps, homework for two everyday, going to soccer and baseball practices and having games during the week. I am ready for another fun and busy year.

Peace and quiet with just Lauren for a few hours a day. Bet you're looking forward to it. Sounds nice.
