The Week in Review

I don't get a chance these days to post on the regular happenings here at the homestead, so I'll try to summarize what has been going on:

We got seed and straw for the yard, so the grass is coming in nicely. That was about 3 weeks ago, though. T

he basketball hoop was installed yesterday (in-ground) and the playset is scheduled to be constructed sometime soon.

There were several baseball games, mostly wins, though they did get beat by a 10U team. The game on Sunday was cancelled.

John turned 10 on Saturday. How time flies.

A family friend was in a very bad motorcycle accident and has been through several surgeries the past week. Her family has been spending nearly all their time at the hospital. We were host to two of her grandchildren for the better part of the week, 10 year old and 6 year old boys who play baseball. Needless to say, our kids had a great time with their new playmates. All the boys slept together in the boys' room. It wasn't nearly as difficult cooking for 10 as I thought it would, despite the 10 year old having a very healthy appetite. :-)

Oh yeah...one last thing.

I'm pregnant. I passed the test with flying colors yesterday afternoon. Looks like its time for a new van.
