Laziness
Posted in 1 :: Joe, 2 :: Julie, 3 :: Jared Jerome, 4 :: Joshua Josiah, 5 :: Alicia Marie, 6 :: Amanda Rose, Post Count on 03/10/2010 10:20 am by JulieI think I am enjoying this spring vacation way too much, and am getting so very lazy. *lol* I need to get better about coming here to post, and I also need to get better about the blog-hopping thing… I don’t want Facebook to take over my blog, but sometimes I fear that is what’s happening! So not a good thing! … It’s just that I get more responses off facebook, than I do here on the blog, so I tend to go there… For the “attention”, I guess. *lol*
We had an OK weekend…
The boys had their bowling league on Saturday morning. They both bowled well, and got over their average in every game… We don’t know if their team won the games or not, because one of their team-mates was gone. We’re assuming that he post-bowled, and we’ll find out how the games went on this Saturday… Up until last Saturday the boys’ team (The Cougars) were in 1st place… I’m hoping that they still are, as it would make the boys SO HAPPY if they finished in 1st.
The season (for the bowling league) is almost over. They have 2 more weeks of regular league games (3 games a week), and then on Saturday the 27th they are giving out the awards and such… Let’s just hope that THIS TIME, they don’t give Jared’s patches to Josh. 
… It’s a good thing that I keep track of their points myself, so that I can double check things!
It’s going to be weird not to go to league games on Saturday anymore (until next September)… All four of the kids are joining the summer league, but that will be on Sunday evenings.
Did I mention that we got the kids (and myself) a portable DVD player?!?! I know I mentioned it on facebook, but I can’t remember if I mentioned it here… Anyway, it’s a 7 inch sony… We took it to the bowling alley with us, and the girls got to watch “Underdog” while the boys bowled… They LOVED that! 
Anyway… After bowling was over, the girls and I went with Debbie and Jamie to Leann’s bridal shower… It wasn’t too bad… Kyle took the dog with him when he left, which was a huge plus! … Though, for the short time the dog was in the house (to go from the back yard to the front door), who do you think the dog made a bee-line for?… You guessed it… Me! *sigh*
But the shower itself was kinda fun. They played some silly games and people were joking around. Leann got some nice gifts too! … I was stressed about what we gave her. *lol* … Kyle and Leann had registered at Bed, Bath, and Beyond so I had gone online and ordered something off the registry. Since it had free shipping, I decided to have it gift wrapped… It seemed like a good idea at the time… But then after it came, I got to thinking… What if it broke in transit, and I wouldn’t be able to tell, since it’s already wrapped… Then, on the way to the shower, I got to thinking… What if they sent me the wrong thing, and I wouldn’t be able to tell, since it’s already wrapped… It was very stressful! *rofl* … I’m never having something giftwrapped again! 
While the girls and I were at the shower, Joe and the boys (along with Scott and Jacob) went to Wunderland (nickle archades) and then out to dinner at Taco Bell… While at the archades Joe won me a stuffed animal for the first time… It’s silly really. It’s an orange pirate octopus… Only it only has 5 tenticles, so I told the girls that it can’t be an octopus, and that it must be a quintapus. *lol*
After church on Sunday, we took the boys over to Scott and Debbie’s, so that they could spend the night with the twins (who don’t have school this week, due to parent/teacher conferences). We then took the girls out to lunch at McDonald’s (no worries, I had a salad). We spent the rest of the day bumming at home.
Joe is on vacation this next week, so we decided that we needed to do something fun! … So on Sunday we’re heading to Lincoln City, and are going to stay over-night at the D-Sands motel!!! The D-Sands is right on the beach, and all the rooms have an ocean view. (Joe and I used to stay there a lot when we were first married.) The rooms also have small kitchens in them, and there is an indoor pool… We haven’t told the kids yet, but they are going to be SO EXCITED. Not only do they get to play on the beach, but they get to swim too. … I am pretty excited myself. We haven’t stayed at a motel at the beach in YEARS… The kids never have.
Well, I should get myself some breakfast… I’ll be by later to do some blog hopping. 
… Catch ya on the flip side!
