Seven quick takes are about all my brain can handle these days... So here's a run down from the week:
1. Susan had a little surgery this week, and just in the knick of time. We've had at least 3 'visiting' cats in our garage in the past 10 days or so. This morning I discovered she had removed her cone yet again overnight and ripped out her stitches. Ouch. So back to the vet we go.
2. With his new taekwondo belt, Vic has earned the right to take a sparring class. He is thrilled and wears his new gear at every opportunity. His little sister takes advantage of every photo op.
3. Finished the book Maria of Guadalupe by Paul Badde. Two thumbs up. Highly recommended.
4. Off to Michigan this weekend for a basketball tournament. I'm driving solo since Daddy has to work. Many thanks to my parents for keeping the little guys for an overnight. Big sister is coming along for moral support (and a new book on her kindle).
5. The weather we've been having is just delightful. I'm certain we'll be heading back to normal temps at some point... But so far this week, we've had 2 days in the 80's.
6. With this lovely weather, we've taken advantage of the swim spa for the first time this season. I meant to take pictures, but, of course, couldn't find the camera.
7. And the last big event of the week... Eustace took Lucy and Victor to a field trip in the sugar bush yesterday, God bless him. It's a half a mile walk back into the woods where they learn all about maple sugaring, get to tap trees and collect sap, and eat pancakes. It's a great experience, but unfortunately, not at all wheelchair-friendly. Anyway, thanks, Daddy, for taking a day off work to do this for your kiddos!!
Linking up with Conversion Diary today!
