My Weekend

This is what has happened in my life this weekend.

Tuesday and Thursday were the final concerts for orchestra. I am sad. All of my classes that performed were on Thursday.

After the Thursday performance, we three older kids went putt-putt golfing with some of our friends from our orchestras and choirs that performed that night. I had a fun time though. Got to hang out with friends for pretty much the last time. We got there around 9. We didn’t leave until about 11:30. I know, three hours. It was almost one by the time we had dropped of two of our friends that came with us that we got to go home. It was a little after one when we went to bed.

You can go on you tube and watch some videos of the choirs and orchestras playing.

Friday was, let us say, different. Without going to orchestra on Fridays is going to take some getting used to. That night the whole family went to our church music practice, and then we went to Pizza Hut for dinner. After that, we went home. That night, around 8:30/9, Kara, Maddie, Emi, and I all decided that we would watch a move. It was “Far and Away.” It is a Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman movie made in 1992. I would defiantly NOT recommend it if you freak out about blood. So it was 11:30 by the time the movie was over.

Saturday, I went to a horse clinic over at one of our friends’ house, the S’s. I had a great time!! I learned a lot. I also helped them by going on some tours to see the baby foals. While I was opening gates I was looking for what I would “like” to get if I could get a horse. I got a nice sun-burn from doing that.

Saturday was also Becca’s 11th birthday.

Yesterday went on like a normal Sunday.

Today, really nothing to tell. Oh, we opened our pool yesterday. So it will be a matter of days before I will attempt to get in. Although the kids were talking about getting in today. My parents are actually thinking about letting them. Crazy people.

Well, I think that is it for now.

The Pool

We worked all day yesterday and Saturday to get the ground ready for the pool. The unfortunate part of it is it started raining last night. It is going to rain all day. The only days that we would be able to do it is Tuesday and Wednesday. The weekend, Thursday through Sunday, it will rain, so they tell us. Not to mention that my dad is going to be gone on a business trip on Wednesday, so that would only leave Tuesday to do everything that we need done. Which won't happen. The ground will be too wet for that. The hole that we have right now is FULL of water. So we made a joke that that is our pool. Though it looks more like a pond than a pool.

I can't remember if I posted this or not. More likely not, but Maddie got a fish tank for her B-day!!!! She got it Friday, so I think. She can correct me if I'm wrong. Today we are going to get her some fish. For the fish that she saw when she got the tank she didn't like. I don't know what kind or species she wants, so I'll let her put in all those little details. Her blog is on my favorites.

More on the Lord of the Rings

I still have not watched the Two Towers. Hopefully, it will be soon.

We are getting a pool!!!!!!!!!! It will be fun, fun, fun. Now we won't have to wait to go to our grandparents house to swim.
