Man oh man has it been a crazy weekend. I usually love the hassle and challenge of Saturday games and the weekly Sams trip but this weekend was crazy. Saturday started with a 6:30 wake up, straighten up the house, and realized that I had hurry and get the kids and the hubby together to head off to the park. Eider never wants to get out of the bed so I was expected a fight. He got up and off we went. Keelie had a 9am soccer game on one field and Kadin had to be on the baseball field by 8:30am. UGH!! Can you say a little crazy. I have never missed one of Keelie's soccer games, but Kadin's games are another story. Usually he plays at night time and I have been working most nights lately so I have only gotten to see about 3 games from start to finish. Not sure about you but I feel as thought I have missed some of his first steps. I went to get Keelie organized and off to Kadin's game I headed. I really enjoy watching him play baseball. It makes me miss those days down at Crestview park, hanging out with Lindsey Hardin, Mandy Davis, Suzanne West and all the softball girls. As I watch my recently turned 5 year old put his glove on his head, play in the dirt, or watch the continual planes fly over, I got sad. He is growing up to fast. They all do don't they? So after a few minutes my husband, Eider, took off for the soccer field to check up on Keelie. She is such a good soccer player. She takes after her beloved dad
dy. He came back and said that she was scoring goals like crazy, so we swapped. I went to the soccer field and he stayed at the baseball field. By this point I realized that I should have not worn flip flops and maybe should have traded them in for running shoes. She scored 5 goals and they won their game. I love that celebratory smile that she wears when she is proud of herself. Her game ended and we headed over to Kadin. He won his game 6 to 5. He made his first double which I got to see. I realized that I have to make more time to spend with him at his games. By 11 o'clock we were headed home. Eider had to be at work by 11 so we said our goodbyes and me and the kids headed for Hot Dog World. (That is a whole nother post in it self) :) We ate and off to Lowe's for mulch, then to Sams for the usually bulk items. Five milks, two 18 packs of eggs, a case of mangos, bread, chicken breasts, salmon, and the biggest thing of laundry detergent they offer. Boys they are so messy. Back to the house to unload and put everything up. Then the yard work AHHHHHH!!! We mulched and weeded, then mulched and weeded some more. I was tired and crashed that night. On Sunday afternoon I was happier than I have been in a long time. Eider soccer game got cancelled for rain. OH YEAH!!! I thought that this meant a nice quiet afternoon. WRONG! I forgot that I was supposed to met at a friend house and work on PTO stuff and my dearly beloved started cutting grass. PLEASE NO MORE! I tried to hurry to get it all done, but I never before thought that I would pray for Monday. I forgot how much I love a schedule. This fly by the seat of my pants stuff is not for me. :)
