Saturdays

Steve and I spend every Saturday and some Friday evenings in the months of December, January, and February attending our two oldest son's basketball games. We have a great time watching each of them play. Every game they get better and improve. This last weekend, they both played games on Friday and Saturday! They both won their games on Saturday by considerable margins. We were very proud of them, they both scored points and had some great plays.
There are Saturdays that the games are the same time and Steve and I have to split up and go seperate ways. Our youngest son has to tag along and spends a lot of his time complaining about having to sit and watch. We know he really enjoys it! :0)
If you have ever watched recreational basketball leagues play at these young ages, you know what I mean when I say...hilarious, funny, inspiring, and enjoyable!

Another Four Years!

So here I am being "sworn in" for another four years as a Tualatin City Councilor. It has been a pleasure serving in the community for the last two years and I look forward to the next four years. It is very interesting and enlightening to be a city councilor. Oh, the things that you learn! The people that you meet! The good times and the bad times...
Well, here's to another four years!

What a glorious day! After three long weeks, the kids went back to school today. :0)
We had an extended Christmas holiday because of the record snow fall. We were couped up in the house for far too long. It was fun for the most part. We played games and put together puzzles. Oh, but what a relief to have them all back in school and Mom gets a break.
So I got my little chillins off to school and went and enjoyed an hour of exercise with the ladies. Zumba rocks! Then I went and took the dry cleaning to the cleaners, came home and showered, waited for the appraiser to come, then ran some errands to the City offices. It was just one of those days, but completely normal and complaint free. No whining, bickering, etc. I know you Moms out there know what I mean. It felt so good, I even made chicken enchiladas for dinner for my wonderful, loving family. Then we played our new favorite game, Killer Bunnies. I hope you all enjoyed the vacation and the end of it, as I did.
