What an enjoyable weekend we had! I did the usual, boring things on Saturday (such as grocery shopping and Target) while Tony worked on fixing the back stairs. The kids found activities to occupy themselves and stayed out of trouble for the most part. I feel like we're turning a corner as far as letting the big kids play outside. Since this neighborhood is pretty isolated, we've let the kids go off and play down the street and ride their bikes around the circle. It's starting to become more like it was when I was little (although they will never be allowed to leave at 8am and come home for lunch without me knowing where they are!). There are SO many kids in this neighborhood, that it'd be nice to see them playing in the street together.
Yesterday, we went to Melrose to visit Tony's parents. Nick's 72nd birthday was Thursday so we celebrated with pasta and cake! Tony and Nick went over to Leslie's to help remove some shelves in the basement and when they returned, Grampa got brave and offered to take the kids to the park-alone! I guess it went well. Tony went to help round them up when the skies darkened and stormy weather approached.
Today begins our first full week home on vacation. Yeah! Nana and Grampa arrive for a visit on Wednesday and we're all very excited. More on that later!
