Back on Track

 Apparently I forgot to blog last week.  Not sure how one just randomly forgets something that they have done for the last 12 years, but here we are none the less. Perhaps it is because Merrick started back at basketball and we were off at a tournament for a good chunk of the day.  This year Merrick is on the select A team.  It's going to be a big commitment, with tournaments in Washington, Phoenix, and LA.  His first tournament went well with big wins in both games.  Merrick held his own with the A team but did have an incident in the first game (and one at practice this week too).  We are very anxious for Dec. 8th to come.



Since it has been a solid two weeks, this may be a little random as I try to recap the highlights. Maybe lets start with the sleeping highlights.  The girls have been mixing things up on the sleeping front, sleeping on the trundle bed and making forts after they have supposedly gone to bed.  My most favorite though was a sweet surprise I got when I went to check on them one night.



The biggest highlight of the last two weeks was Jeremy's birthday.  We celebrated with a special dinner and dessert and of course presents.  The big gift this year was a heated jackets for all the upcoming freezing baseball games.  CC was really excited to give her gift, she entered for a chance to win a family trip to Disneyworld.  Despite my best effort, I can't convince her that she isn't likely to win.  She also made this classic drawing of him for his special day.





Other highlights include Millie snuggles, finally getting soccer pictures, a church activity making pillowcases and an epic birthday party.









And with that, I think we are back on track, just in time for Thanksgiving.
