Week Rundown (07/24/2011-07/30/2011)



Sunday

Today was hot. I ran the vans for church, and we kept the air conditioning on.

For the afternoon, we ate a good lunch and then took naps. Lydia worked on homework. I didn't mean to, but since there was no choir practice, I had a long nap!

Evening services was put on by our teens who had attended Senior Camp this last week. They demonstrated their talents with songs, preaching, dramatic readings, and awesome testimonies. Services were longer than normal, but worth it. I'm happy to report that Mysia did very well sitting through it all. Malachi had a fun time in his class and didn't mind the longer service.

We stopped by McDonalds on the way home and got some caramel sundays. The kids ate them in car, and once we got home, we got ready for bed.


Monday

Well, a new schedule was put into act today. Since summer daycamp had ended, Mysia got to go to Granny's house. However, my mom started a new job at the library on the BBC campus, o Mysia spent most of the day with her Aunt Abigail. Malachi was a bit disappointed that he can't spend the days with her.

I had quartet practice this evening. We worked on several songs. Looking forward to singing at a few outside events next month.


Tuesday

A busy day, but we got a lot accomplished. The evening was nice. Besides Lydia studying for her finals, we enjoyed time as a family.


Wednesday

This evening was spent at church. Lydia stayed home to study for her last final.


Thursday

Lydia's big event for today was her last final for her summer semester in college. She was very glad she is now finished for a few weeks. (so am I)


Friday

A nice half day for me at work. Lydia worked until 5, so the kids got to spend the afternoon with me at home. We had a late lunch, so after naps we headed to the park to let them release some energy. Lydia met us there, and then we headed home. We watched some tv in the air-conditioning before getting the kids ready for bed.

I spent several hours at church trying to prepare my room for Vacation Bible School.


Saturday


The main activity planned for today was swimming. Lydia got up and went to her appointment at BioLife. The kids played instead of watching cartoons. I joined in, and we wrestled for a good hour. The play ended after I somehow 'poked' Mysia in the eye and gave Malachi a rugburn! They wanted to continue after that, but I figured that once they got 'hurt'.. the time of wrestling was over.

We ate muffins and we watched some tv shows on Netflix when Lydia came back home. We drove over to to the pool to find out they didn't open for another hour. We headed back home, watched more tv shows, ate lunch, and took a nap.

We finally made it to the pool. It had rained and the weather cooled the air down. The pool was cold, but it sure felt good! We ended up swimming for several hours.

The rest of the evening was nice... showers and then bed!
