What a weekend

Itinerary 5/2/09 & 5/3/09

Saturday

10:30 am - Soccer

Fields muddy, Mommy cold, girls scored lots of goals

1:30 pm - Icers

Worked on shooting from outside the circles. Both girls working on a harder wrist shot. Accuracy GREATLY improving.

4:30 - Dinner

The girls went out for dinner with Nanny and Pap Pap while Mommy went to Symphony rehearsal

8:00 pm - Symphony Concert

We performed "Won't You Be My Neighbor" from Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, and Mr. McFeely sang. The girls were SO excited. He brought along Daniel Striped Tiger and King Friday. Too cool. We got to meet him afterwards. Another favorite was "Kennywood's Open". We've been listening to that one a lot in the truck these past few weeks, so the girls knew it as well as I did. They can name the rides that each section of the piece is about.

Favorite quote: Bethany: This part is the Tilt-a-Whirl

Julianna: Which ride is the Tilt-a-Whirl again?

Bethany: It's the one that goes around and around and then you throw up. (Because doesn't everyone throw up when they're on the Tilt-a-Whirl?)

10:30 pm - After Party

Nanny prepared some wonderful snacks for us to enjoy. The girls may have enjoyed them more than the actual concert.

Sunday

9:43 - Church and Children in Worship

My girls and Lisa's kids were the only ones at Children in Worship. Amy was the leader, so it may have been a "Church Playdate". That's okay.

11:30 - Lunch

We went out for brunch with the Ellises (minus the adult males). It was all good until the food came. Then the meltdowns began. I think Lisa had a loooonnnnnggggg afternoon.

1:30 - Movie

We watched "Cinderella". Always a favorite.

6:00 - Trinity Skate

Trinity Hockey sponsored a free skate for all residents of the district. The girls were so excited that they made personalized invitations for all the kids in their class. Two of them showed up! Thanks, Evan and Skyler. You made my girls' day!

7:00 - Supper

We went up to Jay's with the Romaneks to watch Dave's draft league game. I couldn't tell you the final score, but the kids have formed the Dave Fan Club.

8:30 - Hockey & Bed

We watched Boston and Carolina battle. When we finally got Julianna to stay in bed, she wanted us to turn up the tv so she could listen to the game while she laid there. No dice, Sweetheart.

I'm so glad it's Monday and the girls are at school. Life is controllable again, at least for a few hours. :)
