Here's all the news you can use...
This past week we were very busy! I feel like I have complained a lot the past few days, so even though this post will probably only be interesting to a grandparent, I will now tell all of the good things that happened to me this week.
Monday, I had my final leg treatment, which was the most painful yet because spider veins were treated near the surface. Anyhow, it's over now except for the bruising, so I'm so excited.
Tuesday, we went to Chuckie Cheese's and the boys had a lot of fun. We even came across a game which had 8 unused credits, so they played it on one token for about 20 minutes!
On Wednesday, the boys had dentist apppointments, which went ok. Reese has a couple of cavities to take care of, and was told he has soft teeth. Mom and I have soft teeth, and I hate hearing that he does, as well, because more cavities are probably in his future. Either way, he must get these filled in October. Cole has no cavities, but needs to have a baby tooth pulled which will not get out of the way for a permanent canine that is trying to come in! True had no cavities, no problems. Oh, to be 5!!!
On Thursday, we got together with my good friend, Carla, and her two children to see Charlotte's Web, the free summer movie. Of course I cried when Charlotte died, and when the babies were born and left Wilbur, and I tried to hide it but I was scared I might start snubbing from holding it in. I didn't want Carla to think I was a total nutcase crying at a kid's movie!! Besides that, it was a great day! They came over for lunch afterward and the kids played while we talked.
On Friday, Reese went to his friend's pool with their family and we took Cole and True to our favorite restaurant right now, Thai Bangkok. I tried a new dish, Massaman Curry, made with chicken, curry, coconut milk, peanuts, vegetables, YUMMY!!!!! Barry had a dish called Emperor in a Pot, which he liked but had too much going on for me! There were mussels (I hate just the name of that shellfish-yuck) shrimp, noodles, onion, squid...no, thanks.
Yesterday, we had a dance lesson which was fantastic and we finally finished our routines. Now we just have to polish them up! By the way, anyone who is interested in coming to see us at the competition, let me know- I can get tickets for either the Friday or Saturday night at around $30 a pop.
After the lesson, I went to lunch with my good friend, Elaine, at the Farmer's Market. The Moose Cafe is to be recommended! However, I question why the Moose is a mascot and motif at this restaurant where the emphasis is on everything NC!?!? I bought blackberries and a "juan canary" melon! It was so nice to have "girl time"! When I got home, it was back to "boy time", in full force!!! The boys put on a scooter, skateboard, and bike show for us in the driveway as we sat in our stadium chairs in the yard. They were very entertaining!! I made blackberry cobbler and we watched "Escape From Alcatraz" which Clint Eastwood. I love my "boy time", too!
Today, we will go to church and then to a Vietnamese restaurant with our friends, Nam and Jen from across the street. I have never had Vietnamese food, so I'm excited about something new!
In our poll report, you guys are definitely not cool with getting total honesty about your personalities!! Wonder what we're afraid of? Only one voter said yes! WHO ARE YOU?? Having a college named after you won the second poll, which was my vote, as well.
Have a wonderful day and come see us!
