Last night Nathan had a winter camp that he had to go to for Young Men's. So he and Josh left the house around 5:30p.m. He also took Merynn to the farm cause she was having a sleepover with grandma Barb. That left me with only two kids. TWO KIDS!! So weird. And awesome. So I took the younger two swimming. I hadn't been able to watch Alysha at her last round of swimming lessons because I was teaching piano, so I was really impressed with how well of a swimmer she has become. We brought along the snorkeling gear they got for Christmas so we could try it out before we leave on our trip to Hawaii. They just looked so dang adorable. Alysha caught on quickly..........Trentan did not. No surprise there. But we sure had fun. After swimming we went and got a bite to eat, went and got some treats from the Winks store, watched a movie all snuggled up on the couch and then had a sleepover in my bed. Day's like that need to happen WAY more often.
This morning Nathan and Josh arrived home frozen from sleeping outside but they had smiles on. Nathan took Josh and Merynn to basketball (Josh scored his first basket!) while I taught some piano. After that, Merynn and I made some blueberry muffins and the rest of the day was spend goofing off. We just sorta lazed around playing games and snacking. We even set up an "army" obstacle course and tried to get through it without getting hit by the Nerf gun darts being shot by Nate. I learned today that spending quality time with my kids soothes my soul and I need to make a habit of doing it.
