Weekends are relaxing

Who ever said weekends are relaxing obviously doesn't have kids. There is nothing relaxing about most weekends around here. This weekend is no exception.



It started at 5:30am on Friday morning and hasn't let up yet. The dual surprise for Dave and Sara of going to get Ian to come home was only 4 hours of my day yesterday. That worked out really well though I think my husband thought his surprise included him getting lucky. Silly man. I also think I had him going thinking the surprise was me getting a tattoo.
Sara's reaction to Ian being home was loud and excited and so worth the 4 hours of driving.
Dave and Ian headed out for a relaxing night of dinner and a movie and I was off to drive everybody else downtown to trick or treat. It actually was the first year I didn't follow Meg and the gang around. Because of my ankle Sara took meg and her friends and I sat and had some coffee with a friend till they were done. Swim meet today that didn't go very well for the team but hopefully they can make up for it at sectional and got rid of 3 kids and gained 4. Megan is having a Halloween sleep over with some of her friends tonight so forget about any sleep tonight.
And my weekend will end getting Ian back to school tomorrow afternoon. I will need a long nap on Monday and so much for resting my ankle either.

Well I am off to pick up yet another child from somewhere else then hopefully I will be able to sit and elevate.
