Playing Catch-up

So much has happened that I don't know where to start! Swimming has come and gone, and Mason 'graduated' to level three. Ashton spent most of his swim time squirting his coach in the face and wrapping her around his finger (he is good at that). We opted out of another session because it is just too much activity with school and soccer, but we will pick it up again in June. Soccer is in full swing, Tuesdays being our hurry-scurry day when both kids play and Blake and I are, as ever, simply along for the ride.
We had a great time with Blake on our weekend getaway, our friend's little girls just doted on him the entire visit. He seems to enjoy being the center of attention. Meanwhile, the boys enjoyed a weekend with Mimi that was chock-full of activity. They saw a Mud-Hens game, did Raiku at the 577 foundation (you can view their masterpieces on my mantle) and were spoiled completely. The most wonderful part was that the boys were really good when we got home, they forgot all about the post-Mimi visit crankies.
The garage sale was a success, and I am so glad it's over! I still have to clean up the leftover crap that didn't sell, but it feels good to have gotten rid of so much and made some cash to boot.

They are all out of order, but I did manage to take some pictures over the last week:

That's all folks!
