Action packed Weekend

Steven and I actually road together Friday. It was a treat. So, coming home we picked Aubrey up first from after school care. On the way to pick Jamie up we looked at the geese that are near a Kidde plant near the house. We asked Aubrey if we pulled over would she hop out and catch us one for dinner. She agreed. So we pulled over and she quickly changed her mind. She decided the geese might bite. She decided to make one for us instead.


After dinner she decided that she wanted to make a tent in her room.

Saturday we had a busy day. It started with a 5K for me and the girls down in Chapel Hill. Whoa! I was getting over a cold but it still felt really good to get out and run.
Aubrey had to help her Daisy Scout troupe sell the last of their girl scout cookies. Since I was running my race, Steve went out to help out Aubrey. It wasn't too bad for him, since they set up their table outside Lowes Hardware. I think he managed to sneak in and look around. Still he came home saying something about needing to watch some sports or a good action flick... anything not girlie.



They had a working lunch, catered by McDonalds!
Saturday ended with Steve and I actually getting a date! Some of the GYN surgeons and oncologists had a band called N.E.D. (No Evidence of Disease), and they were putting on a charity concert at the Cat's Cradle in Carrboro. We got a babysitter and went with some friends. We weren't sure what to expect, but they were really good! We all had a great time!

Steven's cousin Jason just moved here to take a job at UNC. We've been talking about getting together, and this gave us a good opportunity. We can't wait for his family to move out and get the kids together.

Sunday was church and girlscouts. We had a mostly relaxing day. It has been windy here, and Aubrey was begging to fly a kite. We found one at the store and this kept her pretty busy this afternoon. It was cold, but she and Jamie were loving being outside. I think it was good for all of us. Can't wait for Spring!

Even though it is still cold and we have a chance of snow this week, soccer is starting up. Hopefully we'll have a post coming soon with some soccer pictures. Come on Spring, we're ready!
