This was a pretty quiet weekend.
The kids had a 1/2 day on Friday. Dave worked from home and it’s so nice that the kids are old enough to come home and chill quietly while Dave works. On Saturday we took the kids to swim class as usual. While we were waiting for class we watched as a swimmer leaned over and threw up in the pool. Right now the flu is running rampant in the area and has taken quite a few people out. The instructors informed us that the next class (our class) would continue just as soon as they skimmed and shocked the pool. As we watched we became queasy and eventually just rescheduled the swim lesson.
The rest of our Saturday was quiet – the kids and I played outside. The snow was perfect for packing so we were able to make some awesome snowman and Ajax made a neat chair and footrest. We explored through the woods and found some neat swag for our snowmen.
At dinner we also had an exciting game of Settlers of Catan. I actually won, I never win, so that was cool. Ajax was a close second and did great, for such a complex game, and Dave rounded out third. Noomi was my helper/banker.
On Sunday, the kids had their makeup swim class. We wrapped up some homework. Ajax worked on math and Noomi worked on her biographical timeline. We then met my folks and Emily and Adrian for dinner in Lansing. Overall, a pleasant and calm weekend.
