Crazy Weekends
It's been another of those crazy weekends, filled with sports and parties. This weekend was the Hot Dog Cup, the soccer tournament for the boy's summer league. Grasshopper participated with his team and they had some wild games. The first game the were down 4-0 early, but battled back and tied it up. It went back and forth until his team finally won 9-8. Talk about a nail biter! They finished the tournament 2-1-1. There was no championship game at their level so he got a participation trophy.
Maverick missed the tournament because he's at wrestling camp from Saturdy to Wednesday. The Wife got taxi duty on that one. Sessions go all the way to 9 pm. Luckily, my sister's boys are at the same camp so we're splitting carpooling duties to a certain extent. She's going to take the boys but her kids are staying all day while Maverick is missing the evening session on Monday due to a soccer game.
The Wife and I also attended a surprise 60th birthday party for her cousin last night. It was an impressive feat keeping it from him but he was completely surprised! We had a good time mingling with family. The home we were in was very nice and cozy, but a bit small for the approximately 30 people we had there. Still, there was plenty of snacks and refreshments so it went well.
The Wife is really looking forward to next weekend. We're going to her niece's place for the 4th and we haven't been to thier place since she moved back from South Carolina last year. As a matter of fact, the laptop I'm typing this on is being prepared to "donate" to her niece as we speak. I'm getting a newer model so I'm passing this down.
While it's been a busy weekend, there's been lots of fun as well, just no all together family kind of fun. Hopefully we'll get some of that next weekend. Hope everyone has a good week!
