Avoiding Jury Duty, fun with friends & prepping for LA!

Weekdays:

The Sun is shining so much lately and the temps are mild - Dang we are loving this weather!!!

• Monday - Clint was due up for jury duty.  He did have to go in but was sent home midday to await more info if his number was called.  Maci had training from 5-6p.  I ran her home and then Clint and I tuned into the annual Foxberry Farms HOA meeting.  We always have some good laughs with the concerns of certain neighbors.  This year was all about converting a tennis court into a pickle ball court HA

Every day sight when they leave to school on the bus

• Tuesday - Clint had to go down to the court house again but again didn't have to stay long so our fingers were crossed b/c it was going to be a murder trial.  Maci had her training and game face conditioning at night so I hung there to pick her up.

• Wednesday - Clint did not have to head down today, we keep crossing our fingers.  Connor had his religion class at night and Clint had to drive the kids both ways.
• Thursday - Clint got great news, found out he was not selected to be on this jury!!!  Wahoo!  I took a call with our financial advisor to exercise some restricted stock.  I was supposed to have a happy hour but the colleague ended up not being able to make it.  That was fine b/c my neck and head were hurting.  It has been fairly stressful at work as of late so I was ready to chill.  Clint ran Maci to and from soccer practice at 530p

Clint sent me this pic at work

She is watching squirrels but dang isnt she pretty?!

Friday:

• This was an at home learning day for the kids, AKA a free day off from school.
• I got a lot of good work accomplished with a few meetings smattered in.
• Maci hung out with her friends most of the afternoon and Connor jumped on the trampoline with his pal Grady.
• We ordered in Pizza for dinner and I was climbing in to bed to watch some junk TV while Clint watched basketball in the evening.

Saturday:

• Started the day with a 1st communion retreat with Connor, my turn since Clint did reconciliation.  We practiced receiving non blessed bread and wine, learned about how the process will go and then made our communion pew banner for Connor and made a rosary too.  We were out of there in about 1 hour 30 mins and then were off to the bagel shop.  Nice to have some time on a sunny morning with my buddy and me.
• While we were there, Clint ran Maci to and from gymnastics lessons.
• Maci then had soccer practice at 1p which Clint also did the running for.
• I was really tired from the week and took a nice long nap that afternoon!
• I got up around 4p and Clint was talking to his buddy Billy.  I got to catch up too before getting ready for our night out.
• The sitter arrived at 6p and we were off to Puttery with our pals Jacey/Ryan & Gena/Vinny.  
• The food was great and the putt putt was fun until the drinks started hitting and we all sucked HA!
• We headed home and relieved the sitter by about 11p and then crashed thanks to Spring Forward time!

I believe I won, not sure how, likely lots of cheating HA

Sunday:

• We all slept until about 9a
• Connor got up and started playing with Grady right away
• Maci got ready for her 10a practice
• I ran to pick her up from practice and participate in a parent meeting preparing for the spring season - so close to being outside!
• Once home, we did all the typical weekend things - order groceries, run laundry, Clint touched up some paint and is taking down Christmas lights while I get ready to clean my shoe area of the closet.  Maci is baking cookies, surprise and Connor is still hanging with his buddy Grady.
• We are all moving a little slow today and I love a weekend like that!  Getting a few things done but also letting it come as it may :)

I head to LA for a chunk of this week (Tues-Thurs) and Clint + kids are lucky enough to head to the Wayzata semi final basketball game Tuesday night at the high school - I really will miss not being there!  I hope to hear all about a W so we can head downtown for the state tourney shortly!

Lots of Love,
