Outdoor Sports, Twins Baseball Game & Soccer Scrimmage!

Weekdays:
  • Monday - It was a nice day out!  Maci had her indoor soccer training at 5p and I grabbed her on my way home from work.  Clint grilled out and we had some yummy cheeseburgers and baked beans for dinner.  I even took a walk with Clint in the evening to get some steps in!
  • Tuesday - Rain rain go away!  Icky gloomy day.  Clint had service today out for our spring tune up - yay, almost AC season!  In the afternoon, I had a conversation with Connor's teacher since he had a rough 1st week back post spring break.  However, he was way more focused to start this week so YAY!  Connor's 1st baseball practice was cancelled due to weather.  Maci had soccer training at 5p again so I grabbed her on my way home and we enjoyed skyline chili dogs for dinner!
  • Wednesday - Maci had her first MCA state testing for reading - always long days for those kiddos!  Rosie had her annual vet apt, always a fun bill :)  We enjoyed Shrimp Scampi for dinner and Connor had his 2nd to last religion class.  I worked a bit late at the office so had to heat up my dinner after getting home but it felt good to get caught up.
  • Thursday - Maci had day 2 of the MCA reading tests, she thought she did well but did think it got hard at the end.  I left work a little early as both kids had sports at 530p.  Maci had practice at the high school which I ate dinner in my car and watched her/cleaned email on my phone.  Connor was able to have his first baseball practice which Clint is the head coach so this should be a fun season!  I took a hot shower and was ready for bed by 8p :)
Friday
  • Productive day of working from home!
  • We ordered a nasty type of pizza so everyone complained about dinner.
  • At 730p, I ran Maci to soccer practice (thankfully moved to the indoor complex b/c it was 30 something outside).  While she practiced, I slammed 2 margaritas with Kristi and Molly - 2 of the moms - at Rock Elm across the street.  On my way to the bar, I got a text from the Academy 1 coach asking Maci to play as a guest player in their scrimmage against the team a year older Sunday night.  Nice job Maci - hard work pays off!!!
  • We headed home around 9p and crashed for the night while Clint and Connor were watching the remake of Roadhouse on Tv.
Saturday :
  • I started the day with a massage at 915a - heaven!
  • Clint ran Maci to gymnastics at 10a and given it is right by the salon, I picked up some breakfast and headed to her gym to wait in the car then come in for a bit to watch.
  • Maci and I headed home to get some things done and then get ready for Matilda Jr the musical at the Stages children's theatre.  They do such a good job - Connor and Maci loved it!  Lots of fun music and it only runs 75 mins with no intermissions!
  • We dropped Maci and Connor at their neighborhood friends house - Harper and Colton - on the way home. 
  • I laid down for a nap and Clint picked up Connor around 415p for a birthday party at the Plymouth Community center - Suraj from his class.
  • I woke up when they got back from the party.  Clint and I had some Greek food - gyro for him and Greek salad for me and the kids ate around the house.
  • We got to cheer on the Timberwolves to their first NBA playoff win in FOREVER! HA
  • Clint went to meet up with Brad (Soccer dad) for a few drinks while I enjoyed some random Law & Orders in bed.
Sunday :
  • Nice slow morning of music and to dos around the house.
  • At 12p we were off to downtown for the Greenwood Elementary day at Twins Stadium.
  • The food was tasty but the play was sad - they were losing 6-0 heading into the bottom of the 9th.  Thankfully it was a sunny 60 degree day which made for a nice experience!  Also, a home run was hit in the 9th which was too little too late but at least fun for the kids to see a score in the game!
  • We headed home and got here a little before 4p.  Now we are cleaning up the last minute weekend to dos, waiting on groceries to deliver, preparing for the week ahead and getting ready to head to Maci's scrimmage at 7p.
  • Here is hoping they have a great game tonight and we stay warm!  60 degrees for a high gets real cold when that sun goes down!


Maci and I are getting super excited to head to St Louis next weekend with her team for their out of state tournament of the season!  My mom and dad are going to drive and meet us down there too!  First time for them to see her in action in quite some time for my mom and ever for my dad!  Let's go!

Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
