Hi! Bye!

Well all the boys got home today about 2. With this came lots of stinky laundry and boys that looked like they didn't sleep for 4 days. From what I heard they all took naps during the breaks but I think the work outs really did them in. We wash Kyle's clothes, repacked him and sent him on his way again. He went to Lake Superior camping with friends until Wed.
Clay and I went to Wausau trying to shop for several birthday presents but ended up with nothing. Ugh! It's hard to figure out what to get people who have everything and don't give you any ideas (hint, hint)
Off to change laundry. I got to get rid of the smells.

Claycation Day 3

Well let's just say being an only child suits Clay very well. Today we got a science experiment kit from Micheals. He loved it. we made thing foam, change colors, and tonight glow in the dark. We also made bouncy balls. We went to the pool swimming. He went to Fazolli's for breadsticks and DQ for dessert. He's also earning $15 for taking care of the animals at the Razcek's since they are all gone. All the boys come home tomorrow so we are enjoying the peace tonight.

Claycation

Well Claycation officially started at 4:15 PM Monday. We went out to Iverson Park for some swimming and then to noodles for supper and then to the movie store to rent movies and games. It was a good thing because the rain started and we were stuck inside. The boys are at camp and Bill said they are all doing fine. The coaches moved Kyle to tight end because of his hands. He's having a little trouble with some of the running drills. I told them both to get running before camp. Haven't heard much about Cole. I'm sure he's all puffed up with Senioritis attitude.

Tonight's agenda is movie and Chinese food. We went to the city pool this afternoon. Tomorrow it looks like geocaching at Rib and shopping at the book store.

Class of '84

Bill had his class reunion last night and as predicted we were one of the last ones to go. He had a blast seeing everyone. They didn't have a great turn out but those of us there had fun. One of his classmates lives in China and flew in just in time to make the reunion. 3 guys are currently in Iraq. Several messy divorces. Dana Frost showed up as Fiance to Brian Wills. I couldn't stop laughing when I heard this. Bill told me I had to keep quiet about everything but come on how funny is it she keeps popping up. Overall it was a great time. Now it's time to get the boys ready for camp. Bill almost forgot about the sleeping bags. Good thing he's got me. He heard that a lot last night also.

Busy Saturday

Cole's race got rained out (again). They were on the last race before his and the sky opened up on the rain came. I was a little relieved because I knew the boys were planning on racing demo style and this just didn't sit well with me. I did have to say a little thank you prayer for the timing. Today he and his buds are celebrating the end of summer with a all day swim and grill out. Kyle and Clay have a fairly quiet night. Bill and I are going to his class reunion. No we still don't have anything for him to wear. He's doing an inspection in Wausau right now. I have to work tomorrow and then pack all three boys for the week up north. I better get going to get things done.

V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N!!!

It's such a lovely little word. I have off now until August. Ok I know it's only a week but saying it this way makes it sound so much better. With the unpredictable weather we are having we have to have a plan A and B. Clay's excited that the boys will be leaving soon. I think to much togetherness lately.
Clay loved football camp and the boys said he did well. I think they are amazed by him when they see him with others. Kyle is ornery because football camp is interfering with him going to Superior with his friend. Cole and I are battling the your still to young to...(Cliff dive at Red Granite for instance) The joys of having a kid who think he's ready to be gone. I just get to do all the wash and pack the boys up.
I was reminded about dressing the husband. Bill doesn't have anything to wear to the class reunion. It's a good thing I have tomorrow off to find him something.

Are we or Aren't we?

We've been going back and forth on a couple of things this week and if one happens then the other doesn't. We were waiting to hear if Kyle had a tournament this weekend. If he did then we weren't going to Bill's 25th class reunion (yes I did say 25). If he didn't play then we were going to go. We just found out that we will be attending the class reunion. Bill's class is really nice and we always have a good time when we go.
Clay had football camp today. He also has it tomorrow and Thursday. The older boys are counselors for it. Clay kept telling us he wasn't going but he did well and had a good time. They are all starving right now and we're waiting for Bill to get home. I give him 5 more minutes then I will have to feed the beasts.
