We went on a cruise last weekend around Lake Coeur d'Alene. It was fun and a much needed break from the frenzy of studying. I have an exam this coming Monday so I have another weekend of studying ahead of me. We have been playing games all morning. Mason has not asked for TV once in the past 4 days. A miracle and a total change in our way of living. I bought 4 different board games from the thrift store yesterday (Battleship, Zoocomafoo, Dandy Candy and something else) so we have been engrossed in learning how to play them. Considering it has started to rain and turned much colder here in Idaho, it is time for a lot more indoor playing. Of course, there are lots of battles over which game to play first etc. Mason isn't much of a good sport either which is Karma as I was a horrible sport as a kid too! Anyway, we did family fun night at the Kroc center last night. We brought Terran, our neighbor, with us. The boys paid his entrance fee from their piggy banks. It is a good lesson for them to learn how to be generous and pay for something meaningful vs. buying toys with their "own" money. Terran wants to come again this morning as we are just about to leave for yoga. I am very consistent about 10am yoga on Saturdays. I will let the boys figure out if they want to pay Terran's way again.
I will have the babysitter Danielle here most of the weekend so that I can study. I am trying hard to keep some balance in my life!
