10 on Monday!

• This Saturday was massively busy but so good!  We dropped Jerry of for his MBA orientation and then headed to Memory Lane Comics.   The kids really enjoyed it and racked up on the stuff. They each got 4 comic books, a Star Wars action figure with commemorative glass, a Star Wars plane, and a fishing pole. They each purchased some action figures and overall had a great time.  There were no action heroes there while we were there, and in retrospect that was good.  Elijah isn't the most thrilled with larger than life things in costume.  So we went to Dunkin Donuts and had bagels and then went to the park.

• Saturday evening we went to the beach to celebrate a friend's birthday.  It was really fun and we all had a great time!  All the kids have no sense of how freezing the water feels, and played until their teeth were chattering and their lips were blue.  So fun!!

• Mother's Day was really nice.  Jerry helped the kids make me some gifts and he got me a watch and new headphones for my MP3 player. 
• We went to Chris's Cosmic Kitchen for breakfast and since I'm a mom, I got a free slice of cheese cake...mmmmmm.....
• We went to Dick's and got a sunshade for the beach.  We came home and set it up in the yard...it was awesome!  We went to the beach and tried it in pretty bad evening wind... and not so much. We will try it again on a not so windy day and hopefully it will be better.  
• Today was my first day doing the Couch to 5K.  I have started a website to track my progress.  This is a link to the website.
• Today was also Elijah's first day at tennis lessons.  And though I am completely biased, he rocked!  He is so athletic!  

• Tomorrow is beach day for Elijah's class. I am going to take Grace to yoga at the library... I feel like I am driving all the time these days, but soon school will be over and I will feel very stuck at home.  But that will only last for a couple weeks because...
• We go on vacation the fifth of June. We will be in Edisto Island for the week and then the kids and I will go home with my folks to stay for quite a few weeks.  YAY for summer!!!
• Finally, my parents rock for many reasons, but recently they have offered us their car.  We are thrilled with this as being a one car family while Jerry will be in school AND Elijah will be in Kindergarten AND Grace will be in Pre-K.  Phew!  I will still be driving very much, but it's nice to have the option of the second car.  So thanks mom and dad!!!
