Another warm day....

....another day for play!

After a few days of rain, it finally warmed up today, which meant it was nearly impossible to get the kids to come in for bathtime! I'm going to be in so much trouble when summer really hits, lol!

We also got notice that the neighborhood BBQ/Pool Opening has been moved to next Saturday instead of this weekend, due to the fact that it'll be a really bad weather day. The kids were disappointed when we told them, but I distracted them with popsicles, ha.

Haven't been feeling well lately, so I'm kind of behind on the plans for summer. I'm determined to have a game plan in place so I won't have a repeat of last summer, where there were four monkeys on crack screeching, "I'M BORED!" every five minutes.

Boredom is not an option this summer. If it does manage to creep in, I have an SUV that needs washing and a house that needs cleaning.

I'm such a mean mom, lol.

Warm weather fun!

Let it begin! The weather was so nice today, that we couldn't help but be outside for most of it! We're thinking today's fun was just a prelude to what the summer has in store for us!

I blame the refs, lol!

Flag football season started for Ryan a few weeks ago, so our Saturdays have been a bit busy. The games so far have been fun and a learning experience for me (I have no clue what's going on!), but today's game was....interesting. As in, frustrating!

I'm sure the referees that were assigned to our game were trying their best, but they made a lot of goofs and inconsistent calls! It really was frustrating for Ryan and his teammates who were trying their hardest to play fair, but their effort was dwarfed by some of the calls against them.

And, don't even get me started on the behavior of the parents from the opposing team! Ugh! Sometimes I think the parents get more competitive than the kids! I wish some parents would just be content with cheering on their team instead of feeling the need to throw out some snarky, snide comments!

Ryan and his teammates played an excellent game and did an awesome job! It was just a bit disheartening to see their disappointed faces at the end of the game.
