The last week has been one of those crazy weeks full of non-stop activities. It started with a full weekend: Katy Prairie Ranch Roundup, three birthday parties, two soccer games, friends visiting from Germany and major school projects for both boys! We barely had time to breathe. This week has been equally busy with soccer practice, continuing ed classes at Rice (drawing for Gene, photography for me, and a Magritte class for my mom and me!), piano, projects, field trips for both boys, and Cub Scouts. Needless to say, we are all looking forward to a bit of downtime this weekend.
Much of Henry's soccer season has been rained out, but I was finally able to snap some pictures at his Sunday afternoon game.
This boy loves soccer.
Getting goofy.
Gene was out of town for a couple of days this week. Normally, he takes Will to Cub Scouts and I stay home with Henry, but instead I got to take both boys. Fortunately, we are nearing the end of the year and our den leader had a fun evening planned.
We visited the Bellaire trolley to complete our "visit a historic site" requirement. We also learned all about trolleys in Houston!
Henry mostly loved running around and playing with a friend. After the den meeting, we had a pizza party at Fuzzy's because our den was the top-popcorn-selling den in the pack.
And here are a few more pictures I found on various cameras:
Henry loves his new Maps book from Aunt Amber.
Henry is such a reader -- Captain Underpants is a current favorite. I caught him up well before dawn one morning reading!
Henry had his six-year-old check-up this week. The doctor said he's perfect! Henry was mostly just excited to miss some school and have special lunch with Mommy.
And finally, just for fun, we were driving right behind the Wienermobile last Sunday in our neighborhood.
So fun!
Despite our busy-ness, we've really enjoyed all our activities, with the exception perhaps of those school projects. Here's hoping this weekend is just as fun, if perhaps a touch less frantic!
