Breakfast for Dinner

Day two of school went off without a hitch. Today I stayed home and Mase rode with Matt. Yesterday we both went in the morning, then I came home and then went back at noon to get him and then back home. This year is going to be a bit difficult to manage in terms of gas and driving. Abbott (where Mason goes to school and Matt works) is about 30 miles from here. This year we are both driving it. Matt goes of course in the morning, and I go to pick up Mason at noon. So this is 1 hour round trip for each of us, each day. God will provide, it is just going to be a matter of adjusting a few things to get it all worked out.

Well tonight for dinner, I decided to mix it up a bit. I told Mason we were going to have Breakfast for dinner and he told me that Breakfast wasn't dinner. :) I told him we would have turkey bacon, eggs, biscuits and fruit. I told him he and Micah could help.

So we made our dinner, Breakfast. :) Micah mixed up the eggs for me, Mason layed out the biscuits, and I cooked the bacon in the microwave. We got it all made and enjoyed our dinner. It was great, but would have been even greater had Matt been here to join us. - Game tonight in Frost.

After, dinner... Breakfast :) the boys headed out to play in the sand box. Like I said last night, had this been a few weeks ago I would have stayed in and let them play on their own. This week, and life is different now. I put on my flops and headed out the door. When I went out Mason said we would play "Pirate Football" he had one of those squishy water football things you use in the pool, (I'm lost for the word that they call them). So we tossed it around amongst each other, "tackled" a little bit, ran around, hid from and scared each other, and laughed alot. It was awesome! The boys got VERY dirty, but had a fun time doing so. :)

Baths were a must have, we even had a pre rinse of phase before the actual bath tonight. :)

Pj's on, teeth brushed and off to bed. - I love my boys but I sure do love this school routine. I love routine, and organization but with a Coach for a husband things seem to get off schedule. It is hard for us to attend any of the events because of their schedule. I hate to miss the games that Matt is a part of, or any of the school functions, but I have to do my best to keep the boys on this schedule. Mason is a grumpy gus in the mornings if he does not have enough sleep, so I ahve to make sure he is well rested. Bed time is 7:30-7:45 with a movie of choice until 8pm (if they have been successful in their nighttime routine). In most cases they are asleep when I go to turn the movie off.

I am blessed by this week, and it has gone smoothly thus far!

Have a great night!
