Picture of the Week - 1/18/2018

You guys know I love my boys.  Right!  I love them a LOT.

But y'all, this week has been SO challenging!  

Bob and I are both up to our eyeballs in work for our actual paying jobs right now.  It's a busy time as our companies are coming out of the holiday slow periods.  Stress and work and phone calls and blah!

And then there's prep for lacrosse.  Not complaining about this one because I actually (mostly) really enjoy this stuff, but there's a LOT of work that goes into kicking off a spring lacrosse season for 220 boys.  Logistics are NO JOKE.  I have easily spent a couple of hours every day this week on this "hobby" of mine...  not complaining, but it's work that needs to be done and I'm the one who needs to get it done.  

And then it went and snowed.  And got freezing.  And school was cancelled for 2 days.  This has changed ALL our plans this week.  It has changed wrestling tournaments and practice schedules and of course the boys have been stuck at home all week.  

Perfect storm.

The result is a SERIOUSLY depleted "snackin' closet" and 4 boys who have essentially run a muck most of the week.  This picture is from dinner last night.  Your eyes are not deceiving you, they are all in pajamas.  We did get them to get dressed today and at least the big ones bathed.  

Tomorrow they go to school!  (Thank goodness!)

Tomorrow is also the Mother/Son Laser Tag extravaganza at the elementary school and Spencer is participating in a JV tournament as the varsity tournament is cancelled for the weekend.  Also Quinn starts lacrosse practice this weekend.  Hang on - Spring season craziness starts in 3.... 2.... 1.... GO!
