Lots of fun

We've been having a lot of fun around here lately, at least up until yesterday (another post...or maybe not at all...it involves kids' poor choices).  Last Thursday one of my life-long friends came down to spend the day with me for his birthday.  We had lots of laughs, and there is pretty much no one in the world who knows me as well as he does.  That evening Robert had a band concert.  My mom brought my grandmothers down and everyone was very impressed with how they sounded.  Friday Catherine had ball practice and then we enjoyed a nice family dinner and evening.  Saturday was scouts and basketball, which although we all had "bleacher butt", was a great day.  Sunday we attended church (another post as well) and Thomas had a friend over early that afternoon.  We then drove to our family's favorite restaurant Montgomery Inn.  There is no question that is absolutely our favorite place to eat as a family.  The kids always enjoy it, and the fact that we can only afford to go once a year makes it a special treat!  We even got to listen to the Reds game on the radio on the drive there and back.  It was a really great family weekend!
