Family Fun

It has been a while since I posted on here.  I have had a busy few weeks.  I had a number of things "go live" at work, I took a trip to North Carolina in order to take a trip back to Ohio with Tina, Thoman and Nicholas.  I got a chance to go through West Virginia for the first time and stop at Tamarack with Tina and the boys.  Mackenzie and Isaac got to spend a day with their cousins here in Perrysburg, and to take the boys to the 577 Foundation (see photo above) on a muddy January day.  Then the following weekend we drove up to Michigan to spend time with them and my parents.  We stayed in a hotel that night and the kids got to go swimming with all of their cousins at the hotel and had a blast.  I wish I had remembered to take my camera down to the pool so I could have gotten a shot of Lexie, Thomas, Nicholas, Mackenzie and Isaac at the pool together, but I did not. 

We have been trying to have a calm week this week after all of the excitement and I am hoping we can get some work done on the house this weekend after a break.  I am going to try and get the wallpaper down in the guest bathroom so that Brian can then fix the hole in the wall and the tile that got knocked down during a recent plumbing repair.  I am also hoping that Brian will patch up the damage to the wall in the living room in preparation for our next big painting job.  I am hoping that by putting this plan in writing I will stick to it.  We are also having a play date this weekend so some house cleaning is also necessary.  Perhaps I am once again over-planning our weekend . . .
