2013.08.26-2013.08.30

Oh man, another week is done, crazy!
We did lots of fun things last week. Ruby came over Monday and Thursday and was learning to walk so we had lots of fun. 
Tuesday we went to Kuyper to visit Eric and work and for me to meet with Andrew Zwart to talk through work details for next week! John loves all of the big rooms and open spaces at Kuyper and had fun running around while we talked. We also got free lunch at Kuyper and went grocery shopping on our way home. 
Wednesday morning we went over to Kelly's and took Brendan to the park for a while so that Kelly could take a nap for a while. The boys had a blast running around, climbing, going down slides, and eating watermelon. I got a few chapters of a book read while they played. 
Thursday was Ruby's last day here. They took naps on completely opposite schedules, so I was busy playing with one of them most of the day. I also painted some jar lids for a little project and cleaned most of the house, including vacuuming. 
Friday John went to Kelly's while I went to Kuyper for my first day of work (sort of). I just presented "How to Survive a Kroeze Course" to a bunch of freshman. Then I went grocery shopping, visited with Kelly and Brendan for a while, and came home to hang out with Eric. Mom and Dad came up from DeMotte so we ate some dinner, put John to bed, and made 8 gallons of applesauce. What? That's not a normal thing to do on a Friday night? Hmmm...
Saturday we slept in while Dad took John to Lowe's. After that we went to Lubie's house to visit Sylvan and eat lunch. Mom and Dad left from there and the Roosma family went to AJ's Family Fun Center to celebrate Kelly's Golden Birthday. 

Meals this week included: Tuna noodle casserole, Sauerkraut with Sausage and mashed potatoes, a free pizza from Papa Johns, Chicken Rice casserole, Chinese, a Mediterranean style pasta (with feta, olives, and pesto), eggs and toast, cereal, lots of watermelon, and a few other things that I'm probably forgetting about.
