Weekend Activities

So we had another good weekend. Ken and I went with one of his friends from work to a sports bar on Friday night. Ken likes the sports and the trivia, and I get to drink and sing karaoke. Fun for all. Here's a little hint regarding the use of text messaging while drinking, avoid it if at all possible. If it were against the law I would have a TWI on my record. And the bad thing, it is just sitting out there for people to show you later. Also, you should only drink with people you know well. Don't drink with people whose name you are kind of familiar with, but not really. I guess I called Ken's friend a bunch of different names, Scott, Steve, I don't even know what else. Sorry, buckaroo. Ken's thinking about putting me in a treatment program with Brittney Spears, gambling, drinking, what's next?

Saturday we had a soccer game, another loss. It is getting harder and harder to watch. Then we came home and did a little house cleaning. Always a fun experience. My friend Bekah and her family came over for dinner and games. It was fun. We played Encore with the kids and then the adults had a mean game of Spades. They got a small glimpse of our competitive sides when we started playing cards. For some reason, Ken and I are both just a little aggressive when we play cards. I can lose at other games and laugh, but make a mistake while you're my partner playing cards and I turn into my Grandpa Bates. I think it's hereditary, I can't help it. Sorry Bekah =)

Sunday was another soccer game, another loss. Then we just came home and crashed. Nothing better than a two hour nap on Sunday afternoon. Now, Ken and the kids are playing pinochle (and here's a shocker, Jake is yelling at Megan for playing her hand wrong.)

Hope you have a good week. We just make it through the week, waiting for the weekends.
