We met Vikki at my parents house so we could go with her to  get a used pool table. We took it apart because it had to go up steep steps and was super heavy. Vikki and I went to Joanne’s to get pool fabric. At her house we worked on taking out staples from the old fabric and putting the pool table back together. Vikki made us all peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for dinner. My mom took Jacob to his clarinet lesson.

 Adam went to school until lunchtime today.  His head was really hurting.  I threw tumblers on the wheel today.  Adam's head was feeling better after resting so he decided he wanted to try a light practice.  After picking up Jacob and Adam we headed to Midland High for Adam's practice.  The practiced had been canceled today.   We went to Tim Hortons and I got a coffee.  Got some timbits for the boys.  I made chicken noodle soup with veggies in it for dinner.  The boys didn't want soup so they had pizza rolls.  I took Eli to soccer practice.  He took his kitty's to show some friends.  Jared took Jacob to band practice which was from 6-8pm.  I trimmed tumblers this evening.

I woke Jacob this morning around 7:45 and he got ready and we headed to Delta.  Dropped him off and went to Nana's house.  Vikki and the kids met us there.  Vikki wanted a table down the road so we went to get that and loaded it in the van.  Took it to her house.  We drove to Midland to pick Adam up from school.  Then we went to Big boy for hot fudge ice cream cakes.  From there we went to Delta to pick up Jacob.  Adam had an essay to work on.  We introduced the kitty's to KitKat but she didn't like the Kittys.  We worked on cleaning and power washing the paddle boat Vikki had found on the side of the road.  We got home around 5pm.  After dinner we played some bedwars with the boys.  Then we watched Star Wars.

Vikki on her new tractor

The boys had stayed up late last night and slept in this morning.  We watched church online.  We played some bedwars with the boys.  Jacob worked on school work.  Jared dropped me off at Meijer for groceries.  He went to the auto shop for a part for our van.  The shocks in the back door needed to be replaced.  After lunch Jared and I worked outside.  We loaded up the old lawn tractor and took it to Vikki and Rody's.  We got it all fixed up and don't need two lawn mowers so we gave it to them.  We helped them move around things in their garage so they could fit it.  We gave Vikki a quick lesson on driving and mowing with it.  Then we helped them hang some hammock holders in their house.  Vikki is so happy about that.  Eli is spending the night.  We watched Indiana Jones with Jacob and Adam and had popcorn pop and ice cream.

Meridian Homecoming 2022

 I went shopping this morning to get Jacob some dress shoes.  His group he's going with said he needed to have dress shoes.  He couldn't go with me because he had too much school work.  It wasn't easy to find a place that had his size dress shoes.  I sent him some pictures and he picked out a pair.  Jared went to town to get our Sat goodies.  I had to go back into town to get the boys some dress socks.  Jared had to leave at 1:15 to take Eli to his soccer game.  His game started at 2:00.  I worked on ironing the boys clothes.  They got dressed and we took a few pictures.  We met Vikki at the rail trail and she rode with us.  We dropped Jacob off at his friends house and then headed to Dow Gardens.  Adam was there and we got some pictures. He was going with the school Spanish teacher's daughter, Hope.  He didn't know that he was going as her date!  She bought herself a wrist corsage and him a bootanear and they took lots of pictures together.  Other friends were there too.  Vikki asked the kids to go near the water for pictures.  All the parent were taking pictures without their kids even looking.  Vikki walked over to the kids and set them all up and told them to look at one camera at a time.  Haha.  Braydon's mom asked me who's mom she was and said, "She's great!" Haha, I told her she was my twin and that why I brought her.  Hope's mom also ask who she was.  We talked with Hope's parents and found out her Dad is Peyton and Isaac's art teacher!  We left there and went to the Sanford museum to get a couple pictures of Jacob and his friends.  Adam and his group went out to dinner at Mongolian barbecue.  Jacob and his friends went to the food court in the mall.  Then Vikki and I went out to eat at Big Boy and got hot fudge sundees for desert.  I hadn't had one of those in so long.  We had alot of fun.  We then went to Salvation Army but they were closing in 5 min.  We went to Goodwill and Soldans pet store.  I found a lamp for Eli and a trash can for Jacob's room.  Vikki got Eli a tripod.  We took a walk to Joann's and then to Dollar Daze.  I saw lots of deer on the drive home.  Jared picked the boys up from the dance around 10:30.  They had a great time.  Jacob was sore from dancing for 3 hrs. I asked Adam if he knew he was going to be Hope's date and he said, "Not at all!" Hope's mom had sent me a bunch of pictures and Adam didn't even want to see any of them.  He is looking forward to going to homecoming next weekend with his best friend Claire!
