Week in Review

We survived the week!  Monday was a normal day. Tuesday afternoon Nate left for Boston so it was just us girls at home.  Evelyn and I went for a run and in general had a good day.


Wednesday it snowed.  Not a whole lot but enough that some roads were icy and schools were cancelled.  I had signed up to help out in rehab in Roanoke which worked well since I also had to drop off and pick up Evelyn from daycare.  This being my first time dropping her off, I was a little worried but there were no tears.


Thursday night I had a surprise baby shower at Olive Garden for a friend from church.  Nate wasn't supposed to get home till late so Meredith had agreed to babysit.  Unfortunately, she got sick Wednesday night.  My mom convinced me that it would be okay to be bring Evelyn along and she did awesome.  I couldn't have asked her to be better behaved.  The daddy-to-be is the band director at one of the local high schools so I couldn't resist buying this onesie.



As it turned out, Nate had lots of trouble getting home on Thursday and finally ended up just renting a car and drove home from Charlotte, NC this morning.  So I got to bring Evelyn to daycare again and come into work an hour late.  But Nate was home when we got home and Meredith was making dinner.  Hooray - we made it to the weekend!

XC and soccer

 Last weekend we took a little tour of the state to attend a cross country meet and two soccer games. We woke up early on Saturday to head to Terre Haute for the middle school cross country state meet. Evelyn’s coach could enter up to 10 girls, so he invited the top 10 runners. Evelyn certainly isn’t one of the fastest runners in the state but she held her own and ran her fastest time of the season, 14:05. Team photo! All the boys and girls who came down to run.  The girls lined up in their block before the start.  We left Terre Haute and headed to South Bend where Jameson had two soccer games on Sunday. We original thought we’d split up; Nate and Evelyn would drive to Terre Haute and back on Saturday and Jameson and I would go to South Bend on Sunday. But the more we thought about it, we realized we could get a hotel, save us a little driving and avoid another super early morning.   Jameson was asked to play goalie for the other under 11 team since their goalie was ...

Camping day four

 Tuesday morning it was raining. We made instant oatmeal for breakfast under the screen tent and then left to go hiking because we couldn’t hide in the tent all morning. We decided we wanted to see Gray’s Arch, the arch we missed the day before. The trailhead starts after the climb so we hoped it wouldn’t be the hardest hike in the rain. The rain did lessen up as we walked but it felt like we were the only people on the trail.  Gray’s Arch was very pretty.  Pretty sure people do climb to get on top but we didn’t see a clear path so we admired it from below.  On the walk back to the car the rain had stopped and we saw a few people. Unfortunately as we drove back to the campground, it started raining again. We decided to stop at a few of the gift shops and look for souvenirs. The sky lift gift shop wasn’t open because the lift wasn’t operating, but there was a nice covered pavilion where we were protected from the rain and could eat lunch. Back at camp we hunkered down...
