T.G.I.F.

Even though it was a short work week for me it has been a long week. Our weekend will be a bit on the busy side. We are taking the boys to their first Nationals game tonight. I didn't tell the four-year-old yet, he'll be too excited to get through the day. Since we got the team, he has been SO excited about baseball. I'm really looking forward to taking him to the game. Go Nats!

Tomorrow we will motor up to Philly for our niece's 3rd birthday. She is just the cutest little thing and she LOVES Dora the Explorer. My four-year-old helped me birthday shop for her last night. It is always important to get input from another Dora expert. My sister-in-law has a pool party scheduled for Sunday.

This weekend pretty much kicks off our fall schedule of trips to various parts of PA. The hubby's class reunion is next weekend also in PA. Then we have Penn State season tickets with my brother, so that adds three more trips to PA. There will be a canoe race for the hubby in October, as well as another trip to Philly to attend a huge bead show. Things should settle down the end of November after my reunion, which is over the Thanksgiving weekend and again PA. Good thing my new car should be in the week of Labor Day. It will have a flip-down DVD to keep the boys occupied while we are on the road. Looks like we'll be keeping Exxon in business.
