411 The Walters Bunch

  I had to get A a wig since I got T a wig.....she looks good! We have been just enjoying life the past couple of weeks. I honestly just forgot about updating the blog last week. We made it to our weekly pickleball game after missing the past two weeks. This time according to the kids " the world is as it should be". Yep, they won this time. They can't go next week though because T got them tickets to a show so D and I will get our practice time in. We'll see how the match the following week goes!  Sam's club has a year membership for $15 right now so we bought a membership to check it out. I haven't been to a Sam's since I had to buy diapers for the kids. The kids went with me to check it out and while we loved it, it was a bit overwhelming. I have been told the one by us is one of the biggest/busiest. I believe it! We went at 10:30am on a Thursday and it was crazy! The checkout was 30 people deep! There was so much to see. We just stuck to food and groce...

A found lots of glass soda bottles at World Market. T has created a glass bottle soda monster! We had both a busy and fun week! The kids and I went to visit with my parents one afternoon. Truth be told, A, my mom, and I went to do some snooping at World Market. World Market is kind of like a rich man's Trader Joe's, but with less frozen food and more furniture. We hadn't been snooping around there in quite awhile. They have so many different things from other countries to try that the hard part is NOT getting too much in one trip. We got a couple of things we really liked, several that were ok, and a couple we spat out and threw the rest away. They had their advent calendars out already so now we're set for the holiday season, which is rapidly approaching. T stayed back at the house to play checkers with Grandpa. He is getting closer to winning! He said Grandpa's strategy is to take so long on his turn that you forget what you were doing.😂 He's not wrong. I alw...

  He is ready for the weekend! This past weekend was T's first camping trip of many this season with his scout group. He left on Friday afternoon and came back Sunday afternoon. They actually only went about 20 minutes away, but he had a great time. They are working on an aquatic badge so not only did they swim and learn life saving water techniques, but they also rented a boat and worked on boat safety while having a healthy dose of fun being pulled behind it! He was super tired when he came home and had a few blisters from holding on to the rope while being pulled by the boat, but he still summoned up the energy to go play at the local bar for his music recital. He is so incredibly busy that we are taking a hiatus from his guitar lessons to create more down time. We kept scheduling things and forgetting he had a class so instead of paying for each session we missed we decided to take a break for the rest of the semester until things calm down a little. He has been complaining abo...
