Insanity

You think I'd be used to it by now. But the craziness of summer has wiped me out. We spent our weekend running from one engagement to the next, kids in tow. We didn't stop running until Sunday night and unfortunately for me, I had to work this morning.

We started Saturday with a tennis lesson for the boys. After tennis, we hustled home to change and hurry on to church for a full mass in honor of my grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary. After mass, we stayed to hear my grandparents renew their vows. My grandmother's eyes glistened as she barely whispered out her vows to my grandfather. I only hope to be as happy after fifty years.

We had a family luncheon after the renewal ceremony. Then we hustled home, again, to change for a birthday party. Pizza, cake and gymnastics oh my! I pleaded exhaustion after two hours of trampoline fun and told Chris he had to head on out to our last party of the day (night) alone. I tucked the kiddies and myself into bed early.

We spent Sunday morning at a surprise birthday brunch. Aidan had a golf lesson in the afternoon, followed by a tee time for Chris. I snuck in some tennis. We finished up with dinner at the pool with a side of swimming. (Required when you haven't found time to grocery shop in almost three weeks.)

It hasn't been a particularly nice summer in the Northeast - rain, rain and more rain has led us to believe we have relocated to the Pacific Northwest, but not even the rain and a few clouds has slowed our Buffalo summer down.
