Sunset

The sunset was beautiful tonight and Oliver had a nice time at JJ.  Mellow Tuesdays are the best.  

Oliver goes to his Dad's tomorrow.  Mom will see him on Friday for a mellow weekend.  

Monday

We had a nice evening together.  Oliver is super into the regular Full House now.  We got it at the library together this weekend.  We also worked out at the Y.  Oliver mostly did homework and just a little weight training.  Mom is glad he's home.  Happy Monday!  

Tuesday

We like when our Tuesdays aren't filled with Mom's various meetings.  

Mom picked Oliver up at Noah's.

He's always happy, happy there.  It 

makes Mom feel so relieved.

He enjoys JJ a lot too.

They used his belt as the dog bone.  

He LOVED that!

Noah came over after JJ to hang out.  His Mom

had to work late tonight.  

Oliver is obsessed with Fuller House.  Mom doesn't

mind it one bit.  She loved that show when she was little.

It's actually a pretty good show!

Our Tuesday was real simple and real good.  

Oliver will be with his Dad tomorrow.  Mom will see him on Monday, if not sooner.  

The Y

We resumed our Monday afternoon visits to the YMCA in Escondido together.  Oliver had fun going to the basketball courts while Mommy did the elliptical.  Then we did a couple weights together.  It's nice having goals, routines, and time together like this.

Slow Day

It was a slow, cat napping, resting kind of day.  

Saturday

Mom is grateful for family and friends who help us.  

Mom had to get re-certified this morning so

she could coach grateful, appreciative girls who

respect Mom as their coach and teacher. 

Oliver had fun with the Loflens while Mom learned cpr

for the hundredth time.  

They went to a soccer game!

Sweetness.

We went to a Gulls game after Oliver

spent some unexpected time with his Dad.  The transition

was very difficult.

The game was alright.  Gulls lost.

Chuck a puck.  Only 3 pucks out of a thousand won.

GUESS WHO WON!?!?!

JAMES threw his 6 pucks out and one DISNEY
ON ICE tickets!!!  So exciting!!!

Sweetness!  He never poses for pictures!

He sure did this time!

Oliver taught James how to get ignored by

the hockey stick-water boy when you

ask for a souvenir.  

Cousins

We spent our evening with the Loflens.  Swimming and playing.  Oliver was in a mood for a short bit- Mom doesn't like those moods.  We're sleeping over and Oliver will have fun in the morning playing with his cousins while Mom takes a CPR class.  She'll be wishing she was walking in the Women's March though.

It was a nice day.

These two.  

Thinking

Oliver and I have talked a little bit about what's going on on Mom's school district.  She was at a board meeting last night.  She's glad people can find the humor working with an expired contract.    Oliver will like this picture.

Oliver is with his Dad now.  Mom will see him on Friday afternoon.  

Memories

 Mom came home late tonight, Grammie spent the afternoon and evening with Oliver.   Oliver was waiting in the window for Mom as she drove up.  He came out to tell Mom sad news.  Our cousin, Dale, passed away suddenly today.  We have only been getting to know him and his family the last few years.  He was super funny and loved his family.  We're thinking about him, Sally, and Hannah.

This summer.  Dale is sitting next to Grammie.

His funny pants he wore the first time Mom met

him in 2015.  

His sweet, sweet family.

May he rest in peace.
