Weekend Review--a little late!

Our weekend started out Friday afternoon when Anneli and I dropped Aunt Valerie off at the Train Station in Waterbury. She was heading to New York City to visit Johann. Oh how her weekend rendezvous remind me of my own to Washington, DC/Virgina to visit Shaun when we were dating...years ago! Here's our story if you don't remember.

That evening we met Shaun at the bowling alley here in town for a Cub Scout Bowling night. Super fun! Anneli did pretty good the first game and then she got a little tired. Christopher did a great job and had fun with his friends! They can't wait to bowl again! :)

Saturday there was swimming lessons early in the morning. Thanks Meme and Pepe for coming to watch! Then we all went out to lunch at Lee Po Chinese Kitchen in Bristol. It's one of our favorite places to eat! YUMMMY and the prices are very reasonable, especially for lunch. There were six of us and our lunch included soup and an entree with rice--the bill came to $32! Not bad! We definately recommed it!

After lunch we did a little shopping and then back to Meme and Pepe's house and hung out there. Pepe hasn't been feeling too good and the kids missed him last week, so they enjoyed spending some time with him!

Sunday morning came too soon as always! WE got up and got dressed and headed off for church. Sunday was our Childrens Presentation to the Congregation--(Primary Presentation). Christopher, looking all grown up in his khakis, white shirt, tie and blue blazer, did an awesome job with his speaking parts and singing with the other kids! We are so proud of him. He has grown up sooooo fast!

After church we always head over to Meme and Pepe's for lunch. Pepe cooked chicken, sweet potatoes, and some yummmy fresh beans! Thanks Dad--we really look forward and appreciate Sunday Dinner! We love the food and love spending time together! :) After that everyone, except Anneli and I, went outside to get rid of all the leaves in their backyard. With Pepe not feeling well last week, all the leaves fell and kept piling up! While they were outside Anneli slept on the couch with Lily, my parents dog. She was exhausted and had a little runny nose. Hopefully she's not getting sick!!

It was a nice and relaxing weekend here for a change. I'm sure it won't last though... As I look at the calendar, the holidays are approaching and it sure looks cRaZy here! :)
