It has been a nice weekend. First bit of normalcy in a long, long time. My niece came in Friday to attend the family reunion. I haven't seen her in a couple years, so it is wonderful to have her around for a few days.

Yesterday, we walked the mall and enjoyed the day together as a family. The boys were wanting to add the game "Sorry" to our family game night repertoire, so we found it and played it last night. Lots of fun. We've probably owned that game a jillion times over the years and have thrown it away for missing pieces just as many times. Maybe this time it will finally stay intact.

We watched the movie "Hyde Park on Hudson" about FDR and King George. Good movie. Quite interesting.

Tonight my youngest got on a "it's time to start getting ready for school" kick and wanted to start reviewing/preparing for world geography and algebra, so he and I found some apps he can work on in his quest to be prepared. He is SO not like his older brothers. They would never have cared about getting ready for school. This one is my over achiever and perfectionist. Just like his mother. Poor thing.
