Happy Sunday! It is almost 4 PM, and I may still be in my pajamas. All I can say is thank goodness for days off! Holly and I have been busy with recital season. Monday and Tuesday were dress rehearsals for the variety show. Wednesday was the first recital, while we had two recitals on Saturday. The parents got together and performed a flash mob at the Saturday evening show, so we had rehearsals for that on Thursday. On Friday, my mother-in-law came to visit for the next two weeks. See why I am still in my pajamas and thankful for days off?
Next week is more of the same. Holly’s ballet recitals are Friday night and Saturday night, so she has four evenings of rehearsals this week. I will be working behind the scenes as part of the tech crew, so I will be right with her this week. I’m looking forward to it and dreading it at the same time. It makes for very long days, but it is so much fun to see them performing.
Work is going really well. It’s amazing how different it is to actually enjoy going to work every morning. It changes your whole outlook of the day.
The kids are officially done with school as of Wednesday. This does not mean they are on summer vacation though. In addition to dress rehearsals, Connor has marching band practice for the next few weeks. Connor also has his first orthodontics appointment to evaluate whether he needs braces or not. Being busy is how we like it, I guess!
I’m exhausted. Holly and I didn’t get back from the recital until midnight. Between showers and putting flowers in vases, I don’t think either of us was in bed before 1 AM, and I didn’t fall asleep until after 2 AM. It’s been a long time since I’ve done those types of hours. I think it may be nap time.
Have a great Sunday afternoon and a wonderful week!
