Last Monday, both boys were home from school for President's Day so we headed to the Museum of Nature and Science. I think a jungle gym would have been a better venue, but we survived and even went out to lunch before we head home for a nice afternoon of naps, workbooks, and watching Ratatouille. All followed by our typical Monday trek to swimming lessons.
D-man also was off from school on Tuesday so I decided to take him up to Eldora outside of Boulder for a lesson. We got up bright an early and took T-man to school and headed off. It was a beautiful sunny day and I enjoyed reading my book, taking a nap in the car, and taking in the sun.

I met D-man over on the small hill and he was able to go down a few times without the instructor and I was impressed by his speed and ability to turn and stop on his own. And most importantly, he had a good time and asked when he would be able to go skiing again.

We wrapped up Tuesday with basketball practice and then picking up Boston Market to support Highline Academy. It was actually a great night for Boston Market because Mom and Dad made the decision to drive to Denver on Tuesday and arrived about the same time we got home. What a special treat to have some extra time with them.
Wednesday brought a wonderful lunch outing with Mom and Dad at Benihana's. Our planned afternoon of relaxing was halted when we got a call from Drake's school and I spent the afternoon at the doctor's and getting a prescription (don't get me started about paying $107 for a generic prescription as I wait for COBRA to kick in and get reimbursed). Unfortunately, that meant that D-man wouldn't be going to swimming lessons, but Tanner was able to show off for Mom and Dad.
And after the start to this week, it meant that I was more than ready for our Vegas trip!
