Legos and band auditions

Another busy Saturday at the Stokes' house. Lorie and Meagan both are on school teams for the FIRST Lego League (www.firstlegoleague.org) that went to the regional qualifier today. Neither team ended up qualifiying for state, but Lorie's team won first place (and a trophy) for the research part. I felt badly for Meagan because she's always sure that she's going to win something and her teams ususally don't do very well. I don't know why that is. If she's on a team that does well, it's always such a surprise.

We're about to go out on our "B" night. Someone gave us a gift certificate package for Stevi B's and then we're going to use movie gift certificates that Lori gave me to watch the Bee Movie.

Tomorrow is church, choir practice and then a party for one of the kids' friends. It's a Treasure Hunt theme and all four kids are invited, so I'm using that time to work on the hosue and to get things squared away for next week! Time to get them ducks in a row!!!

Wow- that is a big weekend. We are just starting extra curricular stuff for the kids - this round it is 8:35am swim lessons for Peter...he was originally in a more civilized 9:35 class but was 'bumped up'...seriously, unless a kid is an Olympic contender, I'm not doing 8:35 weekend lessons EVER AGAIN. Sorry kids.

That is strange about Meagan, she seems resilient though...that is a good thing.
