Passport, Practice, a little puking, padding and some Penguins!

So as most of you know last weekend,  a nasty stomach bug made it around my family, not allowing anyone to escape. This was why there was no blog for the faithful few on Monday morning. The good news is that we have all made a full recovery, and I returned to work on Thursday.

On Saturday morning, we stopped at the library for our regular book and DVD exchange, which the boys love! Liesel took Nathan to find his new books, while Josh and I solved puzzles, played with puppets and read some books together. Right afterward, we went across the road to the Post Office, as we had an appointment to apply for Nathan's US Passport. Hopefully, within a few weeks, he will also have a nice, shiny blue passport to travel on!
I left Liesel and the boys and headed to a Saturday band practice. On the evening of March 10, my band, the Remnant, will be playing worship songs at Bay Presbyterian Church in Bay Village. Those of you living in the area are invited to come and join us! As March 10, is just around the corner, our practices are becoming more important as we polish up our songs for the big night!

On Sunday morning, Liesel woke up to find that Josh had thrown up sometime during the night, all over his bedding, blankets and pajamas :( She immediately kicked into high gear, starting the cleaning process. I was able to take both boys to Church, while Liesel stayed at home and finished up the cleaning (even cleaning a carpet!) After a great church service, I took the boys to our local sporting superstore, so that my Football-mad son, Nath, could try on some football helmets. We had a good guys morning out wandering through the sports store, trying on different football pads and helmets!

To end off the weekend, we had borrowed "Mr Popper's Penguins" from the library, and Nathan, Josh and I settled down to watch it! We all thoroughly enjoyed it, especially Josh with his deep love for animals! Great end to a good weekend!
