On Tuesday, April 25, we woke up to a light covering of snow on the grass. 'Time spent with cats is never wasted.' ~Sigmund Freud It is always a good reminder to stop and relax when we see the deer doing just that in our backyard. We shared our dinner together and they headed back home.Īs a family, we discussed the upcoming week, and each of us indicated we were pretty worn out from an emotional time. Sunday, we welcomed our cousins in the afternoon and enjoyed hanging out. We were thankful for the relaxing evening and the company.

Saturday evening, Auntie Jo came over with two hot pizzas and chocolate covered fruit. Even though we didn't see the sunshine, the laughter and smiles from our Cam Fans kept us warm. Patti, Cara and her daughter Jenna were the first to show up and then Aunt Betsy and Uncle Jon appeared! It was a great game. After finishing his photo opp, Cam was very surprised to see multiple baseball fans! Ms. We had to arrive early since it was the official picture day for the players. Saturday morning, after sleeping in, we geared up for the WMML baseball game scheduled for 11am.

The weather was perfect and Cam loved his fajitas. He agreed and even though it was crowded, our waiter was someone we knew and it was fun chatting. We asked if he would 'take one for the team' and sit outside at Lalos for our meal. After a busy day of Mom and son projects, Cam told Jane he was tired. Since it was Cinco de Mayo, we had pre-planned a family dinner at a Mexican restaurant where we could eat outside. All recipients were quite excited to receive! We picked up treats to drop off at Brody's Be Cafe and Chris's office. Pat is always delighted to see her buddy. We always bring her a Christmas card and she has told Cam that she's saved every one of them. Pat has worked there as long as we've been going, since Cam was 4 or 5 years old. Their day began by taking a trip to Heidi's Farmstand. Jane had scheduled a vacation day so she could spend extra time with her son. Thursday was Cameron's last full day of school since Friday was a professional day for the district teachers. The remainder of the week went by quickly. When he arrived home from school, he indicated he was glad he went. This week, we needed distractions and thankfully, the activities delivered just that.Ĭam wasn't certain he would be up for going to school on Monday, but a field trip was planned and we encouraged him to attend.
