A Lovely Day

We started at the Waterbury Mall watching The Bee Movie for free. Gotta love those free movies on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings! The boys don't care that we've seen most of them already; a movie in the theater is always a treat.

Then we had planned to go to Mixville Park today with playgroup, but since it rained last night, it got canceled; people were too worried about bacteria, from goose poop washing into the water. So, while most of playgroup went to DiNicola Park, we went to Kids in Motion, which is the new park here in our town. The boys hate DiNicola and didn't want to go. Luckily we had other friends join us: The W's, who are off from school for the summer, and The E's, who we only just met recently. They live in our town and the 13-year-old also goes to school (but was there since he is now off), but the younger guy (5) will be homeschooled. We all had a really nice time together.

After that we headed home for a quick smoothie and then were off for the boys' first golf lesson. I was concerned it would be cheesy since it is so darn cheap, but the boys really loved it and are looking forward to returning for the next six Wednesdays. R says they will learn a lot from the class.

I was glad I had thought to call ahead and order a pizza to pick up on the way home (still no cell phone here). It was great not to have to think about dinner in the 30 minutes I was home; at 6:15 I headed out to my womyn's circle, and the boys headed out to play with the neighborhood kids.

Life is so darn good :-)
