We went for a run on Saturday morning and stopped on the way home to get iced coffee. The rest of the day was basically boring productivity time - Jen ran to the DMV and the butcher, I did stuff around the house and took care of the babies, and then went to the coffee shop to work on some things. We put the kids to bed when I got home and then grilled steak and watched a movie.
My brother and his girlfriend arrived late Saturday night, so we spent Sunday at my parents' with them. My brother made a ridiculous amount of food, like always - chicken/shrimp/fish tacos, asparagus and spinach alfredo, stuffed mushrooms. After dinner we took the kids home and put them to bed, and I went back to my parents' and stayed way too late playing cards.
Friday - We came back from Philly in the rain, stopped by the outlets, and then came home and had a lazy afternoon.
Saturday - L and the kids went to Home Depot while I studied for my certification exam. We dropped L's car off for repairs, and then went to see the boys' godfather, his wife, and their new baby. Grayson LOVED the baby and was so good with her - holding her, feeding her, etc. He says he wants to take care of babies when he grows up. Came home and then went to dinner and get frozen yogurt.
Sunday - L and the kids went to Home Depot again and then worked on planting our patio gardens while I studied. We went to lunch, did some errands, and then took the kids swimming. L and I didn't get in, but OMG it was cold. I couldn't believe that the kids weren't freezing. Grilled burgers for dinner and then the kids crashed before 8. L and I stayed up watching The Tonys.

Friday: After E and I ran a few errands, we headed home for pizza and a movie and relaxing before the busy weekend.
Saturday: We got up and painted the box for E's drive-in movie theater car. E's dad came over and we spent until almost 1pm working on the decorating of said car. Once we got started on it, it was kind of fun. After E's dad left we had lunch and drove into the city for the Seattle science expo. There were a ton of booths, activities and hands-on stuff. There were a lot of people there since the weather was nice, so initially E was a little intimidated. But she got into it and got to do some cool stuff. It was fun and if we can, we'll go back again next year. Afterwards we stopped to get a dad's day gift from E for her dad and then stopped at a favorite Thai place for dinner.
Sunday: Laundry and chores in the morning, E had a birthday party at 1pm at a gymnastics place. Afterwards we got groceries and E's dad came over to help E finish tricking out her car complete with a plexiglass windshield. Then it was dinner, bath, bed in short order.
