It’s been a long time since I’ve shared a whole weekending story … and since I have an uncharacteristically colorful, and varied! batch of photos, it seemed the perfect topic for today. Since I last posted, I saw three baseball games (including our first one with lights!), enjoyed snacks-for-dinner (twice), worked my first Moms Demand Action table (it’s called “tabling”), attended my first-ever Democratic Party event (sadly, I did not get to meet Stacey Abrams – due to scheduling issues, she took the stage after I left), celebrated Charlie’s 8th birthday with a family dinner, and played Go Fish and frisbee with our two favorite boys. It looked a little like this:
Not pictured: another fantastic Zoom discussion about Louise Erdrich and The Plague of Doves, a full morning of church, and a nap 🙂
What did you find to celebrate this weekend?

The Plague of Doves zoom was a high point! I guess it is a celebration to be happily stuck at home when you’re stuck at home! 🙂
We got our boosters and our flu shots so it was a weekend of naps around here
Frisbee is such a good game for little boys! Colton loves it — it’s one of the only things that we can keep him occupied with 🙂 You had such a busy weekend — look at all of the new faces! I wish you could have met Stacey Abrams but maybe there will be another opportunity. I am way behind on the Erdrich-Along. Perhaps October will be a catch up month for me???
Well now I know why you couldn’t squeeze in our Sunday Zoom — that’s a packed weekend with lots of good things! Our Erdrich discussion was as enjoyable as always and a great distraction from my post-booster/flu shot aches. We also had gorgeous weather this past weekend, and I got my share of vitamin D.
2 Wheeling, glorious weather, a chat with Andrew and delicious pizza were work “celebrating”. Football- not so much!
There is a lot of activity here and a lot to celebrate! It’s always nice when you remember to take photos and I thank you for sharing!
Looks like a fun and very full weekend!
Hooray for a weekend of large and small celebrations. The Zoom discussion was lovely. Since we met I have been inspired to finish the book and am enjoying it. I’m not sure what was up when I first tried. i started over and am reading the story of a particular character in one sitting when possible. That provides some continuity. Having a relatively easy time after the Covid booster and being at “in-person” church on Sunday were other highlights of our weekend.
What a greta weekend you had!
seeing the photos and the boys is what life is all about. I’m so happy for you!
The boys are so fun to watch and they will be keeping you busy (young) for a long time to come! As always, I enjoy our Erdrichalong discussions!
