Another Super Party

Tonight was the Super Bowl.  I must say it was pretty anticlimactic even though the game was close.  We had fun eating like pigs and playing silly games like throw thus ball at Jeffrey.  Then I got to be an extra in a short film about teen alcohol consumption.  We will see how that one turns out and if I get any calls from Hollywood.  

Tomorrow is our family Sabbath.  I am hoping that we can go shopping for a new guitar tomorrow.   I really need to get a nice acoustic electiric for the Student Connection so I can bring mine home.  I'm worried it will get broken and it is one that is special to me.  Hopefully one of my kids will play guitar and I can pass it down to them.  So I am hopefully going to Bob's soon to get a 'work' guitar.  I could buy one online but then I won't get to hear it first.  It has to be just right you know.  Picky musicians.

We are dine with basketball now.  I'm sure I will find something to fill the hole.  We started preseason baseball practice Saturday so that will keep me a little bit busy.  I am not going to be as involved this year as I have been in the past.  I have committed to being there every Tuesday, whatever happens to be going on.  I want to be involved, but my family is growing and I need more time at home.  I also take summer online classes and less baseball will give me more study time.  At least give me more time I should be studying.

Other projects for the summer include repairing our camper that we bought this fall.  The engine kind of blew up so Scott and I, well mostly Scott, are going to fix it.  Hopefully it is not just a money pit.  He seems confident and competent so I am excited to see how it goes. We also need to put up a fence in our lawn and put up some playground equipment.  We live out in the country, but it makes Annie nervous to have the kids wandering the property if she can't see them.  I would really like to work this summer on converting the old pig house on our property into a sort of apartment.  It will need quite the cleaning and lots of work, but I think it could be really cool.  I tried to talk Mark into moving in there and being our indentured servant, but he wasn't so sure.  Maybe Cameron would?  I think it would be cool to have it as kind of a retreat/ guest house/ emergency shelter.  It could also just be a fun place to have company.  Good friends of ours converted a shed into a gameroom and it is pretty neat.  I might have to call in some favors from them.

Good night and a blessed week to everyone.
