Life as we know it

 We got to babysit this cute little monkey! He's a dream. His brother and sister were too busy playing to stop for the photo shoot.
 On our drive to school on Friday.
 These 3 helped at Ladiesfest, volunteering at water station #1. In my books, they are #1  :)
 Owen was in the paper on Friday. Then, there was this article about Roxy and her cousins in Saturday's edition. I joked with Rox that another Stewart better step up for Sunday's paper! She smiled.
 The perfect storm of sports! Loved the title of this article. As we are a bit of sport junkies around here, Saturday meant trying to do our work and still catch a few highlights.
 We did take a break to eat. Thank you for nourishing us, Cafe Verde. After two unsuccessful trip- they close at 8pm on some nights. Sometimes,  I haven't even thought "What's for supper" by that hour- we were richly blessed with yummy burritos and a drink of Horchata! Bruce was out running with Ramona. They got the same thing when they were done.
And we didn't just watch TV sports. We ran over to see Sara play in the Finals of "Battle at the 'Bridge". It went into overtime, but they won in the end! When we left Owen said "Well, that was a dramatic night!"

Oh, I ran in Ladiesfest on the weekend, too. But that's another post. My thoughts about what to say about it are still percolating. Saying "It was a great day." just doesn't do it justice.

Great post!! What a busy weekend you had. Busy, but awesome. I loved the article about Roxy. I don't know her, yet have come to love her through your words and she is definitely someone who the world is better for having.

Hello Stewarts!

So nice to see that you are all doing so well. I love reading your posts and 'catching up'. We really do have to arrange a phone call one of these days. It's been WAY TOO long!
