leaving early!

it is 4:30 and i am getting ready to leave for the grocery store. we never close early, but we are today and i am thrilled. mario, heather and christopher are coming over for dinner and to hang out and i am making cookies tonight and will hopefully needlepoint some- we will see. i intend to work on robin and aarons quilt tomorrow. i finally finished a needlepoint i have been working on for the last 2 years (my time is so small) and have it stretching and drying right now. it is to go into a leather bag i am making for mom. i am really excited about it so i hope that she likes it. owens team did not score any points today, but owen actually played hard and tried which was fun to see. usually he is just excited to be there and that is about how far it goes. ian had a good day at martial arts and tried to earn his next belt, although he needs some more work. i am happy that he is trying though and doing a great job. i am so happy with his teacher and the facility that he has created. the class is so well controlled but the kids are having fun and love to be there. he is such an amazing teacher. jules soccer team did win and dominated the entire time (as usual). jules teamates are all larger kids like he is. they are tall and stong and fast. they dominated every year so far. jule is a great goalie and loves to play. mike and i started life coaching yesterday and will go on wendsdays from now on. i am very excited about it and hope that good comes out of it. we are going to the same one that i have been taking ian to. she has been amazing with ian. his attitude is so much better and he has goals daily that he tries to acheive (mainly personal but some physical too like getting his homework done......). hope you all are having a wonderful weekend and i will post some pics next time. i didn't remember to take the camera with me today.
