Lola in Texas again - Austin Day 8

End of the work week and it was a great day.  This is the longest Lola has ever been in Texas I think.  Also I have been here the same amount of times as Hawaii.... looks like we might need to change that statistic (but Austin might surpass that this year)

Kids got up, we ate breakfast and then headed outside in the backyard.  We had a great time. I was trying to get a nice photo of the kids, but didn't turn out that way.  Then they started playing with the wagon, B pulling T (buckled in), T starts shouting "Hawaiian rollercoaster Ride" and then he tips over.  They really had a great time.  It was nice to sit outside in the 17 degree C weather as well as kick the ball around a little.

Lola made lunch while the kids played in the playroom (very nicely), quiche and strawberries and yogurt.  It was good. 

Nap time was next.  While the kids were in their rooms not sleeping for a while but very quite, MBMell had to go run an errand to get the faucet that was being replaced.  The kids finally fell asleep after she got back, and had a great nap.   During this time Lola cleaned out the fridge and freezer (DD placed all the food in their from the other house, so it needed to be sorted and checked for expiry.  Once MBMell got back, they mounted furniture in the den area, and hung up the chalk board.  They also built the second leaning shelf and mounted them. 

After kids woke up, they had some ipad time and we put up the new curtain rod for T.  We had to get to yardhouse so we could finally have a meeting with DD.  We got the kids ready and out the door we went.  DD actually beat us there.

We had a great meal, and the kids even got ice cream. 

Once back at the house, we put the kids to bed, and then ate ice cream. Oh don't forget about the fridge tutorial i had to give DD, about where things were and how to put things away :)

Up next, DD really wanted to try out his new 65" QLED 4KHDR tv he purchased last weekend.  So into the Guest Suite it goes, as there are no couches in the current living room. It was quite the process and you are not allowed to touch the screen.  The screen is thinner than our cellphones, it is crazy.  We watched some 4K tv before setting up the Playstation Pro. Now i am blogging, MBMell is sleeping and DD is still trying to set up all the stuff.  He is pretty excited, but the picture is amazing.  And did you know that Sloths can swim?  Planet Earth 2 showed us... it was so cool!

Oh yeah and we ate ice cream!

Tomorrow is my last day before time to go home.  it is bitter sweet, and hopefully I make it home as Delta sent me a message saying that there may be delays as weather is coming through the "area" i am flying through.

We have a long list again to get through tomorrow, wish us luck, but we are feeling very good about the progress we have made this week! Oh and the steps this week for me are amazing... usually don't beat War but that much.  102,946 steps in 5 days, no wonder my feet are a little sore....

Hopefully DD can take car of the kids tomorrow so we can get lots of work done :)

Night, Lola.
