Yesterday we tried to go out to see Richmond. I wanted to go to Hollywood Cemetery to see Jefferson Davis, JEB Stuart, and some other generals of the CSA (and presidents of the USA)'s graves. However...we didn't ever find Stuart's - even looking at the map. I think we'll go back in a few months when they have walking tours & it's warmer.
Then we parked by the Holocaust Museum down here so we could find some place to eat. We did find this lovely little Lebanese cafe. We had these amazing omletes and great salads. I do think the salads were mostly grass - I had a clover in mine. But it was good. Then we realized we didn't bring the stroller or enough money to go. Yeah, we're smart. Ugh! I was really disappointed, but I guess we'll have next weekend if we want to go. So we all came home to take naps.
Oh and we went through 2 tolls...not a big deal but I had just cleaned my purse out of its change. Luckily, I hadn't cleaned the change out of the diaper bag! Otherwise...we wouldn't have known what to do. haha.

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read...

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp...
