Thank goodness for knee pads and helmets!

We had a pretty easy going Veteran's Day. It always drives me nuts that my dad and father-in-law who are Veteran's don't have the day off of work. We hung around and did some housework this morning. It is hard to get laundry and stuff done when I am working so much. The kids and Shawn are really helpful which is great. So we did some catch up. We headed out around 1 pm to eat Subway sandwiches, shop, go to Addy's gymnastics class and hit the skatepark. It was Ty's first time at the skatepark and Cole's 2nd. Ty was about to quit but decided to hang in there and was doing great by the middle of the session. It was fun to watch the kids tonight. Cole and I had a date on Sat. and I took him to the skatepark. He spent half the session walking the ramps and sending the board down by itself. It was hilarious to watch. Finally, he got on his board, made friends and was doing awesome. It was interesting to watch of the process of him figuring out the park.
