Different evening

This was quite the different Friday night for our family. Rachel had her first "hanging out with friends at the mall" night. She wanted to go see the new Percy Jackson movie that came out today with a set of twins from school. Their sister had to go to work at the mall this evening so I got Rachel to their house in time to go with her. The first movie showing was booked so the girls went shopping for presents for another friend that they have a birthday party to go to later this month. She was a bit hyper to say the least when she got home shortly after 10 pm.
Mark had volunteered to take our AWANA grand prix track to Allegan for them to use tomorrow. So he took Stephen with him. They had dinner at Sonic & didn't get back till 10 pm either.
That left Joshua & I at home. We went to Fazoli's for dinner & then Joshua played on the computer & watched TV. I did the usual & fell asleep on the couch watching TV & completely missed the opening ceremonies that I wanted to see. Joshua didn't seem to mind not doing much because he did have the computer and TV to himself, not to mention he was still up when every one got home at 10.
Tomorrow we are going to be scattered throughout much of the day too. We will all go to Joshua's basketball game at 11 am. Then Rachel is going with a family from church to put on a show at a nursing home & hang out at their house for a while. It is homecoming week at Cornerstone so Mark is taking the boys to see the women's and men's basketball games in the afternoon while I get some sleep. I believe Mark & Stephen are going to see a movie then in the evening.
You better believe that Sunday will be much more settled at home as the boys are all looking forward to Daytona. Stephen was really excited that I had the Gatorade Duels on when he came home Thursday afternoon. He was able to watch the second one which is the one that Tony was in anyway. So now that football is over, it is on to NASCAR.

I don't know what's really different with this story since it's like a usual day routine. But anyway, you were the one who experienced so I don't have the right to judge what you feel.
