The bonus week

P had planned to go to New Orleans this week on a mission trip with our church. In a blazing moment of clarity last Thursday night, however, he realized that he should really be spending that week off from work with his family. I had been praying that he return from New Orleans with a little perspective, but hey, if you can get that standing in the kitchen, that works, too!

And so in addition to the usual smattering of baseball practices & games, swimming lessons, friends over to play, errands and such, we had tons-o-fun with daddy this week. O & I are keeping a Summer Fun Journal, and a notables from this week include.... two trips to the baseball card store, seeing Kung Fu Panda, setting up our tent in the basement, riding the Tow Path with the Hurst boys, and a trip to the Akron Zoo (see below).
