It's almost the end of January and I have not blogged one time about our January adventures. That's ok though, because we really have not been up to much this month. It's been really "cold" here this month which has deterred me from wanting to leave my house. I did get my pantry organized...well sort of. I am still working on that project, but I would say it's 75% done. I still need to get more containers and move things around, but it does feel good to get it cleaned out.
After our trip to WI Max was excited to get back to AZ to see his doggies. Sammy ended up getting kennel cough from doggie daycare all week so she ended up at the vet to get some drugs. After a couple days though she was much better.
Max's activity calendar has been keeping us very busy. He is in flag football, golf and skateboard lessons right now. It's crazy busy during the week here. That's our fault though. We didn't realize how much we signed him up for until it was too late. Oops!
Max has flag football practice during the week and games on Friday nights. His team is call the Packers and his first game was last Friday night. We all love the team name! It was so fun to watch him and his teammates. The team lost by one touchdown at the very last second of the game. These boys played really hard.
Max wanted a skateboard for Xmas and the agreement with getting a skateboard is that he takes lessons to learn how to ride it. I know if he doesn't learn how to ride the skateboard he will never use it and it will sit in our garage collecting dust. I found someone who comes to the house once a week to teach Max. He has had two lessons so far and he absolutely loves it. It's so fun to watch him trying so hard to learn and get excited when he can do something. He was so excited for his first lesson that by the time I got home from work he was ready to go with his pads on. Max waited for Dee to arrive by hanging out in the driveway. He even thanked me afterward for the lessons because he learned a lot and had fun. These lessons will go on for six weeks. Right now they are held in our driveway, but the goal is to get Max to the skateboard park in the end.
Here's Dee teaching Max his first trick. It's called the popcorn. After a few tries Max was able to do it without Dee's help. He was so excited to do this.
Max is also doing golf lessons once a week on Thursday nights. This is at the same golf club with the same instructor that he's been seeing on and off for a couple years. After his lesson he joins Andy and Grandpa T in the clubhouse for a lemonade.
I had a childhood friend in town so we spent one day at the spa. Don't let this picture fool you, it was a pretty cold day. Too cold for swimming anyway.
We haven't done much in January, but we have done a lot for Max's activities.
