What we've been up to

Painting Ali's room (see previous posts), going to Ryan's baseball games, waiting for Jack to walk(any day now), getting ready for summer, and a new car. Life in the Sheridan house is never dull. We are always doing something and most days I am worn to the core. This week was no different. Monday Doug made a very humbling decision to trade in his impulse buy Cadillac that we've had for 2 years and been paying almost what some people pay for their mortgage...well, maybe not THAT much but it's alot. So we got a Ford Edge. It's very cool and I told him that if I wasn't driving around 4 kids and the kids friends, I would totally drive it. My car seats 8. So on Monday we took the car for a test drive right after dropping Ali off at open gym. Wednesday Ryan had a baseball game against the Diamondbacks. Awesome game....we won something like 10-3 I think. Ali also went to youth group which she hasn't been able to do in a long time because she typically has cheer Wednesday nights. Although AJ's season is over, of course Doug has him in a clinic twice a week plus he has games on the weekend. Hockey season NEVER ends in our house. The kids have 4 more weeks of school and I have to say that I am excited. We have some small trips planned and between Ali in cheer, AJ and Ryan starting hockey tryouts in late June, their will not be a dull moment. Micah, Kylie and Cade are hopefully going to make a trip early July, and then we've got a girl's trip to Vegas in August. Mark comes home in exactly 18 days after being on an aircraft carrier for 4 months so that is another must-do trip to visit with him and Stacie and the munchkins. By the way, Happy Birthday Marky! :-)
So, that's what we've been up to. I keep asking Doug what he thinks we will do when the kids are all gone and married off.....maybe join a bowling team????
