Family Ice Cream Night

Family Ice Cream Night

Tonight we went out for a family night, just the four of us. We were going to go and eat over at Mashpee commons but there really wasn’t anywhere there that we wanted to go. So, instead we went around the corner to Cooke’s Seafood. We had never been there before and it was a pretty decent place. We were a bit full of seafood from the night before but that didn’t stop us from enjoying some calamari and clam chowder and more. I got a burger, which was a mistake. I should have just gone for fish and chips or something like that. They did the seafood well.

After dinner we went to Smitty’s for some ice cream. The kids liked the flavors and we met a student who was going to Saint A’s. Allison noticed the tip jar had the student’s colleges on it and I asked our server which one of them went to Saint A’s. It turns out that she was going there. Studying nursing, of course.

The First Day of Summer 2017

First Day of Summer

On the first day of Summer Andrew is not feeling himself at all. He’s lethargic and not interested in eating. He says that his legs are tired. We didn’t go to Karate because of this and instead I took Eva out for some Father/Daughter time for ice cream. I was going to take the whole family, but again, Andrew not feeling quite right. We were concerned so much that I slept ont he floor of his room overnight in case he got up and got sick. Probably not the best place to sleep if we thought he’d get sick but just to be close enough so that I could do something if he needed me.

Taking Eva out for Ice Cream was nice. We had some really good bonding time together. I wish that I could spend much more time with her. She is such a sensitive soul and so passionate for things that she loves. She’s taken to Stop Motion with her LEGO bricks and it is very cool. I need to spend more time with her on helping her improve her skills. She has great ideas but needs help on some execution and technique. She has no shortage of ideas.

Tonight I unboxed a few things that came in the mail. I backed a Kickstarter for a thing called the MicRig. This finally arrived and it is pretty decent. I also got my Marvel Unlimited 3 year gift box, it has some cool stuff inside. Take a look in the video.
