Well, it was Turn Off TV Week this past week....it was a long week. While we don't really watch a lot of television, it sure is nice to put in a movie when I'm trying to get dinner on the table and to get the kiddos settled before bedtime. Without our TV, the kids were left to their own devices...let's just say that it seemed like I cleaned their bedrooms and hauled toys out of the livingroom at least every twenty minutes each evening AND ALL WEEKEND! Today was the last day of this torturous week....and we turned the TV back on this afternoon. Whew!!!
So, anywho, what did we do all weekend? Well, Megan had her little buddy, Jaymee, over for a sleepover Friday night. I don't think they actually slept much...they didn't even get to bed until 10:30-ish. We all got up early Saturday morning, ate the best pancakes I've ever made (I am pancake-challenged!), and made it to Kellan's 9 am soccer game. As usual, our little athlete played his heart out and scored 4 goals! Yesterday afternoon I took a nap with Jacksen while Marc took Megan, Jaymee and Kellan to Exploration Works and a movie. Then, in honor of Miss Megan's perfect 3rd quarter report card, we enjoyed dinner at Jade Garden (her choice). By the time we got home it was 8:00 and the kids were completely exhausted...we were ALL in bed by 8:30!
Today, Marc, Megan and Kellan went to church while Mr. Jacksen and I went grocery shopping. Megan played soccer at 11:45 - it was cold and windy but she played GREAT! She scored 2 goals and probably played her best game ever! Even though we froze while watching her game, we really enjoyed it.
I guess that pretty much sums up the weekend...I can hardly believe I didn't take a single picture...I need to be better about that!

Very impressive! I would love to do something like that... I just don't know how I would survive with out my TV babysitting my boys for me. I sounds awful, but it is such a big help to put them in front of a movie while I cook or quick start a load of laundry!
