Quick catch up for the week!

I don't know if this last week has been so busy I haven't had time to write my blog.......or so boring I have had nothing to say!!
The boys went back to school after their Spring Break. They seem to enjoy it still, I don't have any problems in the morning and after school they still say their days were brilliant or great.
I seem to spend my days doing housework and ....can I even bring myself to say it.............SHOPPING!!!!! I hate shopping! I'm one of those odd women that get bored within ten minutes of being in a store!
I must of been really bad in a former life, and this is my punishment. Whereas once my hands were filled with glasses of wine and my lip gloss, now they are permanently attached to a shopping trolley...sorry - cart!
The first part of the week tripped past, nothing very exciting there!
On Thursday we had our neighbour over for dinner cos his wife was away. Nicholas and Christina are lovely. They have a little 18 month old called Thomas. Nicholas is from Columbia and has promised to cook us some Columbian food!
Afterwards, we went for an orientation evening at the middle school, where Alex will start in August. It's huge. Some 2500 children!! But like everything else he seems to be taking it in his stride!
Friday morning I helped out in Jordan's class at school, with their 'math olympics'. The boys love it when I am at school with them.
Friday evening we went to an open air movie in the park. It was free, we just took our chairs along. Free movie, free popcorn, free drinks, free ices, free hot dogs!???
Should of known the god squad were involved! It was a very pleasant evening though to be honest. And we only had to get up raise our hands and turn around to praise our Jesus a few times!! It was all very modern and funky. Apparently this church is "casual and comtemporary!" whatever that means!
Saturday Mr. Smith took Alex to the mall to meet his friend, and did a bit of shopping! Unlike myself, Mr. Smith loves shopping!!! He will often pop out about 8 or 9 o clock at night to pick something up, or rather strangely just to look around at stuff!
Om Sunday, Jordan had a birthday party to go to at Fort Discovery, so we dropped him off and took Alex and Ethan to Downtown Augusta for lunch, where we found a little tapas bar called "Tap Tap Tapas and Tacos" and had lunch and a few glasses of wine. It was delicious!
After we picked Jordan up we went to the 'Fresh Market', a store with fresh organic food and some imported food. We found Marmite and........Cadburys chocolate fingers! That was it for British food. Bummer! Actually though, their fruit and veg and salad dressings, butcher and bakery looked wonderful. Got the boys some sausages for dinner, real sausages, not the fake "breakfast" ones they do here!
When we got home the boys decided to make Star Wars decorated easter eggs, which we had forgotten to do at Easter (Bad Mum!) and then got ready for bed. Their CRCTs start tomorrow. If they don't pass these tests, they can't move up a grade. This place is seriously test obsessed!!!!
As we haven't been here very long we have told them to just do their best, how they can reach Georgia standards of testing when they have only been in school in Georgia for a few weeks is beyond me!!!
So maybe I had something to say about the week after all! That will teach me a lesson for not writing daily won't it? I think for my punishment I should go......................SHOPPING!!!!AAAHHH!
