What a glorious weekend we had.  The weather warmed up and the kids spent some time outside Saturday. Tyler had a soccer game at 3 on Saturday and we all went to that.  We came home and I walked Tucker after I started dinner.  Tyler helped me cook, Maddie set the table and cleaned the table afterward, and Wes did dishes. It felt good to work as a team.


Today was Tom's last day of vacation so we left Rome about 9:30 am and headed to Cartersville.  We went to Cracker Barrel for breakfast, courtesy of my uncle who gave us a gift card there last Christmas.  Good heavens, my 14 year old daughter Maddie can eat!  After that, we went to Red Top Mountain to the Allatoona Battlefield, the site of a Civil War battle.  We hiked to various spots on the mountain for about an hour (it's the southernmost point of the Appalachians) and then went into Red Top mountain to eat our picnic lunch. After coming home Tom and I crashed, er, took a nap for a bit, while the kids relaxed, read a book, and played with buddies.  Now they're at a youth event (picnic and Ultimate Frisbee) at Berry College.  Tom will find it hard to return to work tomorrow and we'll probably be slowly making our way back to school after a great spring break.


Saturday's workout:  Shape Lean and Strong Yoga; 1 1/2 mile dog walk


Today's workout:  2 plus mile hike on the mountain; Element Am/Pm Yoga for Beginners, PM practice
