Lance's Birthday Weekend

So Lance wheedled got, a 3 day Birthday Weekend. Birthday weekends with Dan and Denise are big with Lorie's boys. A chance to get one on one attention and basically to do anything they want. Since Lance is a master manipulator, he has been able to get himself a 3 day birthday weekend for the last couple of years. Since of course he gets one, the other two must have 3 days as well.

Birthday weekends are rarely held near the birthday. Since a 3 day weekend requires planning, they are usually held on a weekend where one of us has a day off.  But this year Dan took Friday off work on purpose so Lance can get his weekend.

We went out on Thursday night and watched Lance and Jared at their Karate Class. They are doing so good. I was so proud. But I did notice that having us there did cause them to lose focus a couple of times. Lance can do the splits which I thought was just amazing. Jared is still working on that. But he can do cartwheels which was awesome.  After Karate Class we took the whole Koford-Robb-Platt Family out to dinner. It was on the pricey side but totally worth it.

On Friday I went off to work and Dan and Lance hung out. They got all the Figures together and went off to Mind Games. They played some strategy games there. Lance won 1 game and lost the other, but learned some good strategy and had a GREAT time. 

Today is Saturday and it snowed last night. So I think we will probably be hanging out at home today. Lance wants to play Munchkin Bites, so I think that's what we will do.  Dan stayed up late last night, and we (Lance and I) had to attack him to wake him up. Then to add insult to injury, we made him make us Breakfast.  right now he and Dan are watching Greatest Tank Battles.

I'll update more as we go, but so far it's been a pretty good weekend.
