Happy Monday! I’m here with Holly sharing some fun from our weekend. I hope you’ll link up with us for Hello Monday!

I did one thing this weekend. I went to a swim meet. Luckily it was close so we didn’t have to get a hotel, but I spent the whole weekend at the meet. I love swim meets and I am so glad I was there. The boys swam 13 events and had 10 best times. It was great to see their hard work pay off. I accidently signed Jack up to swim two distance events on Friday night. He swam 400 IM and 500 free. Oops! He didn’t fight me on it and did a great job!

We were at the pool at 6:30 for Luke’s warmups on Saturday morning and I didn’t leave until Jack finished at 5:30. Jeff brought Jack and took Luke home midday. This meet was different because we were all in a gym together. It was fun to watch the boys with their friends and get to talk to them during a meet. Usually they sit on deck and we are in the bleachers.

Sunday we were back at 6:30 but left around 4.

Over the course of the weekend, Jack swam 7 events and got 6 best times. Luke swam 6 events and got 4 best times. They are both clearly working hard in practice and it’s paying off!

I did manage to get out for a walk all 3 days. It was a little chilly but the fresh air felt great!

We got home Sunday afternoon, got ready for the week, and watched the Super Bowl.

Oh, and while Luke and I were at the pool on Saturday morning, Jeff was coaching Jack’s basketball team to a good win.

I had a great time this weekend and I wouldn’t trade my swim meet weekends for anything!

I am also linking up with the Not Just a Mom ladies for their monthly linkup. This month we are sharing house rules. When I sat down to think about our house rules, I had a hard time coming up with many. Here are the house rules that keep this family going:

• No eating on the second floor, in the basement, or the family room.
• Lunches are always packed the night before.
• Bookbags and sports bags are always hung up in the mud room.
• Kids empty the dishwasher before school on school days.
• All devices stay downstairs over night.
• No tv or devices on school days, unless it’s too rainy or cold to go outside.

Those rules make my life a little easier and keep our house in some semblance of order. I’m sure they will change as the seasons change, but right now those are it.

We have a pretty regular week with a few practices and a five day week for school. I’ll be back tomorrow to share what I’ve been reading. If you blogged today, be sure to share your link below. Have a great day full of sunshine and books!
