I mentioned last week that Riley's high school football team was going to State so...we did too.  It was a late game but Riley and her friend had a great time at the game.  Apparently, she discovered that she didn't hate watching the game.

For the first time in a very long time, I went Black Friday shopping.  But I wasn't going for Christmas presents, I was an extra person picking up beer with Rick at 6AM.  HAHA.  We got most of what he wanted and got to see friends...so it was all good.

Riley and her #schoolsquad decided to go out ice skating tonight.  Rick was meeting friends for drinks and needed a ride after so we had to do some complicated timing.  The girls ended up going for pizza next door to where Rick was so I could go back and forth.  The pizza was amazing.  We took the girls to the fairgrounds to skate and Riley was surprisingly adept at it until she fell down.  But they had fun and Rick had fun so it was all good.

We got an early start this morning.  I was at mom and dad's by 8 and Riley went with Uncle Jason to take meals to people who have to work today, like police and fire department.  The food was amazing, the stories were great and the family time was perfect.

I took the day off from work and Riley was off school.  She spent 6 hours at the gym, two of which were used to figure out some of her hig school routines.  I wasn't smart enough to do that last year.  We also went to the Children's Museum AND we went to Sarah Fisher's Karting Course.  So much fun!!!

Joe, Michele and Will went to the symphony so Audrey went to gymnastics while Riley was coaching.  She was adorable and had so much fun.  Oh, and I drew a turkey.

I have the feeling that this is going to be a whirlwind week.  With Joe's family in town, Riley out of school and Thanksgiving break, we are chock full of plans.

Today, Rick picked me up from work and we met the family at the Market downtown.  Then I took Audrey to my house and everyone else went to the Pacer game.  We played with the cat and watched a movie.  Then when Riley got home from practice, the three of us went back downtown and traded Audrey for Rick.

November 18, 2018 - Rock Climbin'

We had mass at 8 and class at 9:15.  We were able to be at my parents' by 11:15 for brunch with the whole family then off to rock climbing by 1.  Riley still doesn't like it but her friends go so she wants to go.  Ugh.  We left there, grabbed a sandwich and were home for about an hour before meeting Joe at his Air B n B which was amazingly awesome.  It was in an old department store in downtown Indy.  Finally, we met up with everyone for dinner at Buca di Beppo.   So funny aside, we were rock climbing and one of Riley's youth group friends brought his older sister who goes to Purdue, did DM and was actually on the committee that sponsored Riley.  Small world, eh?
