more extended family fun

On Monday, my aunt and two sons were still in town.  My husband was working from home, so I decided to meet my aunt's family and my mom.  We opted to meet at the Glow in the Dark mini golf at our local mall. 

My mom, aunt and I watched the boys play mini golf with my cousins, Hunter and Jeffrey.  I had asked Hunter to "not play so well" if SJ was having trouble.  Being that he is 18, he understood.  They all seemed to have a great time.  I was waiting to hear SJ getting agitated, but I never heard him fuss a bit.  Whew! 

After mini golf, we went to Dick's Sporting Goods to get a few things.  My aunt wanted to get a Pittsburgh Pirate's Zoltran shirt for Jeffrey and I needed new badminton rackets.  That stop only took a few minutes and then we drove to Chili's for lunch.

Jeffrey initially wanted to go to Eat 'n Park, but he was fine with going to Chili's.  (Bob is not a big Eat 'n Park fan.)  The boys ordered their normal (grilled cheese and fries for SJ and two pizzas for Bob).  The boys chatted away with Jeffrey while I got a chance to catch up with Hunter.  (He leaves for college this year...I am getting so old!)

After lunch, we said our goodbyes and went home to get ready for our vacation.  The boys enjoyed spending more time with their distant relatives.  I enjoyed the brief break that I got before I had to buckle down and start packing.
