Day 143: Up and alert by 9:30 ish perfect way to start the morning... I head into the kitchen and Heather is already working on getting things ready for dinner... you would think breakfast would be the first order of the day but apparently not. I finally got took over control of the stove and made us some food. Afterwards there was some more puttering about in the kitchen... I made pizza crust and dough... baked our pizza crust with plans to make dinner come together easier while we were out tonight... and put the boys pizza dough in a snap lock container and put it in the fridge so it would raise slowly. When it was time to pack up, I put some things in the cooler, Heather put some things in the cooler and the boy scurried around the house trying to gather up the things he needed to take. In the rush out the door and loading the bike, Lawson forgot to pack his bag with his helmet and life jacket and swim suit and change of clothes... well he packed it but didn't put it in the car. And we should have done a second look in the fridge... we also forgot the dough raising in the container and the blue-cheese dip. We got on the road and headed over to Lawson's friends from hockey. Make it there on time but missing stuff. Passed their mom on the way back into town, she was going shopping, lol... guess we didn't need to be in so much of a rush. Cell phones... we send he a message to pick up blue cheese dressing, not home made but it will do in a pinch (we hadn't figured out we forgot the dough yet). We unpack in the kitchen when she gets back and then notice the dough issue, flat breads? Na... got flour? maybe yeast perhaps (there is a bread marker down in the far corner, odds were good)... Check and check... ok we will make some more. I toss the stuff in a bowl and make another batch of dough and we are good to go, I was going to have the kids make their own pizza but time was no longer on our side with the dough issue. Heather manned the hot oil and took care of the wings, toss the casserole in the oven and I made 4 pizzas, 1 for the adults and another 3 personal pizzas for the kids from the dough that was just made. Everything finished at about the same time... we ate on the patio, it was actually nice outside for a change. Manga manga... Everything except for the kids pizzas were Keto friendly so at the point we couldn't eat anymore, we calculated the damage... ya, you can have another dozen wings and another slice of pizza if you want before the cake comes... there were no takers, I guess we aren't going hungry on Keto. Heather frosted the cake and brought it out. We sang Happy Birthday to the kids Mom and finished off the better part of the cake, the children loved it and were concerned where the left overs were going. LOL In the fridge. The kids went swimming for a bit more before building a fire and roasting some marshmallows, pre, during, and post mosquito hour. Now the mosquitoes drained enough blood from the kids they finally passed out or it was just that late... we packed it in and got home by midnightish. Guess what we did next. Yes they went to sleep... I scavenged the dough that had exploded out of the container in the fridge and made it into a cheesy bun for Lawson to enjoy the next day... then I wen to sleep.

LOL... now he knows how the other kids at hockey feel when they are shooting pucks on goal when he's in the net.
