Don't go outside (on Evey's watch)

Great weekend for the Joneses!

Friday me and Adro hit the casino (didn't win anything again). Saturday morning I posted a bunch of my old toys on eBay wile Adro worked in the backyard. 

In the afternoon we all went and saw Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2. Me and the kids had already seen it. Adro and Judy joined us this time and they both LOVED it. I was glad because I recommended it to them.

I think Adrianne was most impressed. She liked it top to bottom.

Saturday night we just hung out, enjoyed the weather. My sister and Marina stopped by for a brief visit. Then Adro convinced me to go to sleep early with her and Boydee. We were zonked out instantly.

Sunday was quiet. Adro and kids went to church, I went and picked up some mulch for Judy. A little bit of backyard wiffle ball with the kids, then naps for everyone.

I got up and dinked around the house... cut up all the fruit Adrianne bought from her grocery shopping trip. Then I cooked a Mexican buffet style dinner.

A short walk for the family, then a longer walk for just me and Adro concluded the evening. (And that lousy Game 2 of the NBA Finals.)

Took off work early to take Evey to see Wonder Woman on Friday.

While it was great hanging with Evey, neither of us enjoyed the movie much. I'm surprised by all the positive reviews it's getting... it was barely mediocre in my book. Oh well, glad others are enjoying it.

For the first time ever, we left Evey in charge and asked her to watch Boyd for us while me and Adro went on a walk.

I know this made Evey nervous but we knew it would be fine... we walked  a little longer route than normal, just because it was nice outside. We walked until a little past dusk. 

When we walked up to the house, Boyd was looking out the window and gave us a big smile and wave. Evey, however, was not too happy.

She asked me "what happened?" and "what did you do?" I told her, "we went for a walk."

Apparently our walk was too long so Evey assumed we had been kidnapped. When Boyd spotted us, Evey had Adrianne's phone in hand and was about to call... Grandma.

We asked how this would help at all... Grandma was probably asleep anyway. And what would Evey say? "Grandma, Mom and Dad went for a walk... and they've been gone for FIFTEEN MINUTES!!!"

Adrianne asked a good question: Why not just call Dad's cell phone? 

Hm!

Well, we all survived. We'll see if Evey gets less nervous next time.
