Parents-Day 3

I took Cameron to school while Dad watched Wheel of Fortune and Mom slept.  Dad asked my Mom if she wanted to get up and walk back from school again but she wasn't interested.  She was exhausted and wanted to sleep more.

We packed for Thailand, had some lunch, watched my ayi clean for awhile, and then headed to Cameron's school for the walkathon. The entire school participated to raise money for a couple of different charities. They ran/walked for 30 minutes. Cameron did awesome. He made it 23 laps. His face was so red when he was done.

Cameron and Rebecca having a nice chat.

Grandpa wishing Cameron good luck.

Waiting for the starting gun to go off.

Running like a champ.

Cameron and his teacher, Mr. Singer.

Two Cameron's...Yikes.

We jumped in the van and ran home quickly. Cameron changed his sweaty clothes, grabbed a treat, and a drink. Back in the van. We dropped Cameron off at Decathlon to stay with Carrasco's. They were there for Alejandro's roller blading class. At 4:30 Ileana dropped Cameron and Alfredo off at school for club soccer practice.

Mom, Dad, and I went to Todd's work for a tour. We had to put on gloves, steel toed shoes, orange vest, and hard hats. We were looking sweet. It was pretty cool to see what Todd has been working on up close. The factories are awesome.

Trying to get a job on a construction site.

After our tour we went to watch soccer. There was only 5 kids there. It was actually good because the coach was able to work with each kid. By the time soccer was over it was getting a little chilly. I'm glad I had a sweatshirt with me.

Dribbling the ball.

Practicing his skills.

We went to Jacky's 2 for dinner. It was pretty disappointing. Mom wanted Jameson chicken but when it came out it had the sauce on it which it wasn't suppose to. When it came back mom still wasn't impressed. We figured out she was talking about Wai Ha's Jameson chicken we think. I had chicken fajitas and they were not near as good as a week ago from the other Jacky's that I had. Oh well.

Back home. All 3 of the boys got haircuts. This was a very annoying chore. My parents brought me new clippers. I started on Cameron's head and it was ripping his hair out. Dad looked at the new clippers and they were broken. He worked on them while I used the other clippers. Dad fixed them and I cut his hair next. But before I cut his hair he put on the cape so hair wouldn't get on him. We noticed there was wet, sticky stuff in several places on the cape. We cleaned that up. I was irritated with the new clipper set by this point. Got Dads hair cut and went to do Todd's. Clippers didn't work again. I made 3 swipes then it decided to break again. I had to use the other clippers which were not the same length. What a nightmare. I finally got all hair cuts finished, cleaned up, and clippers put away. Glad to have that project done.

Cameron and Mom played a couple different games and then we all watched Myth-busters. Then it was off to bed.
