It was another fun and busy weekend, so let’s get right to it…
Quintana’s Speakeasy
On Friday afternoon, Mariah and I slipped away for an afternoon cocktail at Quintana’s Speakeasy.
Tucked upstairs from Quintana’s Barber Shop, the speakeasy has all the atmosphere of stepping back in time, including a secret entrance (nope, you have to figure it out for yourself.)
I had the What Do Wine Know?, with house mulled wine, ginger syrup, lemon juice, and soda. I love mulled wine and this was a refreshing twist on it!
I can’t wait to go back and try more delicious drinks in this super intimate location!
Upward Basketball League
On Saturday morning, Jeffrey had his first game with his Lil Cowboys team as part of the Upward Sports basketball league.
From the announcement of each player, complete with a tunnel to run through…
…to the fun of the actual game…
Jeffrey loved every minute!
I’ve been really impressed with the Upward league’s focus not only on skills, but also sportsmanship and character building. It’s going to be a great season for the Lil Cowboys!
Children’s Museum of Cleveland
From there, it was off to a birthday party at the Children’s Museum of Cleveland.
The museum has really grown since it’s opening, adding new exhibits like Meadow (for little ones), Playlist, Theater, and Brick Works.
If you saw a group of crazed almost six-year-old boys tearing through the museum, that was our group!
Cavs
Jeffrey and I rounded out our Saturday with a Cavs game with the John Carroll Cleveland Alumni Chapter.
We had a reception in one of the new banquet rooms at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, complete with awesome views of downtown and delicious food.
And while we only made it until halftime (it was a long, busy day), we loved watching all the NBA action!
Catholic Schools Week
On Sunday, we kicked off Catholic Schools Week with a Mass and open house at Gesu Catholic School.
I can’t believe just last year, Jeffrey went to the open house as a prospective student and now he’s showing off his Kindergarten classroom and projects.
His teachers are just wonderful and I’ve been so happy with his progress this year! I also just love being part of such a warm, caring community.
So, that was the weekend. Lots of good time with my favorite kiddo (and a little mom break too!) How was your weekend?
