Slow week in general but busy-ish weekend. Friday Beth and I had a date night (for a little while) and went to Tippy Creek Winery for a trivia night. We hadn't done it before so we weren't quite sure what to expect, but there was some guy there reading trivia questions and playing music, and tallying the scores in between. There were maybe 8 or 10 groups playing including us, and most of them had several people in them out on the town. But anyway, we only missed a couple of questions all evening, and by then end had a score that everyone there thought was really impressive. We came in first place and won ourselves a $10 gift card for Tippy Creek....Saturday was the Mall Derby, so the kids were all away most of the afternoon. Natalie even went, and invited a friend to go along with her. Missy's team wound up winning, and Alex's team came in second place....In the evening we took all the kids out to see "Captain Marvel," which we all really liked but I can see how some people might think she was too powerful. Trivial points though....This weekend I replaced the passenger side view mirror on the van, the one that had been smashed. It wasn't that hard once the door panel was off, but I did have to be a bit creative in fastening it to the door since the replacement mirror didn't want to tighten down. In the end I added a couple washers and it worked fine. The motor on the mirror adjustment device even works better than the old one did....
