Normally, I get up and go to work early on Saturday mornings...while the boys either sleep in or get up and lazily watch cartoons, while The Chief sleeps in. It started out that way...I left for work at 7:40, but everyone was awake and getting ready to go to a friend's baptism. I got to work, and found out my 8:00 client cancelled. My 9 and 11 had already cancelled earlier in the work, so I ask the receptionist if she would call my 10:00 client and move her to 11, which she did, and then I ran home and joined my family for the baptism, so that was a really nice, pleasant surprise. Then went back into work from 10:30-1:00 and got a lot of stuff done there, so I feel completely caught up and organized! Yeah! Meanwhile, the Chief took Noah and Seth to Noah's bball game, and McKay stayed with friends for brunch following the baptism. We all met up at 1:30, and went for lunch, where we all ate too much. Then we did a number of errands. You know the kind...gas station, Costco (where we spent WAY TOO MUCH $), the library, dollar store, grocery store (crowded beyond belief with all the people buying for the Super Bowl), and then to Office Max, and finally to Hobby Lobby. We picked up a movie at RedBox, and now the boys and the Chief are doing that, and I thought I would give you an update of how we spent our day! I had to do something while my Ipod is synching. I realize I'm not being so creative today!
One thing funny that happened...after we left Costco, we drove past the Chevy dealership, and there were a number of Camaro's there in the parking lot. As the Chief LOVES, LOVES, LOVES this car, I just had to say, "Why don't you pull in and have a look?" I said this as we had just gone by, but he whipped around, and pulled in, while we all laughed. I made him promise to not get out. I didn't want some poor salesman to come out in the cold to try to sell him a car. See, The Chief is going to get a Camaro...but he has to wait til he's 50. That's our deal. Plus, he has to save a bunch of money for it! Anyhow, he loved being 10 feet away from those cars. I thought he would hyperventilate from his excitement. It was fun!
We really had a wonderful day all together. I'm glad we're at this place with our family.
