Anyway, I got up at normal time, got the kids ready, and out the door. Andrea texted saying she wasn't gonna walk, but that she was gonna go to the on post thrift store at 9am. Worked for me. So I showered and got pretty, and she texted a few minutes before 9am, saying her hubby was gonna come too. Um, yeah, Ryan, you're an AWESOME guy and all, but I don't wanna hang with you and your wife - ROFL! I let the two of them go together to the thrift store, and have some time together :)
What did I do? I loaded up in my truck, and drove to Sonic, and got a Diet Dr Pepper for Hilary and I. I dropped hers off at her work, since she was running late, and didn't have time to stop on the way there. I called Laurie to see if she wanted to go and shop with me, but she was still busy.....
So, I had a morning to myself. I drove over to Fallas Parades, and shopped for a whole hour. I got a new shower curtain, matching towels, matching rugs, and a new soap. It was gonna look SO pretty.
After Fallas, I went to Family Dollar and got Eme hair bands, and then to Dollar Tree, where I got some decorations for my table. I'd picked up a table runner at Fallas. After about 2 hours total of shopping, all by myself (which was nice, for a change), I headed back home.
I got the kids lunch, and then started in on my Bathroom Makeover. It was kinda fun. Wanna see the finished product? Here it is;
And here's my table runner, table, and new hutch. Did I already post pics of those???
Just ignore the blatant computer geekiness in the background... hehehe.So I worked on getting rooms in the house clean for the rest of the afternoon, as well as some computer work done. At 2pm, Jake was done with school, and he and Jimmy and I headed to the park to try out the new kites that I'd bought them at the Dollar Tree. They were pretty excited.
The kites worked ok for a Dollar kite. But you could tell they were only a Dollar. They kept crashing. But it was kinda fun.
We headed back home, and at 3:30pm, headed to the bus stop. We got Joe and Eme, and Cassi and William, and headed for the park. The girls started to trickle down to the park after that.
Hilary and Laurie and Veronica and I and Kari were there. We had fun laughing and chatting and eating Peanut Butter crackers, courtesy of Laurie. Jake went to the pool to play until I needed him to babysit.
We left the park right before 5pm. I went home and got my kids dinner. Hilary headed to the pool for her daughter for swim team practice. We started chores, and Joe on his homework, and such. At 5:30, Jake came home, and I had Tom get ready for Football. I drove him out to his practice at 6pm, leaving Jake in charge.
I swung by the pool after dropping off Tom, and saw the girls for a few minutes, then headed back home. I got the little boys all ready for bed, and teeth brushed, and such. At 7:50, I headed back to the field. Jake put the little boys the rest of the way in bed.
I got home, and came back home. I left Jake and Eme and Tom watching a movie together on the couch, and I headed out to my Primary Presidency meeting. It was at Lauries house. Now, imagine this. Me and Laurie and Hilary and Andrea. All in the same room. Trying to be serious and have a meeting. Yeah, it's a struggle to stay on topic - ROFL! We started at 8:30, and ended at 10:30. LOL! We got everything covered that we were supposed to, though. And even had a nice spiritual thought!
So after the meeting, I stayed and chatted longer with Laurie. At 11pm, we started making the invites to the April Girls party. Those have been SO much fun. This one's at Laurie's house, and is a "Tacky Party". We're supposed to wear something that's either tacky or that clashes. And bring a main dish to share, and an Under $3 gift for the exchange. SO looking forward to it. Next Thursday, I think is the date :) WOohoo!
I left Lauries house at 12:30pm, and came back home, checked some emails, played on facebook for only a few minutes, I swear.... and here I am. Finally done blogging. It's now 1:35am, and I need to design something. Unfortunately, my fingers are feeling like they have a mind of their own. Um, not such a good sign. AND, my bed is covered with laundry. I think I'll just shove it to Captain America's side. He's not here anyway, right?

I can picture this used on some vacation photos that I sometimes take of poor unsuspecting people that are wearing sandals, black socks, plaid shorts and Hawaiian shirts! LOL No offense meant to anyone reading this who is guilty of the above! :0) Thanks for the great WA!
I have lots of photos in need of this word art. I love capturing shots of what a five year old puts together on their own!
Thank you for freebies. Link on your post was added to Lori's freebie list
The bathroom makeover looks great! I have a table runner just like your new one, same colour and everything.
Thanks for the WA :o)
