Day 291

The beginning of a new week is here!  With that, I am hoping the beginning of a new attitude for my kids as well! OY! What a week last week!  So happy that we get new weeks to try and start over as parents AND hopefully children.

Today was good, but different.  We went to church, my kids in my Sunday School class were very good and I had a great time teaching them and singing.

We got home and got the news that my parents BOTH have the flu.  We were supposed to visit my great-aunt at my grandma's old house today.  So we DID end up going, but without my parents.  We had a nice time chatting.  My great-aunt is my grandma's last living sister and she is 94.  It was really nice being with her, giving her presents, having all of the little kids and big kids sing to her, and share memories.  My brother, sister-in-law, and niece were there as well.

After the little birthday party, we went to a restaurant called Tony Roma's.  When I was younger and after my grandfather passed away, for many many years we would go out to eat dinner on Sundays with my grandma.  That particular restaurant was one of her favorites.  It STILL doesn't disappoint...man is the food good there!  It made me very nostalgic, though, to go back in time and be there with my parents and brother and grandma.  Those were some good times!

After dinner, we drove back home and got the kids ready for bed.  David is heading out in the morning for Colorado for the week, so it is just me versus them for a while lol.  Hope everyone had a good day today!  It is going to be an interesting week flying solo with the kids, but hoping that happy memories can me made along the way.
