Day 53

Evenin Y'all

Well today was a fun day of falootin it around the shopping centers of Texas.  This weekend is tax-free weekend for most back to school and clothes and so we had fun shopping for those things, but there were some must buys for our home as well.

We started off the morning splitting up the kids and the parents so David took Connor for the day and I took Joel....no offense to my little 3 year old, but I was mighty glad I had Joel today.  David had fun with Connor though and they even went to the library and rented a Baby Einstein we actually DON'T own to watch.  Joel and I headed off to a mall nearby with some stores I adore!  We had a blast walking through the stores and bought some hardware for the laundry room at one store and then bought some knick knacks for the house at another store!

We came home and I unpacked and put up some more decorations throughout the house and brought out the knick knacks and put them around the house...our house is becoming a home in some parts and I am so thankful for that.  It makes my heart so happy to look around the house and finally see US around this place!

Tonight I made dinner for us.  Ribs, corn, baked beans and David and the boys created popsicles with our Zoku popsicle maker!  I took off after that and went to the store to buy some food for the week.  I actually made a menu for the week!  I am so thankful to be getting back into a cooking routine now that I have 95 percent of the kitchen unpacked!  Tomorrow we are having friends from church come over and we are so looking forward to a fun dinner and visit together!

Well, as I sit here looking around the house I see my doggie sleeping at my feet with her feet in the air and my feet giving her a belly rub.  She is so cute.  My female cat is curled up asleep on the rug in the family room and my male cat is roaming the kitchen, probably hoping for one last bite of something before bed.  All is quiet and I am so thankful for this home.  Time for bed!
