September 27, 2008

I spent most of the day messing around with the pictures I took from last weekend when we went to the balloon glow and balloon race. I did not finish them, though. I'll work on them some more maybe tomorrow. I got a few good shots, I think.

I also did some house hold things. I, of course, got started on the laundry and managed to get about 1/2 of it done. And, I cleaned the kitchen really well. The floor really needed some attention. I'm glad that's done. It had been a while since I cleaned it that good.

Michael helped his dad with some dirt they had brought in today. Then, he came home and did some stuff around the house.

I went to pick Michaela up from Anikca's around 2:00 pm. She was the last one there. They both looked really tired. Michaela came home and laid around on her bed most of the rest of the afternoon.

This evening we went to Hatfield's and McCoy's for supper. Michael wanted some fried fish and the only way he's going to get it is to go out to eat.

We wandered around two Halloween stores after we ate. I think Caleb has decided he wants to be a clone trooper from Star Wars Clone Wars. Michael is not thrilled as he hates things like Star Wars. Oh well, he'll have to get over it. Michaela has decided she wants to be a goth girl. Which will be easy and we can buy some of that as regular clothes i.e. the black skirt and tights. So, it'll be much more cost effective.

I don't know if Michael and I are going to dress up this year or not. Church is doing Trunk or Treat on the 29th and they usually encourage the adults to dress up, too. We also decorate our "trunk." Michael loves that part of it. He likes dressing up the van.

Before we came home we did our weekly Wal-mart shopping. Once we got home, Michaela took a shower and the kids went to bed. Michael and I turned off the television and the computers and just concentrated on each other for the evening. It was really nice.
