This morning the kids and I hung out around home until around 10:00 am. They decided they wanted to go roller skating today. I gave them the choice of doing that or going to Union Station to see the Disney Train Tour, but they wanted to go roller skating, so that was the plan for the afternoon.
This morning we went to Wal-mart to get a new toaster. Of course that's not all we bought. I got them each another new shirt and Michaela got a skort. I got a few exercise things, too. I got an exercise DVD, had weights with straps and pedometer. Now, I need to make myself use them.
After we left Wal-mart we went to Culver's for lunch. It was a nice lunch together. There were a lot of army soldiers there. There always seems to be army soldiers at Culver's when we go there.
We got to the skating rink around 2:00 pm. I let them skate until almost 4:00 pm. I sat and read my book while they skated. It was nice to be able to read some. The kids enjoyed themselves, too. I think this is the first time they actually chose what we did this summer. I mean we've all had fun, but today they had fun totally on their own account.
Tonight we all went to Trailhead for supper. We always love going there. We got there before the rush, too so we did not have to wait. There was a brand new baby there that was so tiny. It reminded me of Michaela when she was a baby. Gosh, it all goes way too fast.
Now, Michael is up at the duplex. He should be finished with it this weekend. Thank goodness. It's taken way too long. The kids and I are having a quiet evening. They have been bickering so much that I'm making them stay apart. Michaela is in her room. Caleb is in the living room and I'm in my room. I think we all need some alone time at this point. We've had so much together time this summer.
