weekend

Sat. we went to the matinee of Horton Hears A Who, took pics with the visiting Flat Stacie from California by the Girl Scout Mural in Chillicothe, bought tap shoes for Katie's dance class, went to Wal-Mart, & ate @ Applebee's. I had the brilliant idea to wash all the sheets & blankets before we left, our 2 loads of flannel sheets usually need 2 runs thru the dryer to get dry, so was still drying sheets after we got home about 8:30, but we did all eventually get to bed. (I have one 'good' set of sheets for each bed, then the backup sheets that are about toast, so usually put the good sheets back on...it's my system.)
Easter I put together Katie's requested 15 clue hunt to find the big chocolate bunny. We went out to Grandpa Lije's for supper, where Katie visited the baby goats, baby calves, chickens, & the puppies. Kevin & Kate went for a ride to check cows, I laid Kevin's crutches on top of the ATV while they were gone, because I figured they'd bounce out the back of the truck. I wasn't thinking about the overgrown Great Pyranese puppies, when they got back, Katie ran in the house & said "Way to go, MOM, one of the puppies ate Dad's crutch!"
They'd chewed on the hand piece & gouged it good, & chewed a piece off the arm rest thing that Lije found. Lije electrical taped it back together. I'm sure this episode only makes Kevin love me more....
This week have a Band Boosters meeting, trip to Kevin's surgeon, Katie's dentist, KJ track meet, Katie class trip to JEff City, & get the cookie $ turned in. 6 girls have turned theirs in so far (out of 15). Katie just has one more delivery & I have to figure up what the extra cookies cost.
