welcome october. i was a little impatient waiting for your arrival. i've already been burning fall scented oils (the leaves scent is filling the house right now) and my halloween decorations are out in all their glory. i added a new trick or treat banner and subway art this year. everything else is the same.
last night (well 4:30) darric and i went to bj's for dinner with all of the other old folk. yes, we were probably the youngest ones in there. haha. we got cold stone for dessert, my choice. billy got dropped off at about 9:00 for a sleepover. the boys were excited to see each other, but it didn't take them too long to fall asleep.
our real estate gal, eleen, sends emails with new listings and one came through tonight that i was very excited about. i think darric was too when he saw the covered patio and built in bbq. of course, he couldn't sleep very well thinking about what the house payment would be.
we were all up by 6:30 on saturday (except kenzie). darric took the boys out towards the lake for a hike. it looked like it was going to rain, but then it cleared up. they were back by about 9:30 and a little bit later, madi and i went to babies r us to meet jodie, her kids and grandma to get tauni's gift (a swing and an outfit. quincy came with us and we went over to hallmark for wrapping paper. then, DI was our next stop. we were looking for a dress for madi for a party she was invited to. she decided on one that looked like it belonged to a little old lady. i found 2 little white vases for 50 cents each too.
it was probably only 11:30 and the party didn't start until 2:00, but i didn't want to drive all the way home. so we got starbucks and went to jen's. wrapped the present and then helped jen get ready for the party. i left at 3:00 and madi stayed because she was going to jodie's for a sleepover with grace too.
i was on my way to meet eleen at the other house on arpeggio. she text me that she was there early. i still had a good 15-20 minutes before i would be there. she waited for me. the house was nice. the back yard was beautiful, the rooms felt small, there were 4 bedrooms, a den and 3 bathrooms. the price was too high for darric and he doesn't want to move the kids to different schools. so i guess we're staying where we're at. boring!!
sunday... me, max, kenzie and kobe went to pick up madi from jodie's house. i warned max several times that we weren't staying to play. and surprisingly, he listened when i told him we were leaving. we picked up sonic drinks and donuts on our way home and saw a community yard sale we made our way back to once we ate our donuts and dropped the boys off.
the yard sale was a dud at 11:00 so we went over to bath and body works and spent our money there (i was out of my carried away lotion and it's the only one i like right now) we ran over to target next to pick something out for piper. jodie had called to say they were having dinner for her birhday tomorrow night.
darric and max went to albertsons to get stuff to bbq for lunch and then we just hung out the rest of the afternoon.
