I've got a week's worth of blogging to do so here it goes:
- Monday- picked my mom up from the airport during snow storm. Stopped at mall in Ann Arbor so I could get the boys Santa picture taken. $15.00 dollars later I have a picture of Jake and no picture of Ty because he was scared of Santa. He will wonder why I have no pics of him when he gets older.
- Tuesday- Happy Birthday to me. My sister and nephews came over for the day. We just hung out and read mags. I got a bookshelf from my mom, this with some birthday money, a watch, hat and mittens from David and this from my sister. My family made me a wonderful dinner with turkey, stuffing, squash, potatoes and chocolate trifle for desert. I asked for turkey so I could made turkey sandwiches with the leftovers. Yum.
- Wednesday- I watched Brock today. He has a little personality now!
After David got home from work, my mom and I ran around town getting stuff for Ty's birthday party. Then David and I went to the bar to meet up with some friends. We had a great time catching up with everybody.
- Thursday- Happy Thanksgiving! I really didn't drink that much, but I had a mild hangover today. I couldn't move from the couch until about noon. Then we went to David's mom and dads. I brought my mom with me. I napped some more over there and hung out. We had 12 people for dinner. It was a lot of fun and good food. I am most thankful this year for healthy kids.
- Friday- I spent all day getting our basement ready for Ty's party. My mom got sick after Thanksgiving dinner. This time it wasn't the pizza. Must be something in our house. She was on the couch all day today. I wish I would have taken before and after pictures of our basement. It is amazing how fast we changed the whole look. I call it the poor man's finished basement. David painted the gray cement walls white, my mom painted trucks on one wall, we bought a carpet remnant, and I hid all our junk behind curtains (tablecloths). It cost about $350 all together, but the kids have a whole new play area.
- Saturday- Ty's party was today. I'm going to do a seperate post for his party because there are quite a few pictures. After the party, David and I had our 10 year class reunion at Hunt Club. There was only about 10 people there, but it was nice to see the friends we haven't seen in awhile.
- Sunday- We meant Matt and Danielle at Granny D's to get our Christmas tree. We went for a tractor wagon ride and got dropped off in a field of trees. It reminds me of Chevy Chase Christmas vacation. We were trudging through the cold to find the perfect tree. Then Matt and David cut them down and the tractor picked us back up. It has been a tradition for about five years now.
