Sometimes

Sometimes I have pretty busy days......but fun ones....today was one of those days! I dropped everyone at school and headed to the nursing home to visit with Granny Holt. She was dozing in her chair and I was able to fix her new flowers in the vase and place them on the dresser before waking her. Her new outfit she planned on wearing for her birthday party this Saturday is missing the top. She has been sad, she never even got to wear it. Seth and I ran to Peebles yesterday and bought a new top that will match the pants. I took it in this morning for her to look at and try on. She liked it and it fit, so her new (again) outfit is hanging in the closet waiting for party time. We talked until I had to be home to meet Sandy.

Sandy and the boys came to place an order for Chance's pictures. I rode and sat in the car playing with the boys while Sandy placed her order. We shopped and little and I so enjoyed her company!! Sandy is just one of my favorite people:) While in the Tractor Supply store (they have great play animals!) I took our purchases to the check out and Sandy went on to the car with the boys. The checkout lady went on and on about how cute the boys are ( certainly the truth!!)....then she asked if they were my grandsons:) I replied they could be (It would be a stretch, but Sandy is nearly 13 years younger than me), but instead they were my sweet nephews instead:) They left before lunch to grab lunch and go eat with Chad in the "gym"(I think the boys favorite place).

Chelsea arrived at the end of Sandy's visit and met us at the shoe store. I stayed with Chelsea and we shopped a little ($2.01) and then took socks to Caleb at the high school and Tylenol to Sarah. I really do not think my teens realize how much time it takes to do things like that.

Chelsea and I picked up burgers and met Scott at the house to eat lunch. Not sure when we have eaten with just Chelsea? It was nice. She talked about her spring break, which begin tomorrow! She and a dozen other people are going to Orlando to Disney. She is very excited. We went when she and Sarah were young and she went with some friend to help babysit, but this will be her first 'on her own" trip...lol...if you can call being with a dozen other people "on your own"? She spent the afternoon raiding her closet and trying on "summer" clothes. We went to Wal-Mart and bought a few things she needed (and school supplies for littles) and brought it all home.

Chelsea left as I left to pick up school kids! A big busy fun day....that began again at 3pm like most my days!

Homework is now being completed. Rosie just asked me what a "pollytickle party" is? I surmised she was reading Social Studies! We talked a few minutes about "political parties". I wish I could remember all the funny "words" my kids say....but I do try to write on my hand the really funny ones:)

Rain has moved in making our beautifully uncommonly wonderful weather kinda yucky. But it is still warm!! Just no outside playing today. I am not sure about other people, but my children have a very hard time NOT getting into the middle of puddles! I do not think it is unique to my house....but do think the high number of boys increases the puddle jumpin!

The picture above is from pajama day at the elementary school and totally unrelated to anything I talked about:)
