What a nice everday Saturday we had today. The weather was perfect--sunny but cooler--and autumn has made its beautiful arrival around here. It was nice to have a weekend to just be home, and get some things done, and hang out together a bit.Some highlights:
- Woke up at 7:30; dozed and laid in bed until 9:00 (felt SO good!).
- Showered. Got Hayden set up with cereal and cartoons.
- Kennedy and I went to the Farmer's Market. Bought some brussels sprouts (on the stalk), pear gourds, honey sticks, fresh baguette, and Indian corn for decorating. Spent 20.00.
- Sewed Kennedy's patches on her Girl Scout vest.
- Enjoyed a great Greek salad for lunch.
- Dropped Kennedy off at Girl Scouts.
- Got groceries. Total=98.11....."Just a few things" is pretty expensive these days.
- Stopped at Scrap Scribble n Stick to get some papers/embellishments for this album, which I plan to start first thing Monday morning.
- Picked Kennedy up.
- Put groceries and dishes away.
- Helped Matt with cleaning out the garage (yep, that's a toilet you see in the photo).
- Played catch with the kids.....batting practice, too. Ruby is a great outfielder...when she decides to bring the ball back, that is.
- Made a big crockpot of chili to go with the fresh bread.
- Baked cookie brownies with Kennedy. So gooey and warm.
- Kids play, watch Veggie Tales.
- Watched a bit of the Michigan football game and a movie.
- A couple loads of laundry and dishes.
- Washed out sink. Watered flowers.
- Changed out the summer wreath to the fall one. Starting to get fall decorations out for decorating next week.
- Ready to put fresh sheets on the bed, get my jammies on, and settle in for a good Lifetime movie.
- I get all settled in for 5 minutes...the kids invade our room.....pretty soon, we're watching Disney channel and singing at the top of our lungs. Not exactly what I had in mind, but pretty typical for our house. :)
