Just Mom and Me

After Kate's swim competition was over, I needed to get back home to take are of some responsibilities there.  Josh wanted to stay to finish up a poker table that he and his dad were building (I'll post pictures of that later...it turned out GREAT).  Anyway, I gave the kids the option of staying with dad or coming home with me.  Kate wanted to come with me and Jack decided to stay.  He wanted to finishing painting a birdhouse that grandpa made for him.  On Sunday, Kate and I did our hair all fancy and painted our nails.  Then we went and saw Marley and Me.  I kind of regretted that because it had a lot more adult content than I was expecting!!!  She said that a lot of other kids had seen it and loved it, so I didn't see the harm!  Luckily for me, there were no questions I needed to answer afterwards.  We both cried into tissues and she said she really liked the movie.  She now wants to read the book.  After that I treated her to some custard from Culvers and then we did a little shopping.  It was a great day.  We definitely need to do more of those...

Here's us getting pretty...which really isn't a pretty process! LOL


The finished product!

You guys look great! Sounds like a fun day. I think I'll have to rent that movie if it's that sad! Good to know.
