It's been a few weeks so thought I would sit down and do some typing. Needed a mental health break...(the boys are currently squabbling). Guess it's a case of the Mondays. Been a hectic few weeks. Kirk has been working lots of hours. Usually summer isn't so busy but for some reason it has been crazy busy for him at work. Last weekend he had gotten called out on storm so I packed us all up and we went with him. (We kinda like the guy and will take what we can get!). Turned out to work really well for us. Stayed at a Hilton Garden Inn--which I had never been at before. I give it two thumbs up. Really nice pool and we enjoyed ourselves.
Saturday Abby and I went to the Annual American Girl seconds sale in Middleton, WI. There is a children's museum there that gets all the returns and seconds from American Girl and sells them all at a fat discount and in turn they reap a hefty profit. They actually sell tickets to this thing thru ticketmaster! We went with my friend Christy and her two girls and made a weekend of it. Again--stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn . (I am plugging the Hilton so much they are gonna have to comp me next time I am in!). Bought lots of stuff. My arms are still hurting from lugging all that stuff around! Abby scored 2 new dolls and I got lots of Christmas shopping done so it was a successful trip.
What else? My son (Kyle) spent some time w/Grandma this weekend and came home looking like a surfer dude. He has been wanting highlights in his hair and Grandma gave him some this weekend. He now has a new middle school look. Can't believe the kid is entering 6th grade. I am getting old. I went to a wedding yesterday for Zac (My good friend Missy's kid) and as I was sitting at my table with my hubby, my BFF Jess and her hubby, I realized something. The music was too loud and the 20 somethings gyrating on the dance floor repulsed me, and somehow we had become "the old people" attending this event. We even left kinda early like the old folks always do. When did that happen? In as little as 7 or 8 years I could be "a mother of the groom".(gosh--I HOPE NOT!) Where does the time go? I did learn one thing--Midge is a dancing fool! My brother is getting married in about 8 weeks and I am sure she will be a hit there as well. She was a trip!
Well, I guess I am gonna close this session of my ramblings. The boys have now stopped squabbling and there are dishes to do. Until the next squabble....LOL
