We didn't have school on Monday - due to a "Snow Make-Up Day" which is scheduled just-in-case. This was how the day rolled:
SLEEP IN! for everyone - since the clocks all jumped forward, it made us look really lazy.
Kids enjoyed video games for the morning and mommy enjoyed a slacker start for the day.
Afternoon - we saw TANGLED at the dollar theatre. Why do I think that Danny can do movies? He loves them - but about 1/2 way through, he decided to put his face up between the chairs in front of us (I don't think the boy and girl teenagers really appreciated that little face in the middle of their date).
Boys were fighting or crying the whole way home - an obvious sign that there's been a lack of physical activity for the day - so I stopped at a park. What rain? It's light..... you'll be fine. (they were)
Noticed it was windy and I ran home to get the boys CHEAPO kites that we bought in Mexico. Hunter asked if we could get a kite from somewhere besides Mexico as these were clearly not working. They were ok - but VERY easy to create a massive tangled GLOB of string. It was still fun.
Evening time - I decided to make dinner at 7 - all those lousy treats at the movie had kept us full till then. I made Orange Chicken with veggies and rice and I was quite proud of my awesome meal... I really despise dinner time every night. Hunter even liked it and Cole, well, he cried and cried and I decided he could go hungry. I'm tired of that game. I'm grateful for Shayne and his support in this matter.
It was nice to not have to be anywhere or do anything in particular and I thought it was a great day. It ended with me reading more Percy Jackson to Hunter - we're almost to the end of the final book!! And Shayne helped Cole fight Bowser on the Wii. Whew.... now back to the routine.
