Date Night

J and I have really been enjoying the kids new youth group. They go every other Friday night. They have music, then a study, then the last two times have went swimming. They are LOVING it!!! J and I are taking advantage by going out together. Do you know how long it has been since we have been on dates, we almost don't know what to do with ourselves. Last night we went and got an ice cream and went to a local park on the water. We walked around for a bit and were ready to go..... oh, that only took 45 minutes what are we going to do with the rest of the time????? We decided to go to the dollar store that was in the area. We hadn't been to one in months. We walked around and ended up purchasing two drinks and a pack of bagels, did you know they sold bread now, in date bread at that. We then were trying to kill more time so we were headed to another park when B called and told us we didn't have to pick them up till 10:00. WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO NOW???? J was tired so I decided to take him home and I would just go to Wal-Mart and do my weekly shopping. On the way home he decided he wanted to go. That is great, except now I am not going home and have to rack my brain to figure out what is on the refrigerator list that we are out of..... hmmm. We set in the parking lot for a bit so I could make up the weekly menu and picture the list of necessary items. We still got to the kids early. I am so use to shopping as fast as I can that I don't know how to take it slow in Wally World. When we arrived of course the kids were not ready to leave so we chatted with the other adults for awhile. In that time I was nominated to have next youth group at my house...yippee!





Today we are just chilling out at the house. B is upset that AT&T had the nerve to send her a text message at 9:00 am on a Saturday morning waking her up! The consequences we have for getting our own cell, tough life huh! We are going to work on the yard today and just chill out. J had to work this morning so we are waiting for him to get home. Hope everyone had a great weekend.

*****Just a note that the picture above is not of the ice cream we got, not even close. I am enjoying adding pictures to this blog so I found a yummy ice cream.********

Movie Day

The kids really enjoyed watching this movie today. We picked up some boys and we all went and checked it out. It was WONDERFUL!!!! I think we are going to read the book to see what differences there are between the book and the movie. After the movie we went to Pet Smart for B to spend her gift card. She won a gift card at a dog show she participated in and finally got to spend it. She was a great shopper. She got a steel comb for all of Reeses mats, an adorable dog bed, and a super cute toy. The best part of it was I only had to pay 5.00 for all of it... .YIPPEE!!!!

We got B's new science book in the mail today. This thing is INTENSE, HUGE, and Intimidating. When I was reading the teacher part it tells you this book is hard but is for the college bound student. It also says that is normal for the average student to only get a C in this book, as it is HARD. Well we will just hope for the best and I know that B will be getting A's!!!!

I have been working on our school stuff for next year. We can't wait to start all the new books we have. Our first day will be June 23. It will be a little different this year as B will be doing a lot more this year on her own... boo hoo. We are using a lot of new stuff this year so it will be exciting.
