SLEEPOVER WEEKEND AT NANA's

I told the kids that I would have a sleepover with them on the weekend after school was out.

Austin, Ashlynne, Andrew...all of them bugged their mom about what time I got off from work, when I was going to pick them up, what were we going to do 'til she got there...all of the 20 questions that come from waiting.

I finally got there and they were all playing and I had to round them up. What the heck--I thought they were waiting for me. So we got pizza, rented a movie--Tangled-- and all but Austin fell asleep before 8:30 p.m. Now that's my idea of a sleepover. None of this staying awake all night. Then Austin fell asleep at 9:15. Wow! Could it have been any better than that?


The next morning they got to eat what they wanted--Pickles, Bagels, Rootbeer, Toast, Potato Chips...whatever they could find, they ate (oh my stomach hurts just thinking about it). I think one of them actually asked for Milk--oh yeah...Andrew!

Then it was off to the School playground to let them run free, exhaust them, played with the neighbor kids, played basketball, and let mom and dad take them home completely worn out.


Then the phone call. Mom had somehow hurt her back and could not walk, RJ had a meeing he had to go to, so I packed up all three kids, took them and Kassie and headed for West Bountiful to see a chiropractor that would see her at his home.

After the return home, we had to wait for RJ to finish with his meeting. By the time they left it was 3:00 in the afternoon. I hadn't had a shower, I got nothing accomplished and I just couldn't get myself in the groove to work on the house.
Afterall, according to Scarlett O'Hara, " Tomorrow is another day."

I took a shower around 5:00, put on my pajamas and popped in a movie and that was how I spent my Friday and Saturday!!!
