Long, Long, Long Weekend

This weekend has been very long. Spencer worked his clincal this weekend, just like every weekend. So I was trying to think of things I could do that were special because the kids are having a hard time missing daddy. Saturday, we went and picked out a card for their cousin Kinsley's first birthday and I let them sign it. Then we went to a UPS store and mailed it. I thought it would mean more if we actually took it some where to be mailed. Then we went to McDonald's. Now they don't get to go there very often so it was a special treat. We order from the dollar menu and it makes our money go further. They played up in the play equipment for an hour and they were nice and tired. To end the day even better we went to Fry's to rent a movie for a dollar. Well, when we started walking up to Fry's there was a guy who was fighting police. He was trying to get away, but he was out numbered and the cops won! So Connor thought that was cool to see cops take someone down. Then we went and rented Meet the Robinson's for them and Amazing Grace for us. The kids were sooooo happy to rent that. Its their favorite movie. Hopefully we will be able to buy it for them sometime. Amazing Grace was an amazing movie, that is another one I want to add to our collection of movies. Then today after church I was able to start my visiting teaching for the month. We spent an hour on just one sister, but it was worth it and it was nice to actually get out and visit with adults.

Isn't it great to have an adult conversation without the kids yelling for every ounce of attention?

Good thing it's over. It must have been a way long one...one that didn't have to be so long too.
