Daylight savings, we lost an hour of sleep.We also got news that Bret’s grandmother, Maxine passed away (his dad’s mom). She lived to be 95. Tierney is slowly improving. I woke up and am a bit worried I am coming down with a cold so I am going to stay away from Alan and his family for a bit. We played at home and read the newspaper. We ran to Great Indoors to get a new light for the entry way and grab some lunch. When we got home the kiddos decided to go to Canada-that means everything goes in the play room. Dad hung the fan in the empty bedroom upstairs and patched and painted ceilings. So funny as he painted with high gloss instead of flat, including touch up paint along the walls. So he had to re-paint, reminds me I painted the kids room. It wasn’t funny but I am glad I am not the only one who painted with the wrong paint. The kids watched Curious George and I took a nap on the cozy carpet. The kids played outside in the backyard for a long time. They are loving playing with the rocks. Then the water came out, the kiddos were watering everything for us including the dirt. The dirt became mud and the kiddos couldn’t help but play in it. We had muddy kids-I had to get them naked by the backdoor and put them into the sink. We decided to get out and go to Castle Park. Justin rode his bike and Nicole took Justin’s Diego scooter. Nicole didn’t ride the scooter too long so we ended up carrying it, ugh. Nicole ws so excited to play in the sand-she spe nt most of her time playing there while I sat and watched. Dad and Justin played on the swings, the castle, and finally made it to the sand. It was hard getting the kids to leave the park. We got home and dad got a pizza for dinner. The kiddos and I played and cleaned up a bit. I couldn’t believe how much pizza Justin ate. The kids made drawings for their pre school. They are making plates out of them. They had fun drawing. We went upstairs and the kiddos were pretty hyper. We decided since the tiem change we should put them tp bed a little later. We read lots of books. I stayed in their room for a bit, so Nicole came and slept with me. I left shortly after because both kids snore. Bret is leaving to go to Arizona tomorrow for his granny Maxine’s viewing. Not sure if he can stay for the funeral due to work.
