Quiet Day

Just a quiet Sunday, although we did get to see lots of people. Started by running a couple of errands and then stopping by Sonic for breakfast. We were on our way to Andy and Nikki's so we got them some breakfast also. While we were there Mum called and wanted to know if we were home and of course we weren't. She had a letter for me so they just dropped it by the apartment.

Kaleigh and I went out to talk to them and get the letter. It was the Disney reservations for Andy and Nikki so I'm sure Dan's and mine with be there this week.

As we were pulling out of the apartment Dan called Chris to find out about going to the gun show. Chris was just crossing 192 at Hickory Tree so Dan told him we would see him at home and talk then. They were out of the house in just a few minutes to head to the Florida Fair Grounds, or at least I think that is where the gun show was.

I did some work around the house and updated the software on Dan's new GPS. Later I noticed that is wasn't acquiring the satellites and I thought something was wrong but after much research found that updating the software can cause acquiring the satellites to take a long time. I had put some pictures on the GPS and done some other things and when it didn't seem to work I took everything off and went back to original stuff. Now I can put it all back on.

When Chris was leaving I asked him to drop a sharpening bit off at Grampa's, so headed over there and had a visit with them.

Didn't do much the rest of the afternoon. There were no Olympics on and the race was last night. So I have been reading again and that is what I did.

Back to work again tomorrow for both Dan and I although I really can't call watching Riley and Kaleigh work. For this semester it is three days a week, M - W - F. So I have two days off, no excuse for not getting stuff done, but I'm sure I will find one.

Tired!

Riley was a very early morning boy today, he was up at 0530 but I put him down for a little nap at about 0630. He was just yawning and rubbing his eyes and he went right to sleep. Kaleigh got up at about 0700, she slept through from about 1030 last night.

After everyone was fed and dressed we took a ride down to the lake front to go for a walk. It was a pretty nice day and we ran into GG and Jagee while we were walking. Check out GG blog she has a very nice picture of the kids. Kaleigh started getting a bit fussy towards the end of our walk so got to be carried for the rest of the way. She really likes to face forward so she can see all that is going on.



We got home and did some playing and at about 1015 or so Riley was ready for his nap and he went right down. Kaleigh then spent a long time on the floor just kicking away having a good time and no one was stepping on her. She finally went down for her nap at about 1115.


Andy and Nikki arrived while Dan was off retrieving his little step ladder that he forgot at a job yesterday. He was pretty luck because it was only in Remington so he was back in no time. Both the kids woke up at about the same time. Got all changed to go in the pool and have a good time. Riley was happy for a while but then he didn't want to be in the pool anymore.



Tried another nap because he was still acting tired but that was a no go. So put him in his chair so he could eat lunch. I also made lunch for all of us, it was paninis again and they were very good. We sat around talking for awhile and then it was time for them to head home. Both the kids were pretty tired and they just weren't going to nap here. So got everything packed up and off they went.

Dan and I spent the rest of the afternoon watching the Olympics. Not much else going on.

Guess Who Spent the Night?

I thought I would be able to escape the rain today but every time I had to get out of the car it was raining, not a lot but just enough to get damp. Started by going to Wal-Mart and then off to Weight Watchers, I was up .6 lbs but I expected that no exercise this week with all the rain.

I went to Publix in Hunters Creek that way I can take the turnpike all the was to Kissimmee Park Road going home. Ended up forgetting a few things because the store is set up so differently from what I'm use to.

Spent the afternoon straightening up the house because we were having overnight guests and everything has to be put away. Didn't work very well today because as soon as Riley got in the house he made a beeline for my chair and everything that was on the end table was soon on the floor, but nothing was broken so all is well.

Guess by now you have figured out who spent the night. We all had dinner, it was paninis and they were very good. Kaleigh went down for her early evening nap and we spent the rest of the time before Riley went to bed playing. Where does that energy come from?

He has decided he really likes his sunglasses and wore them for quite a while.


Here is Kaleigh just before I picked her up and rocked her to sleep.



Riley also likes to put toys into cases and take them out.


We had a very nice evening but were definitely ready for Riley to go to bed, which he did at about 2000. Now I'm waiting for Kaleigh to wake up for a bottle and then she should go down for the night.

We're Going to Disney

I had a pretty busy morning. Went over to Tammy's to do some computer work with ringtones and then she decides to just buy them off the phone. Part of the problems was we couldn't get the bluetooth to work on her laptop.

Got one of my big things done today, our reservations for our trip to Disney in December. Can't wait to go, we will be staying at Port Orleans - Riverside this is one of our favorite resorts. When I was making the reservations nothing came up for the first weekend I was asking about so I asked the castmember to check for Pop Century and there was nothing there. She types away a bit more and says something came up at the Yacht and Beach so I asked what the rate was? Can you believe it was $5400.00 for four night. I told her that was a bit out of my price range could we look for something else? Luckily she found something for us, even if it was for the next weekend.

I looked at some more of Tammy's pictures from their trip to South Dakota, she has some gorgeous shots. And Kim did you really like that blue barn?

Dan was home early today only had 3 jobs and one he couldn't do. I did some more work on digital layouts. Trying to get as many done as I can because the sale on 12 x 12 prints is only until Saturday.

Still Raining

As you can see it is still raining, not sure when it will stop.

We Survived

Well another storm has come and gone, although it isn't gone completely and with our luck it will figure out a way to swing back around and get us again. It wasn't bad this time, didn't even get as much rain as we first thought we would. Still a bit of room in the pool but we will probably have to drain some this weekend and I bet it will be cold swimming.

I finished cutting up the t-shirts. Four laundry baskets full became one box, pretty amazing how compact they become when all you are keeping is the front or sometimes just the sleeve. So now they are just waiting for me to start sewing. No promises when that will happen.

I have been very busy on my digital scrapbooking. Here are two of the pages I have completed this week. Don't forget to click on them to be able to see and read everything.



Lot's of tivo watching today, got most everything watch.

Dan started his day late because his last job he couldn't do until 1800, so I really don't know when he will be home.

Waiting

I spent most of the morning waiting to see what Fay was going to do and surprisingly things went our way and we are just going to get lots of rain and some wind as opposed to WIND.

I also cleaned out the closet in Andy's old room and Dan moved the bed out of there to open up some floor space. Will make it easier for the port-a-crib to go in there. I went through old t-shirts and started cutting out the logos/designs so someday I can make a quilt out of them. More like 3 or 4 quilts there are so many.

Watched some more of the Olympics, the women's indoor volleyball against Italy was very exciting. Both teams were either playing very good or very bad at any particular but the USA ended up with more good times and won. So they will be going for medal.

Right now the wind and rain has picked up a bit and the pool is getting pretty full, might be overflowing by morning. That hasn't happened in a while.

Dan will be going to work tomorrow, he will probably get more rain tomorrow then we did today so that won't make his workday very enjoyable.
