A busy week

John took some time off this week, Monday through Wednesday. Monday we loaded up, ourselves and the dogs, and headed to Sesqui. It is beautiful there. We do love walking the trails. We had lunch under the tall pines between walks. The dogs enjoyed themselves too. We even met up with a lady who works at the drill hall. One of her twins, Jessie Lynn, kept hugging Hank. He wasn't so sure what to do, but he was a good boy. Rosie loved the attention too.




Monday night I met my friend Lauren for coffee. I always enjoy our talks. While we are very different, we are very much the same. It is always nice to talk to someone who understands where you are coming from.

Tuesday was a quiet day. We stayed home most of the day. John and Chloe worked on her "corn field". The onions she planted last week have started growing, so she is really excited. Jesse and I read.

Wednesday, Jesse volunteered at the library. We left John and Chloe at home. But about 10:30, I looked around the library and there was Chloe coming toward me...they were bored. lol  They had gone to Michael's to get supplies to make Chloe a new PEZ dispenser display. They spent the day working on it. She was really happy with the way it turned out. Last night, I made it to my book club. I missed not being there last month.



Her other PEZ display is now being used for her holiday PEZs. She forgot to take a picture, but we'll try to get one posted soon. It is funny to see hearts and bats in the same display, but she loves it!

We also ran a few errands. Monday John gave the dogs water from his hands, so he decided we needed some kind of folding water bowl for the dogs for hiking. While we were out, we went to PetSmart to buy one. Chloe also wanted to buy a book for the book signing next week at the library. Since we bought her a book, Jesse got the newest book in her favorite series too.

Today has been quiet. The girls and I got our hair cut, school completed and soon we'll be getting ready for taekwondo.

The next few weeks will be just as busy. We have so many appointments, an art class, a field trip, parties and other things on the calendar; I just hope we don't miss accidentally something.

I'm thinking that as our kids keep getting older, our busyness won't slow down. I'm bummed that we don't cross paths at the library on Wednesdays!

Me too! It looks like the speech class is going well. I wish we could have joined in, but way too much going on with us.

I think I photo-bombed the dogs with my foot. Rosie will get angry with the spotlight not on her.
