The Weekend

Saturday was pretty uneventful. Martin took Graisi to ice-skate that morning and then got her two new swings for the swing set. The others were dry-rotted. Tells you how long we've had it, huh? Then she came home and played with her friends all afternoon. They had water balloons they were carrying around the cul-de-sac in an Easter basket pretending they were dragon eggs. Ahhh...the imagination!!

Before Martin left to play Poker, Alli Claire tasted her first food Saturday night. I didn't realize baby-food banana's were so tangy! She would taste them and then push them out, pucker her face up and shiver as if someone squeezed a lemon in her mouth. It was a bit amusing! Last night we tried it again with the same response. So I mixed her up some rice cereal with apples. She liked that much better.

Church was great!! Buddy taught on the benefits and fruits of marriage. It's always nice to hear that it's ordained by the Holy Word of God!! YEA GOD!!!

After church, Martin grilled Salmon for lunch with mashed potatoes. It was also great! He kept Alli Claire while Graisi and I took in a matinee movie. A Night at the Museum was a fantastic kid movie. Albeit, it did have one word that the movie could have done without (the "a" word), but it was still funny. We both really enjoyed it. When we got home it was time for spelling homework, dinner and baths.

I'm loving the slower pace these days!!

I finally got the pictures we took at Christmas, but I forgot them at home today. Hopefully, I'll remember tomorrow and get them posted. Gives you something to look forward to :-)
