This morning at 5am I got a phone call saying Kenzie’s school was closed for a snow-day. I was so happy, I turned off the alarm to get her up and went back to sleep. Then my mom in law called me to make sure I knew, and I was happy for the confirmation because I thought I had been dreaming. Im not really sure what I said to her because I don’t remember really talking, I just remember her saying no school haha.
So we slept in, then when we got up, we ate breakfast and got ready and headed over to my moms house, because Kimmy and Eli were in town. :)
We hung out there, knitted more washcloths, talked, laughed, ate lunch and had a great Friday time as we do every Friday when Kimmy comes. We were all sitting there when dad came in with a surprise for me, I had no clue what it was, it was in a big huge brown bag and super light. It was a big stick I carved all the bark off of, and made a point for a poker for our camp fire when we were camping during the summer. Dad carved “Vikki’s stick” in it. It was so sweet! I thought he burned it up with the fire wood, but he saved it for me…he is so sweet and special to me!
The kids played with legos, almost the whole time we were there. Kimmy built a awesome bulldozer out if some of the legos my mom found at Salvation Army about a week ago for only $5.80. Its pretty awesome!
The kids were so cute, they were all taking turns singing God’s Not Dead, and then when they sang it together it was funny…but super cute!
Isaac wouldnt smile for the first pic, so we did it without him haha…Nana and Aunt Kimmy got him smiling for the 2nd pic!
I had to take Kenzie to wrestling practice at 3pm so we left and after I dropped her off, the kids and I went to Jacks to get dinner…chicken fajitas…yum!
Kenzie got done at 6 so I picked her up and took her to a friend of ours to babysit, then I came home and made chicken fajitas…they were so good! While I was making them, the kids were eating the green, yellow, and orange peppers. They loved them…yep they are mine! haha
The kids ate them very good! I was kinda shocked! But they were also very hungry too haha.
After I cleaned up and sat down for a little while, I got the kids ready for bed…with Rodys help…and brushed teeth, read the Bible, and prayed, and they got into their peapods. Then I decided to go hang out with Melissa and Bruce until I had to pick up Kenzie, since they live only a minute away from where she was babysitting. Melissa and I sat and talked for a few min, then Bruce came in and he sat and made fun of stuff we were talking about…thats Bruce for ya hahaha. Hailey and Max came down, I think because they heard that I was there…which they were already in bed…Sorry Mel haha
Then when I was getting ready to leave, we thought they went to bed but they were being super quiet and hiding on the steps listening to us, just like we used to do with our babysitters when we were little hahaha.
It was really cute!
I picked up Kenzie then we went to Walmart to get something for Kenzies School Whiteout Dance…they just have to wear something white. The dressing room was closed, so she tried on everything over her tank top in the store haha. She is my girl! She found a really cute shirt, and she is going to wear black leggings with it. It was fun just hanging out with just me and her for a little bit.
We got home and she ate some Chicken fajitas, while I worked on knitting my 2nd washcloth, this one is much easier than the one I did last night. I had a little practice, but I also wasnt following a pattern, just the simple knit. So much better, easier, and gives me practice to get faster. This one is purple, and so cute!
My friend Jenny, sent me a pic of a brochure that her son Louie is in. He was born at 25 weeks, only 1 lb 8 oz I think it was. He was a micro preemie…what a little miracle. Super exciting to see him in a brochure haha. I told her Louie is famous now haha. He also marched and played his little drum in the Disneyland Parade in CA. Everyone was clapping for him and taking videos of him. I just absolutely loved seeing that. He is so cute!
Here is the brochure:
Isnt that awesome!!!
Here is a clip of him in the parade:
and here is another one:
I just love this little boy! He is so special to me!
Now I am going to bed, I am so tired! I feel like it was a really busy day! WOW!
Goodnight
