Sunday, Monday and Tuesday

Well ... I am just now settling in after three days of go-go-go :)

Here's a recap of the last few days!

Sunday:

  • We had our first IHOP experience!  
  • We shopped until we ... well, the mall closed :)
  • For dinner I made chicken and plain quesadillas and served them with fresh avocado, salsa and chips.  It was a hit!


Monday: 

  • The girls made their own fruit salad bowls for breakfast.
  • We ventured to WALMART!  It was an adventure of many choices!
  • We had sandwiches and Thai pasta salad for lunch.
  • The girls had DRIVERS ED!  They were a bit overwhelmed with vocabulary, but were great sports!
  • We drove to the Galleria area for Giorgia's 17th birthday dinner at Grand Cafe Lux.  It was a great time with a group of 13 or so of us.  
  • We arrived home around 11:30PM from dinner and the girls crashed and went straight to bed.  Unfortunately this is when I found a drip-drip-drip coming from the ceiling.  The AC tray drain was clogged and overflowed.  Roy and Devin came over and blew the drain out.  It was a late night and in bed around 2AM.
Tuesday:
  • We slept in!
  • I made french toast and breakfast tacos.  It was a hit!
  • We lounged around and were lazy until Drivers Ed :)
  • The girls had their 2nd Drivers Ed class and felt more comfortable!  
  • Susan Armstrong scored the girls 2 tickets to the Jonas Brothers for tomorrow night!  SWEET!
  • We stopped at Randall's and picked up more bread and a few random items.
  • For dinner I made spaghetti, salad and garlic bread.  For dessert we had chocolate chip cookie dough BLUE BELL ice cream!  
  • We watched "13 going on 30"
I wanted to jot down a few notes before I fell asleep and forgot the details of the last few days.  It has been busy but fun!  The girls are so sweet and I enjoy spending time with them!  The best thing so far is enjoying the little things ... everyday things you take for granted.  

Tomorrow we register for HIGH SCHOOL.  Wish us luck :)
