This is our first week on our summer schedule. The schedule is having fun each day. Monday we walked to the village for breakfast and did some shopping at Kohl's and Target. Evan loves to shop and loves to go to Target. He doesn't necesssarily like to shop for Mom stuff but loves to go with me and usually can talk me into something. Lately it has been Cars toys. Tuesday we left the house early and went to Hobby Lobby to pick up some trim for the window treatments my Mom and I are making for my Living and Dining Rooms. It was $1.79 per vard with a coupon versus $6.65 at Joannes. I need 24 yards so it was an enormous savings. We manged to cut out 3 treatments and have 3 more to go. We finished the day with a trip to our neighborhood playground. Today I had a former student come and do our mulch while I played with the kids. We took a trip to the library, Walmart, and on the way home Evan noticed the Theater in town was showing a movie (CARS 2). He asked if it was open and if we could go. I told him we would call Grandma. My parents came and took him to the movie. Sara and I are home alone, this never happens. We went for a 2 mile walk and now we are playing.
I took pictures of the kids yesterday and ordered them from Walmart. When I went to pick them up today they told me they needed a photo release. Confused and annoyed I explained I took the pictures and they argued with me. Just as I was getting to ask for a manager they relented. I guess its a compliment. Waiting in line with Sara trying to climb out of the cart and then being hassled wasn't what I had planned.
Tomorrow I am headed to Fisher Price for a Moms group. The will pay me $50 for each session and told me they last from a 1/2 hour to an hour and are held every other Thursday all summer long. Hopefully I'll be able to make them. I'm hoping Evan and Sara get called to model soon our Fisher Price gift cards are dwindling!
