A Full Weekend...

...the weekend has been a pretty good one. Yesterday, I went with Stephenie and Judy down to the Indiana State Fairgrounds to a paper crafts show. I loved being able to go and look around, but I didn't see anything that I just HAD to have. So I left empty-handed. We had a leisurely lunch at Steak n' Shake, and then I went home In the evening, Aaron and I went to a local bar, where a few of my friends from high school met us to watch the UFC fight. It was so weird to see people I'd not seen in so long. It was good to catch up with them.

...today, I woke up with a mighty hangover. I was about ready to drag my sorry bum out of bed, when Aaron came in and told me that we'd forgotten to set our clocks, and missed church. Oops. We then kind of hung around and did some errands. The twins had a playdate this afternoon, which went pretty well. I discovered that two hours is a good time for their age. Right about the time it was time for them to leave, the kids all starting getting on eachothers' nerves. So it was time. But they had a good time, and I'm hoping that we can do it again. I really enjoyed playing with friends as a kid, so I want to make sure to do that for them, too.
While the kids were here, though, I took the time to sew patches on Collin's Boy Scout uniform. I don't mind sewing, as I've been getting more familiar with my machine with doing cards. However, I do not like sewing with clear thread. It's so hard to work with. And I also do not like sewing on sleeves. Collin actually learned how to sew patches, which I didn't know. So he got to help. Because, let me tell ya, I was about ready to lose it. But it's done now, and I'm thankful for that.

...After I got done sewing, I discovered that Erin has another fever. It's actually climbed up to about 103 now. So she'll be staying home tomorrow and heading to the doctor. *sigh* I thought we were headed to the end of the sick season.

Now you know how to get out of church, the whole "I forgot to set the clock" excuse! Good for you!

Sorry about Erin.
