12 on the 12th--October Edition

{click to enlarge}

  1. Cathy is in town from Saudi Arabia (!) so we planned for an early morning walk but I only had a half hour so we sat at McDonald's and talked.
  2. Whitney's illustrated birthday card for Randy.
  3. Randy's box of birthday Raisin Bran...he can have this any time of course but I bought it special for his birthday since no one else will eat it.
  4. Family photo in the car before heading up to help Adam and Amy move.
  5. Lori and I boxed up stuff from the kitchen...moving is overwhelming even when it isn't my own move!
  6. Lori and I stopped at Einsteins for a snack before heading over to the help unpack at the rental house. We don't have an Einsteins close to us so this was a treat.
  7. Adam and Amy's "new" house has a pool!!
  8. Upon arriving home Whitney immediately drew this picture of a cat using her water bottle...she's got skills.
  9. I started a new book in the cozy (A Virtuous Woman by Kaye Gibbons).
  10. Randy took a birthday nap.
  11. The four of us went to Chili's for Randy's birthday dinner.
  12. We stopped at the church to pick up all the primary teacher bags so I could clean them out and put the new class rolls in them (it took me 3 hours!).

That is too funny about the Raisin Bran!

I hope Adam and Amy stay in the rental long enough for your family to enjoy the pool with them next summer. here it's still hot enough to swim but I'm guessing there, not so much.

Yes, Whitney does have skilz. I would love to see her reaction to the great sidewalk art in some of the cities.

I love these monthly snippets Jill. Thanks for doing them.

Happy (very late) birthday to Randy.

I guess you will have to fill me in on the primary bags. I can't think of anything about changing the rolls out that would take three hours.

PS - It's almost the 12th again, should we try to get together? We often collide by accident on the 12th....
