Week Rundown! (10/14/12 - 10/20/12)



Sunday:

We had a lots of rain night before and the kids ended up sleeping on the floor around our bed since the thunder was so loud. It was an average Sunday morning.

The kids took naps in the afternoon, and during the evening service Mysia sang in church childrens choir.


Monday:

A pretty normal day, and the evening was pretty good as well. We had the kids work on cleaning their rooms.


Tuesday:

Mysia had Crazy hair day at school, and was happy to have all sorts of ribbons and clips decorating her head.

I got to take field trip to the KWFC tower in Fordland with my coworkers. It pretty neat.

Doe the evening, the kids played and we watched the debates while working on a few projects and homework.


Wednesday:

Today was Father & Daughter day for Mysia and I since she didn't have school. Lydia still had classes and work, and Malachi attended daycare. Mysia had a list of things to do and places she wanted to go. Her list even included breakfast!

The only down part of the day was our first stop... the dentist. Yes, I had to get a temporary crown for one of my teeth. It wasn't really expected, and it tool longer that what we planned. However, I made it up by taking her to the mall. We walked the entire building.

For lunch, I had originally planned to go to the park, but we noticed storm clouds coming in. We picked up her free pizza from Pizza Hut (a gift from her school teacher), and headed home to let her watch a few of her favorite tv shows. Sure enough, it rained hard!

We visited Grandma and Granny before returning home to meet up with Lydia and Malachi. We ate a quick supper, and attended church services.


Thursday:

Mysia had Crazy hat day at school... so she wore a funny cowboy hat.

For the evening, after supper, they worked up picking up their rooms while I worked on projects and Lydia did her homework. Before showers and bed, the kids and I used sandpaper to smooth their derby cars for the race on Saturday, then we gave them a good coat of silver spray-paint.


Friday:

For school, Mysia got to wear her favorite pajamas. Malachi got to wear orange for a field trip to the pumpkin patch with his daycare. Lydia didn't have classes or work, so she slept in for a bit while I dropped off the kids and then the took van at the auto shop. The van needed new front tires.

It was our day together, so after Lydia picked me up from the auto shop, we did the necessary shopping for the month. We visited almost every grocery chain! Lunch was our rest time at home before heading out again. We enjoyed the time together, but were wore out by the time we arrived home with the kids.

The kids and I worked on painting and decorating their derby cars for tomorrow's race.


Saturday:

Yup, "Race Day" was held at our church this morning! There were things to do! Lydia helped with concessions, and I was in charge of dj for the music outside where the classic automobiles were brought in.

I got to watch the kids race their cars, and then headed downstairs to eat some of the food. While I was gone, my car won 2nd place in the adult division! What a neat surprise to find out during the devotion later in the afternoon... While doing 'clean-up' after the event, the kids played on the church's playground and enjoyed the fallen leaves.

Once back home, we all took naps and spent the rest of the evening being lazy.
