Trip down memory lane...

This afternoon Becky came over to see the kids and give them gifts, of course. But she brought a fake book that when you open it there is nothing in the middle, of mine from high school. Inside was a bunch of notes from my first serious boyfriend. Those notes made me laugh so hard...what a joke they were. Quite entertaining. Anyways, we had a very fun day. GG had gymnastics and afterwards we took the kids to Panera to redeem their free lunches. Then we walked around downtown and played at a park for a bit before we went over to the department so J could sign up for a DUI enforcement detail. After Becky left we took a long family bike ride around our neighborhood. Very relaxing. Oh yeah, yesterday J and I went to Linens 'N Things and bought a comforter, new quality sheets, and pillows for our bed. Last night getting into bed was pure joy! I've always liked our bed but now we have really soft sheets:) We have talked about getting nice bedding for some time now but we finally put those words into action. I'm really trying to follow through on more things we talk about doing like going to visit his brother and now the bedding! Last night when our babysitter came over she came bearing gifts for the kids. She went to Guatemala on a missions trip last week and she got something for GG and Monkey. GG got a little necklace with a Guatemalian doll inside it and Monkey got a really cool sling shot. They were both pretty excited about it. I don't know if we will ever get to go to Guatemala so this might be the only thing they ever get from there! It was really sweet of her to think of the kids. They just love her so much. That's it for now because I'm wanting to go snuggle into my bed even though it's not time yet...hehehe.
