Keeping My Word

We had a really nice family weekend with Adam home. Aside from his aching mouth from all the dental work being done...he puts on a happy face, and makes the most of his days with us.
-Friday he had a dentist appointment, so we stuck close to home.
-Saturday we went to the museum and then out to lunch. Natasha really enjoys the museum, and is really enquistive. After about an hour, she was ready to leave so we headed to the gift shop. We walked out with 3 flavored candy sticks, and nothing else. When it comes to Natasha she will chose a piece of candy over a $50.00 anything, anyday. Saturday evening I went and got my hair cut. It was nice to get out by myself, and enjoy a little pampering. I was ready for a change from my long hair. I always wear it up in a bun or pony and thought it was time for something a little more wearable and easy. The lady I had did a wonderful job. She and her boyfriend just moved from the east coast in May. She is slowly getting used to Edmonton, but desperately misses home. I actually felt kind of sorry for her...she was obviously the new person, and no one seemed to acknowledge her.
-Sunday we got up and went to Tim Hortons for coffee and donuts, and then headed out shopping to Canadian Tire, and Marks Work Wearhouse. I got some new rubber floor mats for my vehicle, Adam got supplies to change his oil. He got a bunch of warm winter gear for work at Marks. I am going to head back there and pick up a new winter jacket, as the Windriver styles were one half price. I got to go grocery shopping with one kid which makes life and shopping so much easier.

Today was a busy day! I had a meeting for Natasha preschool at 1:00. Adam left back to Fort McMurray. Dad came over to pick up the treadmill. AND Natasha was struck down with a nasty fever. Her fever seems to have taken a turn for the best but I hope the results stay the same once the Advil wears off. I better call it a night it case it turns into a long one full of sick, sweet little girls!
