Making memories

 

Sis Myers and I.

It was really dark in her living room and my phone doesn't do the best with a flash.

(please take note: It's October, the sun is shining and it's not raining. Well it wasn't at that precise moment) LOL

Today Gram and I spent the day on the town. We went to the mall up in Federal Way. She had a gift card to Macy's she wanted to use so we went and did a lil shopping. She found a really pretty bedroom set and it was on sale!
After that we went to Red Robin and shared a burger with some of thier yummy fries.
We then went over to Ross, I had a gift card Trav had gotten me for my birthday, I found a skirt and a couple shirts. And then of course I must think of my lil kiddos when out shopping so I looked in thier section and found them each something they could use. And most wives would probably buy thier husband something too but then they aren't married to mine. My husband likes to shop for himself so I allow him to do so, I do believe he enjoys shopping more than I do, well in fact I know he does. haha So I very seldom buy him things because inevitably I end up taking it back because it's not what he wants or likes.
And so now I am just chillin until my honey gets here from work and see what he wants to do tonight. I think he feels like he's on a working vacation when I'm here, we go out and do something almost every night. He's probably much more tired when I'm here than when he's alone.
Last night he had to work so I went to church alone :-0 Aunt Trisha had said the boys could stay for the weekend so I went to church in Yelm so I could get them over there rather than drive to Yelm and then drive to Shelton.
Wednesday the boys and I drove down to Centralia and took Maw-Maw to lunch. We had a nice visit and the boys got to see lil Mutt who got so excited that she just couldn't contain herself. It's so nice Maw-Maw loves her dogs but I must say that I'm glad I've never gotten one. I have thought about it on a number of occasions and Maw-Maw always says I ought to get one but as I told her Wednesday, my boys are half grown and I've decided I don't want to raise another kid because that's exactly what one of those little dogs consist of only worse I think. So we just like to let the boys see Maw-Maw's lil doggies and we go to Gram's and they can see Gram's big doggie and that is that. Haha
Wednesday evening the boys talked daddy into taking them to the Cheesecake Factory, one of our favorite places. Although I don't care for thier food since almost the whole menu is chicken something or other, I do love thier cheesecake.
Yes I have fallen off the wagon and am eating like a "goat" (as Sonia would say) :-p
And WCC is coming up and I'm going to regret this terribly I know if I don't stop very soon. LOL
