Wow....what a speedy weekend....With scout day camp over with, life seems to be getting back to normal, you know the routine.....busy, kids, work, church,naps, etc etc.
Kati and I had a great date night. we went to a movie and just chilled.Kati is now hooked on Taco Bell chalupa's. It was nice to spend some one on one with her. We also have done some birthday shopping for her. Can you believe she will be 12 in a few days.
This week she is bagging candy for my boss, A little job that will earn her a bit of money. She is a hard worker when she puts her mind to it. She went to the local youth dance at he community center on Friday night, It's a once a month dance, where I don't think much dancing goes on. It is a nice social evening for her to catch up with the kids from school.I wouldn't be suprised if all they do is text each other all evening.
I am still having to hound her about the condition of her room. So I am planning a great big shock for her...She will not know what hit her. Stay tuned for that episode.
William and I have had a bit of time together too this weekend...We went shopping for his school supplies, and his money was burning a hole in his pockets. He earns extra money for helping with my coupon addiction. Actually, Kati has helped also this past two weeks, I think she sees it as easy money, although they do have fun, and it gets the job done faster. Well in most cases it does, they try to be the first on to lob the paper into the car, Most times it hits the back seat, sometimes it flies right over the top, This past week William almost lost an eye, with Kati's bad aim and powerful arm.

I must brag at this point........
I scored huge with mars candy. I have 220 full size candy bars, twix, mars bar, snickers and 3 musketeers, cost me nothing.zip, zilch, nada......yes. NOT A PENNY. All I have to do now is figure out where to hide it. This house is not like my Utah house with plenty of storage space. Nooooooo, We have a years supply of canned dog food under Williams bed. Water in my bedroom closet, Kati's bed is still up for grabs though, but I hesitate putting anything else in her room...see story above..
I have Hit a great deal with baby wipes too, By the time I am done with this deal I will have close to 250 packs. Cost...14 cents each. I am going to spread that out until December when the coupon expires.
OK, enough bragging...Back to life with the kids...William got a CD of a kids story book in a kids meal from Wendy's. He just loves the TREE HOUSE MYSTERY collection ,So we put the roof down on my car, reclined and listened to the whole CD and watched the stars. It was awesome. I think we will do that more often.
Folau has been really busy at work, they are very short staffed, so he has been filling in a lot.
I have booked a few days away this week for Kati's birthday...We are heading down to Corpus Christi, a couple of hours south of here. Hopefully Folau can get some fishing in and rest a little bit. He still walks around the house in heavy winter clothing, and I catch him turning off the air conditioner when he can sneak it...You gotta love him. And me, well I have been putting a lot of thought into getting fit, so I bought a pedometer with a coupon. OK, so don't rush me, it's a start.
