Random Updates

Totally random post but this is about all I have time for.
-Made it back from MNPLS early Monday evening. While at the Mall Of America we splurged and got Miss A an American Doll 'Bitty Baby'. I LOVE it as much as she does. They have an entire store there in fact even a beauty salon. That's right, you could bring your doll and get her hair done. Even a little salon chair for her to sit on!! Oh dear me!! Anyone else have girls that have, or have had, an American Girl doll?? Accessories are EXPENSIVE!! I'm hoping to keep my eyes out on ebay and craigslist.
-My niece is visiting. We took her home with us. I'm not sure she's have the 'best' time but it's hard to do much when you have 2 small children that need naps b/c they are horribly crabby from all the weekend fun.
-I now know why we FLY everywhere. DH and I do NOT do well in the car. He goes to slow, hates traffic. I am constantly asking 'what exit?' or 'what's our hotel number?' and the dang TomTom. While that is my friend, it certainly isn't DH's. While trying to find our hotel we pulled over in a city park to get the lap top fired up. A cop stopped too to see if we needed help:) What a disaster it was finding our hotel.
-I hit my head on a water slide that i was supposed to stay lying down on. We, C'man and I, were going to fast so i tried to sit up hoping we'd slow down. Man hitting your head at 30+mph in WATER, is not something i ever care to do again. Then poor C'man hit his head too. It was a mess. Needless to say C'man opted to going down with JoJo and I opted out of those slides completely.

-CHICKENS!! Chicken drama resumes. WE moved them to there house last night only to have 2 chickens escape thru a hole and the dog got them. Goll darn it!!! so now we're down to 11!! We still need to do some work in there but at least they are out of my garage!

-Family-well my FIL continues to not get any better?? If that's the right word. They up'd his lithium but like everything i suppose it might take awhile to take effect. My MIL's SISTER was here from Washington state and she left Sunday!! She was supposed to be here THREE weeks!! It was just to much i guess. This all is so frustrating. I'll just leave it at that.

-Met my nieces BF last week. She's a recent grad of Iowa State and is looking for a job. Anyone?? Community and City Planning, or something like that!? At any rate she moved back home. Her BF came to visit her so they came over for supper. Was a lot of fun ACCEPT we watched at least one hour of the B-ball drafts?? I was like you've got to be kidding me?? Of course this is all said in humor b/c i teased about what fun this was...joke joke. DH and I did get a kick out of the two of them. Oh what young love. We laughed at the stories of choosing b-ball tournaments over spending 4 days with your GF, the little jives they took at one another, etc. C'man loved them both and we hope to see them again sometime soon.

-Remember back when i wrote about my FIL and put a note about hoping Megs wouldn't read about it for the first time on my blog, just to let you know she knew what was going on. She sent me a nice email and said that she knew what was going on. Just so any readers don't think how nice it was of me to tell her via my blog!

Sorry for this being so random but that's my life:)
