Laying Low

As today was the first weekend day that we had nothing planned (no classes, no parties, no meetings, no events, no trips) in a long time AND we were all still ab it sick, we agreed to lay low and stick around the house getting stuff done and just hanging out. Of course that lasted about 50 minutes for me and I took the girls shopping while Michael stayed with Parker. After we got back, we made some cookies. Parker helped measure and mix and all three painted their own cookies. Parker did great, but the girls had a hard time not breaking the cookies apart.






After naps, we did some more cookies and then went outside. Michael packed up the tent that we had left up for weeks. (Last night the wind was so strong that it blew the tent across the backyard. I raked up the weeks of leaves that were there (as we got rid of our gardener...again) and the used the air blower/sucker to get the rest. The yard looked great and the kids looked dirty. So they went in for a bath and we got ready for dinner. It was a nice day.
