Family Fun

Curt and I both of the week off, so I thought that since we have been running around like nuts for the past couple of weeks, going here and there for Christmas gatherings it would be nice if we just had some family time.

Tuesday morning I did hair for a few people, and the we went to the city to get some new bedding with some gift cards that Curt and I got. I have been wanting to get some new stuff for a while know and asked from some gift cards for Christmas to help out with the cost. Thank goodness we had them, because before it was said and done, a new duvet cover, 2 pillow covers, 1 accent pillow, 2 sets of curtains, 3 lamps and new sheets our bill was over $300.00. Expensive...yes, but so worth it. After 5.5 years in our house we finally have a bedroom that is nice to go and spend time in. It finally looks like a complete grown ups bedroom.

Yesterday Jaxon went and spent his last Wednesday with his Gammie. For the past year my mom has been working a 5 day work week, in 4 days and has had Wednesdays off. Her and Jaxon have spent every Wednesday together, and the both loved it. Unfortunately that has come to an end as her company has told her that they will not allow this anymore, and she has to go back to her 5 day work week!!! We are not sure if this will be a permanent thing, but for know he will not have his Wednesdays with his Gammie.
Jaxon had a dr. appointment first thing in the morning and then he went and spent the day with Gammie. Curt and I spent the day relaxing around the house doing a whole lot of nothing. It was great to have a rest day after the business of the holidays, and even nicer that we did not have a 2 year old around to interrupt our rest!!!
Today we thought that we would go swimming in Hanover for some fun. The family swim was from 11:30 -12:30 so we were there for the most part of the hour. There was also a hockey tournament in the complex, and Jaxon wanted to stay and watch it. He really has a fascination for the Zamboni lately, and he likes to watch hockey with hopes that he will get to see the Zamboni do it's job. I was not much for sitting there and watching a bunch of children that I did not know play hockey, so I bribed him a bit and told him that we could go to McDonald's for lunch instead of standing around watching hockey. He was ok with that idea, so we went for some lunch and we are know home and fighting with Jaxon for him to have a nape...I think he just might win this fight as it is almost time for him to get up from his nape, which he has never had!!!
