Friday evening was the picnic that I organized. Eddie and I went shopping for all the food, It was nuts! We got some good things, and I think the picnic went well. I sent out a survey at work just to be sure.
Saturday we had lunch at Arni's with my sister, Aunt, Gpa, and Uncle. Eddie stayed home because he wasn't feeling well. He has a cold. It was a pretty good lunch. Vallerie was good. Although I kept trying to get her to be a pirate and say "Arrr" but she wouldn't. After we got home and got through the day, Vallerie went to bed and Eddie and I played some video games. After that I crocheted a little of Vallerie's doll and went to bed.
Sunday I tidied the house and then met up with my sister, aunt, and gpa at the canal. We walked around for a few minutes then went back to my grandpas house. My sister had some presents for Vallerie's birthday, so she opened those. She got some squishy Baff. It's this stuff you put in your bath water to make it like jello... I think she's too young for it, because I have a feeling she would eat it. She got some bath toys, and some bubbles with a pig that you use to eat the bubbles. Vallerie liked the bubbles and would say "bubble, pop". My sister thought that was funny.
After we were done there I got dinner and then put Vallerie to bed. I crocheted more of Vallerie's doll. I got all the hair done. That was really a pain in the butt. Not because it was difficult, but because since she has curly hair, I had to crochet blocks of yarn, get them damp, dry them, and then unravel it. I finished up the legs. I put some glass stones in the feet to make them weighted. I think it looks good so far. I can probably finish up the rest in a day or two. All I need to do now is the arms, her dress, and add her mouth and a few other details. I might make one for each of my 7yr old nieces too. I have a couple other crochet projects to do first though.
Over the weekend I got to drive the company truck. (used to pick up all the stuff for the picnic) I have to say, I love that thing! It is so awesome! There's a back up camera in the rear view mirror, and temperature control on both the drivers side and passenger side. Eddie had his temp set to like 65 degrees and mine was at 80. We were both comfortable! It was great! It also had more room in the back than our little car. I wouldn't mind having one that's for sure. Oh, and it had 7 cup holders up front. 7! 2 in each door and 3 in the middle.
I think that's all I have to report for now.
