Monday August 27th

We had a nice weekend.

Friday and Saturday we didn't do much. I mowed the yard on Saturday and went to the grocery store. We had taco's for dinner. They were great! Saturday night I crocheted some while Eddie played a video game. I am making Vallerie a little flower scarf. I only have a few more leaves to make, and then I have to attach them, but it's looking really good. I am going to try and make her a little beanie and a headband to match the scarf. Not sure if I can make a beanie, but I think I will at least try.

I finished Interview with the Vampire yesterday. I have the movie at home, so I am planning on watching it soon. I'm sure it will suck compared to the book.

Yesterday was interesting. A "funny" story...

Eddie was in the shower, and I was finishing up the last few pages of my book in the living room with Vallerie. In the corner of my eye I see Vallerie standing on the couch. No big deal, she does it all the time. Then I hear the sound of liquid being poured on the couch. I turn my head, and all I see is Vallerie, naked from the waist down, running across the couch. Yes. She peed on the couch (standing up mind you) and then ran away. I was like "Vallerie, what the hell??!" So, I picked her up and put on a new diaper and pants and then cleaned off the couch. I am SO glad we didn't buy a cloth couch. It makes cleaning up mysterious (and sometimes not so mysterious) liquids off the couch so much easier. I told Eddie about it, and he thought it was funny.

Around 5:30 we decided to take a walk. We walked along the canal and went over to my Aunts house. She is building a garage , so we checked that out. She's also got some kittens running around, so Eddie caught one and Vallerie petted it. (The poor kitten was terrified). It was so cute. I wanted to take it home, but Eddie said no. Boo Hoo.

Then we decided we would walk to my grandpas. Luckily the way we went was next to my uncle's house. We saw that my grandpas car was in his driveway, so we stopped by there instead. When we go there, my aunt was there too and they were all getting ready to eat dinner. We weren't planning on staying (and crashing their dinner) but before we could refuse they were putting the leaf in the table and getting out more plates for us. It was a good dinner, but I hated intruding like that.

After that we walked the trail home. Vallerie had a good time picking up sticks along the way.

Then it was bed time for Vallerie. Eddie and I watched the movie Something Borrowed. Eddie thought it was horrible, but I didn't think it was that bad. We have a netflix movie we need to watch too. Maybe tonight?
