Thought it would be a good idea to take a nap this afternoon- now I am thinking...NOT SO MUCH! I am wide awake at 12:35. I tried to get to sleep for about an hour before giving up and coming back downstairs. I read an entire novel (granted it was 7th grade reading level so I could preview it for my class, but still- I read an entire novel!!!!) Still wasn't tired, so now I'm on the computer. Maybe this will put me to sleep. :-)
Last night the auction was so-so. We got there at 6:00- they had a Chinese auction, a raffle auction and a silent auction. I bid on a month's family membership to MVP gym, a round of 18 holes for 2 at the Ravines, a Mary Kay satin hands set, and I think that was it. Oh- I also bought 13 raffle tickets to put in assorted boxes to win gift certificates to different places. I didn't win a thing. Lisa won a breakfast for 2 at the Trestle Stop and a Mary Kay satin hands set. She had much better luck than me. There was a ton of $$ given away and a LCD flatscreen TV given away as a door prize- once again, no luck. Oh well- they had a Mexican buffet and ice cream and brownies for dessert, so that was well worth it. We left there and went to Wal-Mart. Returned aqua-dots, got a few stocking stuffers, browsed around and headed home.
Today, Cobe had his second indoor soccer game- last week they got slaughtered 6-0; today they won 7-0! Big turn around. We then headed to Dr. Green's office with Lynette and her kids so Brooks, Bailey and Elliot could get flu shots (not as traumatic if you go with friends?- a new theory). We then went to Super King buffet. You can read Lynette's blog for a humorous account of what she thought of it. We hung out for awhile after that and then had to head home for Cobe to go to baseball practice from 2-4. Thankfully, the Medendorps took him and brought him home, so that is when I snuck in my nap. Sadie napped, and Brooks and I were snuggled in my bed- he watched a movie and never went to sleep. Then Jen dropped her boys off so they could go out to dinner and the 6 kids had a blast playing. They wrestled, played outside with flashlights, and watched Monster House. I ran to Target while they all watched a movie to get a few more Christmas presents. Plus I have decided to get all new picture frames and wanted to check out the prices/styles. If anyone knows a good place for plain, black, wood frames, let me know.
And that brings me back to now.... hopefully I have killed enough time to fall asleep. Sweet dreams!

Wow, it's been a while since I was here! What cute kids you have! :) Sadie's dress is adorable, love those little presents! Bummer that you didn't win anything... I don't know if I could handle the dissapointment. But the good food must have made up for some of it! Did you say 13 tickets though???? Why not 7???? (Lucky vs unlucky???)
