Birthday dinner and shopping.
Dinner with the family was a really good time as always.
Susan and Skye were so damn cute.
Skye, who hate vegetables, actually ate one of the Chinese green beans in less than 3 minutes this time.
That's a huge accomplishment for her, even though we did have to nudge her a little with other little food treats.
Susan absolutely loved her first aid kit I gave her for her birthday.
I know that's weird gift, but she has a little animal hospital toy I gave her for this past Christmas, and it's her most favorite thing to play with.
She is also always playing doctor with all her stuffed animals, putting band-aids on people, just all kinds of little doctor bandaging fun, so when she saw the kit and opened it to all those different sizes of band-aids and eye patches, and finger splints, and butterfly band-aids, she was in little doctor heaven! It was far too cute.
After dinner, we went to the dreaded Walmart because they are the cheapest place to buy stuff, and with the state not doing the tax free holiday week like they do every year, I had to go where it was the cheapest to buy clothes.
I got the boys all their new shorts, t-shirts, socks, boxers, and new backpacks.
My sister bought their new sneakers for them to help me out.
And I managed to find a new pair of Dr. Scholl's sandals, not the same style, but they were mighty comfortable, easy to get on, and on sale.
Then we came home and Mark and Sebastian started playing the new video game Mark bought with some of his birthday money.
We'll be heading to the grocery store tomorrow morning to stock up on food and stuff.
Tropical Storm Fay is due to head this way by Tuesday, so we'll stock up on all kinds of canned goods and stuff in case the power goes out.
Later days.
