• Robby had already left the house this morning to get a new tire for the mini van. The tire had been losing some air, but surprisingly it had 2 nails in it plus a bubble (I think). So hooray for that tire, it did pretty good only losing air once a week with two nails in it.
• That tire is like the suburban-it just keeps going....well, not so much today. I didn't use it while the kids were gone on their mission trips so when Robby started it afterwards, it was dead dead. We thought just some driving around would help, but it still stutters to start so that might be tomorrow's project.
• And since we are on the subject on cars, tomorrow will be a week since we heard that Reagan's new to her car wasn't going to happen. Hopefully soon, they haven't forgotten about us and will find another one that will work for us.
• I didn't have a huge amount of things on my list today-but I did discover that my dress for tonight had a spot on it. This was after I had already washed it and ironed it the other day so who knows what it was. Ironing is not by forte by far-it is even harder without an ironing board, but I got the job done.
• Anderson and Graham went to play basketball this afternoon. With their basketballing and Reagan's pickleballing, we are a pretty athletic family. Who knew?
• Keaton and Campbell went with me early this afternoon to help plate the desserts for Josh's rehearsal dinner. The cakes were in their pans, and we had to put them in cups and them top them with their toppings. I knew not to wear my light blue dress, and the girls had on their dresses so I was the cake scooper and was a sticky mess! 
• Soon Robby and everyone else showed up at the rehearsal dinner-it was a beautiful venue, and the evening was perfect. Chuys were for supper, and as soon as it was over Reagan headed out to play pickleball. Anderson and Graham decided that they were going to go as well so they are currently off playing pickleball in their khakis and polos. 
• The rest of us are back home trying to thaw out since it was chilly at the venue. And since we had a Thursday night event, it feels like today is Friday so I think that I will be confused tomorrow on what day it is.
