December 13, 2024-Happy 18th Birthday Anderson

(click for today's pictures)

  • I had a huge list of all of the household chores written out this morning, but then once I had done about 20 of those this morning, I quickly decided that I was just going to do the necessary ones and throw the rest of that silly list away. Maybe I'll do some more of those obscure chores later or maybe even in January, but for now, there is no reason for me to clean the baseboards in any part of this house.
  • Nonna and Pops came over this morning to give Anderson his present. They brought a few cookies which everyone enjoyed. Surprisingly, everyone was awake already today except for Whitman. Anderson said that sleeping on his new mattress last night was the same as his old one (maybe we wasted our money-but probably not since we figure his mattress is at least 12 years old.) Keaton was pretty excited to have a new mattress for tonight-she even brought her old one down by herself and put it in the garage!
  • Robby and I then ran a few errands-he had a few shops to do, and I walked around looking for sales (I didn't find anything.) We picked Anderson up some Whataburger for his late lunch/early birthday supper. 
  • While we were gone, Reagan made it home from her first semester. It sounded like she had a fun final's week. She did some studying and did pretty well in all of her classes. She brought home her bedding for me to wash, so I worked on that some while I made a dessert for tonight,
  • Campbell and Graham went to work this afternoon, and then Campbell spent the rest of the evening getting things ready for her birthday party tomorrow. She has made a balloon arch, and it really looks good.
  • Robby and I had our Sunday school party tonight so that was fun. We all brought gag gifts, but I did leave with battery operated hand warmers so that was a win for us.
