Friday
After work we dropped the kidlets off at my sister's place for the night so we could run up to the funeral home. After standing in a loose circle of people I hardly know for two hours, we went over to my cousin's house where we ended up watching old home videos of our husbands and their friends playing baseball. It was rather bittersweet, a mixture of laughter and tears. Considering the circumstances, it was a nice visit.
Saturday
After picking up the boys from my sister's, I had to run to Meijer to pick up a few things for that evening. We had a sitter lined up, which meant we needed to make sure we had dinner and snacks. Frozen pizza, pop and chips. I also needed a small curling iron capable of creating ringlets. I wanted to be a curly-haired candy corn witch. (I'll post pictures later).
While I was off shopping, the hubby was home disciplining our oldest child. He's officially obnoxious now and his mouth finally got the better of him. Someday, though, I'm sure he'll learn the difference between being funny and being disrespectful. It just might take a couple years. Although, for his sake, I really hope it doesn't.
After taking care of groceries and doing a bit of laundry, it was time to get ready for the adult only Halloween party we had been invited to. It took about 45 minutes to curl my hair. That's a long time in front of a mirror...I think it was worth the effort, though. (Pictures later, I promise.)
The party was fun. More on that later...
Sunday
After dropping the hubby off at the airport, the boys and I went home and watched movies until bedtime. Although, I did take a small break in order to get my homework done.
