Last weekend we attended a fundraiser for a local sportsman's conservation group. It was a family-friendly event so we all made an evening out of it. There were activities for the kids and silent auctions and raffles for the grown-ups. I continued my streak of winning things that I don't need but that other people like (a welder, a gun and now a fly rod). We had a nice time even though at one point, we had to have a five minute conversation about whether our meal was a piece of fish or chicken (it was chicken).
This is the face I get when I ask Will to smile for the camera these days. Sigh. First-graders. |
Last night, Will and I had dinner at a local fast-food restaurant (actually my favorite fast-food restaurant) because it was Spirit Night for his school and each class has a competition to see who can collect the most receipts. It was a tough sacrifice but I had to do it. It's for the kids! Reina was spending the night with the grandparents and Glenn was eating a healthy meal so it was just the two of us. Afterwards we walked around for a few minutes and talked about Christmas. I still can't believe it's time for that. Bring on December!
