It's definitely a soup day!

It's raining today - cloudy and ugly. Although the high is supposed to be 61 degrees, it's chilly right now. I didn't even think about giving the boys their umbrellas - they'll be sad - they hardly ever have the chance to use them.

We're going to have some meatball soup and crescent rolls (possibly some grilled cheese too)tonight -- because it's totally a soup day!!!!!

We did not go to the Renaissance Festival yesterday because we didn't want to trek through puddles of mud. We are planning on going next weekend. And this time, for the first time ever - we will be all decked out in Medieval garb!!! It's so exciting!! I can't wait to go and have fun and take some pictures to post!!!!

Yesterday we went out shopping - Target, JoAnne's, Kohl's and on line! It was great fun and it was so easy to spend way tooooo much!

We had lunch at TGIFridays - that was yummy. The fried green beans are the best! The Jack Daniels Burger is pretty good too. Jeff had the California Club and the boys both had pizza.

Saturday the boys had a surprise birthday party to go to for their friend Eric. They had fun with the trampoline, chickens, geese, dogs, cake, burgers and hot dogs. I only heard about it second hand because I was stuck at work. At least work was busy - that was a nice change!

I finally started reading "Eclipse" by Stephenie Meyer - the third book in the "Twilight" series. Everyone raved about how great these stories were - I'm kind of disappointed. I liked the first book, the second one really stunk, I'm hoping the third one gets better! I really need to write my own book - then everyone can critique me -- yeah, I won't look forward to that part, but I really do want to write a book one of these days.

There hasn't been anything very exciting going on, so I haven't had much to blog about. I hope we aren't boring anybody!!!! LOL
