The Puddles

So after a morning cleaning the church (Why is it that I can garner more excitement for cleaning the church than my own house?), I came to find Chris trying to kill himself with a heat stroke while cleaning the garage.  Seriously, I know that our garage needs to be cleaned out, but good gracious, it was like 120 degrees outside and worse in the garage without a breeze or a fan.   I asked him to pack it up and start again this evening after the sun goes down.  It will at least be below 95.

Until then . . . we decided to make a family day of it.  After much discussion about movies amongst the entire family, it was decided that in order to maintain family unity we would go to separate movies.  The girls went to Judy Moody and the boys went to Kung Fu Panda.  We met in the lobby afterwards.  Everyone enjoyed their movies.  It was already 7pm when we got out so we went to go eat at the new restaurant by the house.  It’s called Whistle Stop Cafe.  The owner came out and talked to us (well. . . to every customer).  Chris talked to him about coming in there to work.  The guy offered him a corner to set up in.  He brought out sample Tortillo Soups for us to try (really good!).  He’s changing the menu to tailor it to what his customers want.  Plus it has wi-fi!  So I think we’ll be back!

The dinner was good. The movie was great.  It was time for bed and time to get ready for the next day.  It was great spending time as a family.  Now back to work, chores, and the mundane life!
