It sounds like you had a good weekend!! Keep going to the volleyball games and you'll be surprised at how quickly they improve!! Jaci has played all through school and I love going to watch her play. Next year 3 of my granddaughter's will be starting and I plan on going to as many games as I can when Jaci's not playing.

You certainly got a taste of what I go through most of the week with watching a 2 year old!! I've never been one to be thankful for Friday but I find myself really looking forward to having time to myself. Karlie's really demanding and I've decided that I'm not going to let the TV be her babysitter so it's really been a challenge because it makes her more demanding when it's off.

Saturday I cleaned the house. I have an uncle that his father just passed away and sometime in the next few days we'll be having some of my cousins come and stay with us for the funeral.

It was so nice outside that I did a little bit of yard work!! I trimmed some plants that really needed it and then I took a 4-wheeler ride!! We have some trails in our back yard and I rode around on some of them. It was so nice to get outside!!! It makes me ready for spring!!!

Then today after church we drove to Chanute and ate Chinese with Dae Lynn and Damon. They paid for our meal for my birthday!! It was a nice surprise. Then Glen and I went to Wal-mart and shopped around. I bought several things that I needed and picked up some new throw rugs for the house. They had roses on them and are so pretty. Then we came home and ate some supper and Glen and I played a new game that we got for Christmas called Khet. It's a laser game played with mirrors. Very different. I beat Glen once and he beat me once.
