Brown Paper Bag Date

It's not what you think! :) brown paper bags are very useful! :)

Last night while Curt was at his meeting I wrote down some serious and stupid and funny questions. I then included a king size Reese cups and king size twin bars. Yes, completely and totally healthy! ;)

Anyways... It was just much needed no cell phone or computer time. It was late by the time he got home, but I managed to stay awake! Haha!!! :)

We haven't had a date in a long time and while this isn't a get-out-of-the-house date... It is a date nonetheless. :) I told him I have a few more planned but will keep that a secret until I do them! Not sure if he's nervous about them or not? ;)

You don't have to get all fancy to have some nice quiet quality time with your spouse! A little planning and a brown paper bag! Anything you can fit in there for a nice fun date! :)

I did one where I grabbed a RedBox movie, a bag of microwave popcorn and some of his favorite candy. I wrote a note that said I promise to stay awake and off my phone. :) I think that was right before we left for China or right after we got home... I don't remember now... :)

Anywho, give it a try! :)

We sat and ate our candy and talked and asked questions! :) some of them we already knew, but that's ok! It is just the fact you are talking with nothing to interrupt! :)

Here are a few questions I asked:

What are your 5 favorite foods?
What is one goal I can help you accomplish this year?
What can I do to make you feel more loved?
What can I do to make you feel more respected?
What is your favorite book(s) of the Bible?
What is your favorite Bible verse(s)?
How would you describe me to someone who has never met me?

These are just a few things I wrote down... :)

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
