July 13, 2009Tonight's entertainment included taking my sick sister (whose hubby was playing in Lake Powell) some Popsicles and Gatorade while trying to avoid catching any of her germs, getting a screaming deal on cereal at Smith's (yummmm....Lucky Charms and Honey Nut Cheerios, 5 for $10), having a Mac&Cheese and cereal feast for dinner, taking a birthday card that Pearl scribbled all over to our neighbor Vickie, painting Pearl's fingernails blue to match Vickie's, and watching our road get paved. It was kind of interesting to watch all the trucks, back hoes, and other loud machines at work. Not to mention joking about all the construction workers standing around and the cops struggling to direct traffic on the now closed thoroughfares. Pearl seemed to enjoy all the noise (not sure how long we will enjoy it tonight though) but wasn't too keen on listening to Jeff explain the intricacies of road paving. I think she would have rather climbed on top of one of the machines and taken it for a spin than listen to her dad. But the best part of our exciting evening is knowing that tomorrow we can drive on a brand new, smooth paved road!

Kids LOVE construction stuff....for about ten minutes. It moves too slowly. Then a new phase begins and they want to know all about it again. The porch construction has been very entertaining for the boys....in spurts! Enjoy that road tomorrow!
Sounds like a great dinner to me! I had Lucky Charms from the great sale too!
I think you have inspired me...I may try one of these 365 projects...
