A nice dinner, PS3 and Lacey up all night, again

Both boys were tired yesterday which is usually the norm after a sleep over. Other than that the day was pretty uneventful. I wrapped up some work for the year but will still work Monday. We still have boxes of Christmas stuff around the house but are making progress.

4:30 in the afternoon (when we were supposed to be at our friends house to go to dinner) came quickly as I went to the gym around 1 in the afternoon since our lab kept me up for most of the night which threw off my schedule of going early in the morning. We hurried over the the Harris’s to drop the boys and head out with them to a new place called Duo for dinner. It’s in one of the revitalized neighborhoods that used to be not such a nice part of town. Now it’s filled with fun shops and restaurants and has that funky feeling. Dinner was really good and our friends insisted that they get the check when the bill arrived. We then drove home to their house to pick up the kids and head home. It was only about 8:30 when we arrived. Lo and behold there were two boxes sitting at the front door which the boys spotted from the car. They knew in an instant it was the Play Station 3 from Auntie Kristin for Christmas. She’s been buying the boys a great gift ever since they were born.

Once we were in the house, there was no waiting until morning to set this up, they’d been waiting too long and were too excited. I took care of the dogs and closing up the house while Mom helped the boys get their new system set up. I’m sure today they’ll be occupied most of the day with the new video game.

Around 12:30, you know who woke us up. The misses said she’d get up and let Lacey out and I said I get her in a few hours when she’d undoubtedly bark again. It wasn’t until 4:30 when she again barked so that’s when I got up for the day. When I made it down the stairs, my superman like night vision allowed me to avoid the two piles of doggie puke on the floor. It looks like she’s still trying to get rid of all the dates she ate the other night. Hopefully she’s learned her lesson but I doubt it, she’d probably eat them all over again if she had the chance. Of course now she’s sleeping soundly.

Tonight we’re going to dinner at our friends in Genesse which is a bit up into the mountains. It’s a dinner party for 12 and should be fun. I wish I would have slept a bit longer this morning but once I get up I can’t really get back to sleep.

So that’s it, have a great day, take care and God Bless, I’m off to the gym.
