This morning... we slept in. Well, most of us anyway. Daddy is still up early, despite his best intentions not to do that.
This morning we had a chiropractic appointment, which was fun for Madison, who giggles and laughs throughout the whole thing. She has the greatest time, and it really is a good experience, and probably a needed experience after the last few weeks we've had. Afterwards, we were back home - Daddy was outside cutting around the edges a bit, which was really needed. The temperature is not really needed though - it was very hot today, and fortunately it doesn't take long to do the edges around the driveway and front curb.
Once inside, we ate a small meal, and tried out one of Madison's new games she got for her birthday, "Portals 2." It's actually an older game, but she's able to figure it out now, and the two of us were doing some co-op exploration and fun.
This wasn't for long though: we had an early date with Ye-Ye and Nana for a Father's Day dinner at 4:00 pm this afternoon, this one at Texas Roadhouse. It was nice to stop and take a breather, although we're still a bit exhausted from last week. Nothing like yesterday though - we were really tired then. But it was a nice, relaxing dinner, and of course the food is always good. Madison sat between Nana and Ye-Ye because she wanted to, and that was really sweet! The five of us had a good meal and good conversation. We had a gift for Ye-Ye, a gift card for Home Depot as he's been there quite a bit lately, plus some bacon brittle, which we're not quite sure about. But it has bacon in it, so it can't be that bad, right?
Anyway, it's been a quiet day, the calm before another lesser storm known as Gwinnett Summer Xtreme. We'll be all over that soon enough. But until then, we were off to the library while we had a chance, looking around for a while and getting the next book about the unfortunate Beaudelaire children. We begin reading about an austere academy tonight. Daddy also picked up some graphic novels of X-Men comics from 1990, which should bring back a whole lot of memories.
Speaking of which, we watched "X2: X-Men United" tonight, based on a request from Madison. This may be Daddy's favorite X-Men movie of all, at least so far. Madison enjoyed it too, along with some popcorn of course. That's a must. It won't be long before Daddy will be pulling out the comics from the X-Men that we have. I have hundreds. It was a near obsession in the 90's, and I have so many X-titles. Those will be fun turning back to - good times!
Tonight before bed, we read from our devotional and started the Austere Academy as well. We said our prayers, and it wasn't too much later that all of us were asleep. We're still worn out from the weekend, and it'll be good to sleep in tomorrow, one more time...
