These are the days that we all wish didn't exist. Personally, we're okay. Personally, we're a happy family all together and doing well. And because of the events of late last night, we're hugging each other a bit tighter, grateful for what we have - that others now don't. It was a terrible day in Las Vegas, and in fact it will be a terrible season for the people there.
We were back to our routines of life today, starting with a return to school for Madison. She had PE today, while Daddy and Mommy were cleaning up the house from creating the LEGO figure, and also finally getting all that salt off of the car. We went to the car wash and spent around 45 minutes working on it, and it still needs another attempt, I think. That stuff was caked on from spending time along the Atlantic Ocean.
It was a day to recover for us, although we didn't have as much time to do that with the grocery shopping that needed to be done. Also, Mommy was getting a frame for one of her pictures. Eventually this week, we'll be submitting framed pieces of art we've created to the Quinlan Art Center here in Gainesville. We'll share pictures of that, but we thought it would be fun to hang some artwork up as a family, the three of us. Madison's framed picture from Christmas, the one in Daddy's office, will be hanging at the Art Center soon as a part of the Member's exhibition. It'll be fun to share some material. Maybe next year we'll do photographs or something.
Anyway, it was a fairly mundane day. Madison was back dancing this evening, and loving that of course. She missed last week, but was happy to see everyone again this time, catching up with everyone.
We went home and watched "Toy Story of Terror," complete with the commercials on the Blu-Ray. You need to watch it that way if you ever get this movie. The Combat Carl character is just perfect.
Tonight, we finished the Nancy Drew book at last, discovering the culprit behind the zucchini smashing, and the one responsible for stealing the Fabergé egg. We won't reveal who that is, but we will say this isn't the last Nancy Drew book being read in the house. Madison is clearly hooked, even suggesting at one point dressing as Nancy Drew for Halloween upcoming. We'll see how that works out!
