Good Times!!!!

I am so very glad I got to get out of the house for a little while yesterday. I REALLY needed it! I practically floated out to the car when I was leaving and couldn't stop smiling on my way to meet my friends. I love being able to stay home with my children but for the passed few days I have really been feeling more and more like I really needed to get away for a little while and yesterday cured me of those feelings so I am happy and content again. I think I really only require a few hours here and there to keep me sane and I need to make that time a priority more than I do.

After I got home yesterday afternoon we had plans to go to my MIL's house to cook out. We all actually had a really great time. The situation with Jamey's sister usually always ends up bubbling up to the surface and puts a damper on things but I think she and her husband (who STILL live with my MIL) were not drugged out last night so everyone ended up having a wonderful time.

My MIL looked and felt great last night. She was all dressed up and was sporting a new fancy smancy wig that looks a lot like her hair looked when Jamey and I first started dating. It was so wonderful to see her having a good time. I think she got a little tired at the end of the night but for the most part she seemed more like her old self than she has since all of this started. I am very glad that Jamey was on his best behavior for her benefit. It was all he could do to hold his tongue about his mooching sister and brother in law but he did it and I was pleasantly shocked that everyone had such a good time.

I have posted some pictures of my children entertaining us with their musical antics, singing and dancing as well as some other random shots I got last night. (They were wearing aprons in two of the pictures because they were playing restaurant before they decided to form a band and entertain us.)

Later Gaters!
