Chris and I celebrated our 6th year wedding anniversary on the 10th...since Olivia and I have been a little sick over the weekend and my sore thoat never got better, and Chris feeling a little crappy, too, we only had a two hour date in the evening while our neighbors Lisa and Greg watched the kids...well, watch TV I should say since the kids were all in bed and almost sleeping :-)
Chris brought me 12 red roses and a very nice card and made me feel special!
On Wednesday morning I and the kids went shopping at a clothing store and Jonah lost his beloved fish. I spent 30 minutes at least on my knees robbing through the store but for my dear life I could not find the fish.
I looked on ebay and in one auction there is a fish and I put out an ad on Craigslist and somebody replied that she might have a fish for me...but this lady never replied after one day so I don't know if she just plain forgot it or what happened to her idea to help me.
Jonah is doing good so far without his fish, is of course asking for it but does not have a meltdown. Two naps and one night's sleep were going ok without his beloved toy.
Today was so warm again that the kids could ride their bikes in shorts - crazy Colorado weather! Tomorrow they expect snow again...it is true: in the morning you switch on the heater and in the afternoon the air condition!
Since Olivia was not allowed to go to preschool on Monday (due to being feverish still on Sunday evening and the school requires a 24 hour fever free period before entering school again) we visited the barn and Olivia was even able to ride Vanna! Of course, Jonah wanted too...
I am now getting Olivia English riding attire off of German ebay. It is soo much cheaper than here, since everything you find here in the English Tack Stores are imported things from Germany for double the prize!
Olivia will get boots, riding pants, a coat and a helmet from me for Christmas. So far we got one pair of riding pants...but we still have a few weeks until my Mom comes here in December!
