They Called!

Well, a representative from Simply Fun called me today, but I didn't recognize the number so I didn't answer it. She left a great message!

I'm not going to call her back today, though, because I haven't had a chance to discuss the idea with Brian. He didn't get home until 3AM last night (overtime), so Evie and I were already sleeping. Then today he was still sleeping when I went to visit my sister Emily. I thought about waking him, but with overtime every night this week, he needs his rest. I don't think I'll get a chance to talk to him tonight either, but maybe I can wake my sleepy butt up when he does get home.

I'd like to make sure it sounds like a good idea to him so that when I do talk to the woman, if it sounds as good as I think it does so far, I can go ahead and commit. I'm excited!

Brodie got home from Gramps n Grammy's and their trip to Cedar Point this afternoon. He had such a great time! He rode The Iron Dragon and Thunder Canyon! One of his favorite things was getting to DRIVE the bumper cars! I'm really glad he got to go with them. It was too expensive for Brian and I to go and take the whole family, so Gramps and Grammy offered to take Brodie since they already had reservations at the hotel. Isn't that nice of them? I got so lucky. I have a whole family of awesome inlaws!!

This past weekend was the Orr Family Reuinion for Great Grammy's 75th birthday! Beautiful weather helped make the picnic nearly perfect! Aunts, uncles and cousins from all over got together to celebrate the occasion. Brodie and his cousins got along and played together as if they'd known each other all their lives. It was so cute! He and Lydia in particular really hit it off. She and her family live in Texas. Brodie got to go to Oaklahoma the summer he was just under two and met Lydia, her parents, and grandparents then, but he doesn't remember that now. The kids plan to write letters to each other! That'll be a great way for them to keep in touch AND to practice writing, English, and the good old fashioned art of writing letters!

Today is a hang around at home day because Meg (my bestest friend) is over using Angie's Laundry Service. Later we may use the money she saved from not taking it all to the laundry mat to go get wings at High Tide at Geneva on the Lake. They have the BEST wings around!
