Both kids enjoyed their swimming lessons this morning. And once again, I left a minute or so early so I get a jump on the family changing rooms. There are only six, and are in great demand. I did get a room right away, and was out relatively quickly. Hanna was falling asleep on the way home.
Then, stopped by Target for our latest Saturday traditional post-swimming lunch. Some time back, Chunky soups were on sale at Cub, and we had got a bunch, and for most of the first session, we'd always have soup after swimming. Then, one day we were at Target and got some of their fried chicken, along with a loaf of roast garlic bread. Mmm, is that ever yummy. So, we've been doing that the last couple weeks.
Last night after supper we did something a bit different. It's been warmer here for awhile, and the snow has been melting, but was very cold the last couple days, so that all froze solid again. Plus, it was very windy yesterday and so blasted the surface of the snow into a hard smooth layer. The snow up by the house at the corner of the driveway is piled high from shoveling, so we got out the inflatable saucer thing, or whatever it is, like an innertube with the middle filled in. And John would get in, and I'd push him down and he would slide all the way across the yard to the street, where Rhonda would catch him. Hanna did that too, although I went and got the sled, as it was easier for her. Both loved that. We did that till the air ran out of that thing. Don't know if there is a leak or if it was cold.
Then, we went over to the bacon and egg place for a bit. That place was hopping with kids. We stopped at the Y before and after to get an idea of how busy it might be on a Friday night. We're planning to join eventually and would like to take the kids swimming on Friday evenings or something.
After lunch today we were doing Jericho downstairs (sing the Joshua fought the battle of Jericho song and jump on the bed), and then John laid down on the guest bed and pretended to sleep, then he sat up and said "Suddenly, one morning Kanga woke up out of bed..." ha, where did he get that? He's been making up stuff more and more lately, his own stories or songs or whatever.
John and Rhonda went by the main library branch after his lesson, and got some new books and videos. Rhonda said that library is quite big.
