Sunday's Thanks

1- We all slept late today -- I'm not thrilled we missed church, but it sure was nice to wake up at 9:30

2- It rained here today. During the downpour, we all hunkered down and watched The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.

3- Our TV remote has been MIA since about four moves ago... not something we worried too much about until we watch a "dark" movie (you know... one that has night scenes, etc). The brightness was WAY too low, but without the remote I couldn't figure out how to change it. Went to Walmart today and got a universal remote in hopes it would help. Nope. Finally figured it out just fiddling with the TV itself. Now, we can actually SEE the fight scenes in Prince Caspian -- and the kids are watching it now, like it is a brand new movie! I can't wait to watch Twilight on it :-) Now to figure out how to use it with the DVD player too...

4- Bubba starts "Bug Camp" in the morning. I am making all of the kids go to bed at a normal time tonight -- means that I will hopefully be in bed before 2am... hopefully. He has to be next door (at CDC) at 0830 -- dressed and breakfasted! That is a bit earlier than our normal summer routine has us all presentable :-)

5- Got some fabric today to try and make pillowcase dresses for the girls. I didn't really know how expensive fabric is... well, the good stuff. Luckily, there was a sale going on today :-)
