I had a very productive weekend this week.  On Thursday my wife and I along with the munchkins went to my in-law’s house for dinner.  It was a lovely dinner with the in-laws and I am truly grateful that they are as close to us as they are as they help us out tremendously.

On Friday my wife got up early and went to Target and a few other places early.  Once she get back to the house I got my ass out of bed (baby slept in) and went and did my shopping.  I hit Best Buy, Kohl’s, Target, the mall, and Costco.  I can say that my Christmas shopping is 95% done.  Just have to get a few odds and ends and I already know what that is so I might just order it all online.

Saturday me and the wife went out and about and ran a few errands then took the baby over to the in-laws so we could go out.  Back in March I bought my wife some tickets to the Celine Dion concert for her birthday.  I was really counting on being deployed, but that didn’t happen.  So I had to sit through 3 hours of Celine Dion.  All in all the show wasn’t that bad but I am still not a Celine fan.

Sunday was a day that we were both able to sleep in as the kids were at gramma’s house and no one woe us up.  I spent the first part of the morning folding some clothes ad doing some laundry.  I then went out and did the weekly ritual of getting my haircut.  Ran to Wal-Mart for some stuff for my classic car then went and picked up the kids.

I got the old car running this afternoon and took her out to get a bath.  Once I got her all cleaned up and fueled up I came home and applied a nice coat of wax.  She is looking good and hopefully one of these days I will have the money to fix her up and make her all pretty (my wife needs to graduate and get a job).  Now I just have to get my bags packed for another two week trip out to 29 Palms.
