Ramblings of a SAHM...

Usually once a week the girls and I head over to Martin's to have lunch with my mom. We all love it. The girls are always super happy to see their Grannie. They always run to her screaming " Grannie, Grannie I'm here!!!!"

They have a little routine of getting their Starbucks, whipped cream with chocolate for Kenna and just plain whipped cream for Kaira, then they get into a shopping cart and Grannie pushes them up front to help her punch out. Then back through the store...they take the elevator to the 2nd floor of the cafe and we try and get a table so we can look at the fountain.

They have started asking Grannie for coins to "buy a wish" from the fountain. So of course they each get a penny to toss into the fountain. The fountain was off yesterday. It's about time for it to be closed up for winter.

After our lunch yesterday we had lots to do! We had to go to Wal-Mart and then Target, because Wal-Mart sucked and didn't have ANYTHING cute for the girls to wear to the wedding we are going to...then we head off home. Before we got home they were both asleep.

I'm super happy the gas prices are going down! But I'm afraid the damage has been done. Our economy is in bad shape. We are super lucky that Jay has a good job and that we don't have a bunch of debt. It just annoys me that 4 years ago we had the chance to get Bush out of office and move the country in another direction and didn't. I'm happy people got out and voted for change! I have high hopes that Obama can get us going in the right direction. It's gonna take awhile to untangle the mess that has been made. It's strange people seem to think Obama is the president right now and things should start turning around...he doesn't start until 01/20/09, so let's remember that our current president is the Lame Duck. Enough of my political ramblings...check out these gas prices!!!
