Today was Ashlyn's last day home before her first day of school. Lucky for her, neither mommy or daddy had to work today! Unfortunately mommy and daddy spent most of the morning cleaning the house. We are trying to get ready for colder weather. I can't believe it is already time to think about colder weather, so depressing! Josh and I finally bought blinds to cover-up our back sliding door. Now I don't have to worry about any peeping tom's looking through our back door, I am sure there was never anybody looking anyways! I also cleaned my windows, my grandma would be so proud of me!
While Josh and I trimmed the bushes in the front yard, Ashlyn played with two neighborhood children from up the road. It was great to have her occupied while we did yard work, until she wiped out running down the drive-way. I think the child has two left feet, but it's not her fault I do believe she inherited that from me! The poor kid scraped up both her knees. I guess she won't be wearing pants on her first day of school!
To make up for her scraped knees, Laura and I decided to take Ashlyn and Evan and get pedicures while the boys once again went golfing. Of course Evan didn't get his nails or toes done, but he was a perfect angel while we pampered ourselves. Laura and I got pedicures and Ashlyn got to pick out a color to get her nails and toes painted. She originally picked Christmas red with gold sparkles, but Laura and I pointed her in the direction of a more appropriate color. She told me when we got home, "Mommy that place was amazing!" I do believe she might be high maintenance.
When we got home Ashlyn fed Evan, which she loves doing, while Laura warmed up some bean soup she had made for supper. The bean soup was delicious! We had to come early tonight so that Ashlyn could get ready for her first day of school. I think she is excited, no complaints about a bath, getting her hair brushed, or brushing her teeth. We quickly picked out her first day of school outfit, which she liked tonight we will see if she still likes it in the morning. Pray for a smooth first day of school! I am going to go to bed now, unfortunately school means I have to get up early too!
