We were all planning to go to visit my parents and siblings this weekend...until yesterday. Arthur found out he'll have to work because they are now very busy and his boss will be out of town all weekend. :( I was pretty bummed yesterday about that. I like when we can all go for the weekend to my parents'. And I really dislike being away from him overnight with the girls. It's tiring. BUT, we really want to see my sister and her family since they'll be in from Iowa.
I still need to pack everyone's clothes today, as well as load the car. I plan to leave with the girls first thing in the morning, probably about the same time Arthur will leave for work. I like getting there early, so I don't feel like I wasted any part of the day. Plus, they get up later over there, so by the time we get there they should be getting up. Since we're early risers, might as well spend that time driving!
I have the leftover cinnamon rolls from yesterday to take. I think I have 9 of them left...and they're huge, so hopefully there will be enough to go around. I am also going to take the rest of the english muffins after we eat some for breakfast here at home tomorrow. I wanted to make the peanut butter cornflake cookies, too, but I will wait until the necessary checklist items are done - like packing! - before I start that.
Tonight, I plan on trying out a new recipe, Three Bean Chili Chowder. I'll post the recipe over the weekend or Monday if I decide we like it. It looks tasty, though! (I think I say that about everything!!)
I wasted some time this morning lying around in my pajamas, and then I remembered I needed to go over to church to find my camera that I left yesterday in the preschool. So, we went over there quickly and took some of the chocolate chip cookie bars we made last night to give to the secretary and whoever else was going to be in the office today. Thankfully, my camera was right where I left it; I feared that Addy might have moved it without me knowing...since I didn't even realize I had left it anywhere until last night!
Hopefully the weather cooperates for us to drive this weekend, and I am hoping Arthur's weekend at work isn't too stressful and goes quickly. He is going to stay at his parents' house tomorrow night, rather than drive all the way home at whatever time he finally gets done at work. I really don't like that he will be working 12 days in a row now, until his next day off. :( I plan to pick up a movie this afternoon, so we can snuggle and enjoy a quiet evening before the busy weekend!
