It was a great day

I took a day off work to hang out with the preteen almost a teenager.  Hubby has lots of meetings and running around to do so it just made everyone's lives easier.

First order of business, getting up at a reasonable time.  Done.  We got out the door.  Headed to a not so close mall and went to preteens current favorite place to buy jeans. They were on sale and I had an awesome coupon.  Found what she needed/wanted and were off to lunch.  We both like different things and headed off to what we each liked.  Had to stop at the scrapbook store to find some specialty paper for her science project.  Walked out with what she needed.

Then she looked at me and said the cupcake place is not to far away.  During my busy season cupcakes were delivered to us and it was heaven.  So needless to say I dragged the family out there and we have been back way too many times. We are also not helping Sherry and her family out by bringing them cupcakes every time we go.  We ran by yesterday, no extras, it was just for us. (Sorry Sherry).  I am also happy to say we got the 2 bite mini cupcakes and mine are sit sitting on the counter.

We had to make one more stop to pick up a few other things for the science project, headed home did a 15 minute clean up and then it was time.  The cricut machine got a work out yesterday.  It has been a while since it had gotten one.  It still works.  Science project is on its way to being done.  Thank goodness.

Off to water polo practice.  I still am amazed that preteen is playing water polo and that I might have at least 5 more years of sitting beside the pool.  Note to self, buy a better chair and portable heater.

Older daughter and hubby had dinner and survived.  Believe.  One day it will hopefully be better.

But all in all it was a great day!  Preteen is fun and we always have a good time together.  Love that kid!
