This week the kids had a blast at Vacation Bible School at The Covenant Church here in town. Paige's kindergarten teacher's husband is the Pastor there. Simon was just under the age that it started at but they only had a couple kids in his class the first day so they offered to let him go too. It worked out that Paige's class was taught by Mrs. McRostie (her kindergarten teacher) so she was very comfortable right from the start. Not to mention 4 of the kids were from her class at school. Then one day afterwards some of us took the kids to a park here in town for lunch which was fun. So, Nixon and I had a couple hours each day just the two of us. I got my floors mopped and two of my bathrooms completely cleaned!!! As I am writing this it is Saturday and we went down to Ferndale, a little Victorian town just south of us, for their farmers market. When we got there we discovered there were only 2 booths selling things and then two girls with a box of free kittens. Needless to say Paige really liked the kittens. I have to admit they were cute and tempting. I told Paige if something ever happens to Macey (our psycho cat as we call her) she can pick out a new cat. We decided to walk through some of the cute little shops in Ferndale. There was one that was set up like an old time store. It was so cool it even had an upstairs with a museum set up with all the different types of shops you would find a hundred years ago. Then we came back to Eureka to the library to watch a marionette puppet show. The weather has been awesome here so we have enjoyed being outside all week! I already need a new bottle of sunblock! Simon doesn't like it on his face he says EWWWW not the face stuff please not the face stuff! Well there is still more sun to be soaked up and enjoyed so off to play we go.
