CHEWELAH MUDBOGS

SATURDAY

Hubby got up early. He shot a squirrel in the circle driveway. Then I got up and he made eggs.

Hubby left at 8:00 to go down to shop to get ready for trip to Chewelah for the Mudbogs. His newest Minion, Wesley and his dad were going. Tim decided to go with them. Austin, Earl's son also showed up at the shop and invited himself along.

I stayed home with the dogs. Did laundry. Did dishes. Vacuumed basement. Took a hot bath. Exercised with weights.

The kids came over at 2:20PM. They brought me a jar full of honey & a gigantic Lipstick plant for Mother's Day.

They dropped off their clothes, computers, and Bravo. Then they went into CDA to have dinner with Matt's mom.

Kids came back at 7:00PM after picking up groceries for tomorrow's breakfast. They brought bread, bacon, and milk.

Hubby finally got home at 10:00PM. There was a fatal accident at the Chewelah Mountain Mania Mudbogs and everything had closed down at 6:30 when he was trying to leave.

Talked to the kids for a while, then went to bed at 11:30. I was exhausted.

MOTHER'S DAY

Benjamin went downstairs to wake up the kids. Matt & KRN got up at 8:00 then went to get lattes for us in Spirit Lake.

Hubby and I got up and set the table. I started to make breakfast. Had bacon, eggs, and french toast.

Kids got back and we ate breakfast.

After cleaning up, we took the dogs down to the park to walk. Hubby had to get $100 to Dell at the restaurant, so we met up with the kids in the park. Walked around the open area of the water tower. It was a nice sunny morning. Still a little cold.

When we got back, we decided to go to dinner at Olive Garden. We thought we might have to wait for 1 hour, but when we got there the wait was on 15-20 minutes. We got seated right away and had dinner. I had Tour of Italy with a couple Kahlua&Creams. Shared stuffed mushrooms with Kelsey. They were not bad! I had Chicken & Gnocchi soup.

 

We had the sampler desserts.

Bravo had stayed out in their truck. When we came out, we talked a while. Then the kids left to go home. We went over to the car wash on Kathleen to wash the Big Red Dually. Then we stopped at Lowe's to see if they had a cover for the light on the back deck which had been destroyed when Hubby dropped the window air conditioner. They had crap for choices.

We drove to Walmart and picked up groceries. I had to potty. Tummy felt bad after the lunch.

At home, hubby mowed the dog yard on the John Deere riding lawn mower. I put away groceries and prepared strawberries and cooked bacon in the microwave. I also put away clean clothes.

Hubby got done with the yard work, he had a little to eat while I had some green tea. Then we took the dogs to the park to walk again. This time we went to the shooting range. People were out for Mother's Day walking and also trying to find Mushrooms.

Driving back, hubby had forgotten money. So we came home and I got some money out of my purse. We drove back to Lil Town Market to get ice cream because hubby wanted some.

At home, we watched tv, The Good Wife, and went to bed at 10:30.
