The Buffet

Sunday we did our normal thing, we did think that the snow was going to keep us at home but it passed over us. Anyway, church was great, excellent sermon about caring for each other and being there in good and bad times.
After church, this older lady ask the boys and I if we would like to go to lunch. So we went to Pizza Hut for the buffet which the boys love, but in hind sight was not really a good idea for this lady. She has earring aids and they tend not to work well in loud places. It also wasn’t a very good place to hold a conversation either, so I learned a valuable lesson that day, to take the exit signs out of the building.
I sat there and worried more about her than I did about making sure I had enough to eat. I left the place hungry. She handle all of it so well though, not one complaint. Sweet lady!
Yes, the boys ate enough and enjoy it!

The Day Off

The kids didn’t have school Friday, so we decided to spend the day in St. Louis and have a fun day, we did. We got a room at a Drury Hotel, very nice! The boys like it because from 5-7pm they give free drinks and snacks, and then a free breakfast in the morning, not the usual donuts and bagels, the real stuff.

So we checked in, then we proceeded to our next destination, the batting cages. Only now do I realized how hard it is to hit a medium speed baseball, and it really hurts the hand. But the boys loved it.

Then we headed out to the hotel for the free drinks and snacks. I was disappointed that they didn’t have popcorn. The youngest was having fun playing on the elevator. Then we ended up at a dollar movie, that we were fortunate to find. We saw Ink Heart and we all enjoyed it.

I did realized something more on this trip, I really hate traffic. We don’t have traffic where we live now so what we faced in St. Louis on a Friday night was ugly! Then you have my eyes that are not what they used to be, then you have a hubby in the passenger seat who was trying to direct me, well I felt like I need a term life insurance for seniors. I did keep telling him I would be glad to allow him to drive.

We had a memorable time!
