Home again

At home again.  Fall weather.  The leaves are changing colours.  Went to the new grocery store the first night home to pick up a few things for the morning.    Thought I'd also pick up the deal of the century while I was at it ... Prime Rib Roast for $4.73 a kilo.  Couldn't find any so asked the butcher.  He told me that they were sold out (even though the sale was on until the next day).  He said that they had 7 semi truck loads of Prime Rib that they brought in and all was sold.  There may be some in the load coming tomorrow but he couldn't guarantee it.  I lined up to pay for my groceries winding my way up and down 4 aisles of the pharmacy, then creeping behind the red rope and finally reaching a cashier.  The next day I went to the store to do more shopping and overheard the butcher say that,  yes, more Prime Rib came in in the morning shipment and the line up to purchase it was from the rear of the store out to the parking lot.  No thanks.  I don't want beef that much.

The next day the kids came over to my house for a sleepover.  We had fun while Brooke cleaned the her house for the shower the next day for Emily's new addition, Henrik.  

Sunday was a day of rest for me.  Then Monday came and I again had little visitors.  We were going to finger paint but they were adamant that a brush was necessary so - change of plan.  Put away the finger paints and brought out the brush paints.  And away they went creating works of art.

I'm sure you know what the end products are, but just in case you are a bit confused, the top painting is Big Bunny (Alanna's best friend) painted by Emerson and the bottom painting is Puppy, (Emerson's nighttime partner) painted by Alanna.

We ate lunch, read some stories, they had a nap (in separate rooms) then  watched Paw Patrol till Daddy came to pick them up.
