The day after....

I didn't think I'd be blogging today, but then I forgot we were getting Aurora and that is definitely a picture worthy event!!!
Well we all slept really good last night after our long day. When we got up this morning, 3 out of 4 of us exercised, Jade started on the elliptical, then she took a picture of Jeromy and I doing our work out.
Then we were on our way to get Aurora. When we picked her up, she had a tray of cookies her grandma had made, she made that 7 layer dessert you make mom, it is so yummy!!Then we had been planned on going to the Japanese steak house again!!! This place is great, but I think the one in Tuckwilla is better, maybe we'll go for my birthday... I wanted to get a picture when he did the flames, but I wasn't quick enough... anyway, here's some pictures of our dinner... this restaurant is where your chairs are in a circle around a grill, and the cook prepares your food right in front of you... so cool...

And here's what my dinner looked like... Fillet Mignon (sp?) we're talking some yummy food...Then we did some serious shopping. The kids had some gift cards to use... here's what Aurora got... thanks grandma and grandpa Drydale...Jade's stash, she also had other gift cards she added together to get all this stuff....And Kenton got 2 new nunchucks for his WII. He also wanted a game but they had sold out. Well tomorrow is another day. And we were tired of shopping.Then we got home and Aurora had to get her stocking stuffers opened...Another scarf I made for Aurora, she had picked out this yarn a while ago, so I knew she'd love it...OK, we did make one more kinda large purchase... we got a new computer. Jeromy has his own business computer up stairs, but the computer the kids and I use was kinda falling apart. So the kids were so excited that we were getting a new one. The opening of the first box, this is exciting people....Aurora's new puppy was trying to help...OOOhhhhh, pretty computer, Jeromy was trying to get our Internet to run to the new computer. Spoken in the narrating voice from sponge bob:

Two hours later...

Well, he gave it a great effort. If it were me, the computer would still be in the box!!!

Anyway a couple of cute girls...

And their new slippers...ya, I know these blogs have been full of pictures the last few days, but soo much has been going on. They'll probably slow down here in a few days. But be prepared for New Years Eve, we are going to have a house full of (great & responsible) teenagers. So some cool pictures to come!

Katie OUT!!

Love all the pictures - you can't post too many as far as I'm concerned. How exciting to get a new computer. That dinner looked fabulous. Dad and I will have to go with you sometime.
