Just the 3 of us...

Jeromy, Aurora and I.

My kids are still in California (till August), and Jeromy has Aurora this weekend. So that makes 3 of us. We had fun pretty much all day.

My day started with running 4 miles outside in the glorious sunshine!
Then I took a quick shower then we all went to the movies and watched "Despicable Me"... the minions were adorable!
After that we headed over to my mom's where Jeromy was helping my dad with some outside stuff, and they also made a late lunch for us of pork chops with gravy, salad fresh from their garden, rice and apple sauce. She also had cut up fruit with whip cream for dessert. It was great mom and dad- THANKS!!!
After that we did some major shopping! First we stopped at Dairy Queen- don't judge me!
We went to Costco to see what kind of pools they had, and of course they sold out! But I did get new glasses and sunglasses picked out! The last glasses I got are over 10 years old, and I really needed an updated pair! I had a prescription that was done thru the shipyard so that saved me $$ on the eye exam, so I just picked out some frames for regular and sunglasses, I can't wait, they'll be ready in 2 weeks!
Then we went to Kitsap Tractor and Equipment cause Jeromy wanted a really good weedwacker. He is happy, this has an extra long shaft so he doesn't have to bend over, he also got the free hat...

Then we went clothes shopping... we went a few different places... Jeromy got a new pair of shorts... see how they look just like the shorts he's wearing? I wanted to get him some fun plaid shorts or something with stripes or color or SOMETHING, and he just wanted something similar to what he already has and likes... Einstein did something like that didn't he? Wore the same clothes so all he had to think about was science?Aurora picked out some colorful shorts and a shirt...I got a comfy black sun dress and some new sports bras that are great for... *warning*-this may be too much info but keep reading if you're a female runner!!... great for avoiding chafing. I noticed that on my longer runs that some sports bras cause some serious chafing- not fun! But these ones are FABULOUS! And they had some really amazing colors!I also got some shoes, you can't tell in this picture but these shoes shimmer...We got some movies...Then we stopped at "Blenders" formerly known as "Emerald city smoothies", where they make great fruit smoothies... so good on a hot day!

Then we finally found a little pool. I want a big one but we're going to wait till we move a few years from now. So this little one will have to do. I really want it when I'm laying out on my lawn chair and I get too hot I can just dip into the little pool and cool off and then lay back out on my chair. Jeromy says I should get a floaty and float in the pool.... if I do that I'll take a picture cause that would be hysterical! Until then here's the pool!

Jeromy using his air compressor to fill it up...Aurora filling it up with water...We are all exhausted now. That was alot of shopping. We started watching the Neverending Story, but we are all so tired we had to stop half way thru it to go to bed.

But I had to make sure the people got to read this blog... man I am tired!

Good night!
