It was pretty hot here Friday, so I decided to take the kids to the Kannapolis Splash Pad. I, myself, love that place. The kids are just in L.O.V.E. with that place. All in all.....is cheap fun!! Yeah, it's only $1 per person (if you're playing in the water...I'm always FREE!).
So as you can see, Mr. J & Ms. T had a WONDERFUL time splashing!
As a "tradition", before we leave the splash pad, we ALWAYS ride the train!
Agian, $1 per person. So our total for our time splashing and riding was only $5.
Anyhow, needless to say, the kids had a blast.
Friday was also finale night at VBS for the kids.
They were so cute.
They sang and dance. And recieved a certificate of completion.
Also, Mr. Homemaker finished his first week of work with the marketing firm he started with. He's loving it so far.
As a matter of fact, Mr. Homemakers job is why we were M.I.A. this weekend.
Friday, Mr. Homemaker informed me he'd be heading out of town state for a business trip.
He's down in Columbia, SC.
Anyhow, since we knew he was heading out of town, we tried to make as much out of our time as we could.
There were things we had to buy for him to take out of town, and we wanted to do something as a family with the kids.
We went to dinner at Applebee's with Mr. Homemaker's cousin & wife, then they came & hung out all night with us.
Sunday, we spent as much time with the kids as possible. And bless Mr. Homemakers heart, he done the housework that needed to be done before he left.
And here we are to today.
Today is was the day.
Mr. Homemaker left for SC this morning at 6:30!
It blew!! For two reasons...we've never been apart for this long, and I had to get up SUPER early to see him off.
The kids had a hard time dealing with the fact that today is Monday and daddy won't be back until Friday.
Mr. J had a crying session that lasted 1 1/2 hours this morning...because....he missed daddy!! :(
But, bible school with his friend tonight kicked that saddness out the door.
All in all, not a bad day...let's hope tomorrow goes as well!

i'm not just the cousin's wife i should be put as like BFF...haha. poor Mr. J i'm sure he did miss daddy. How did Ms. T take it?
ReplyDeleteYes, you're definately one of my BFF's! Mr. J had a HARD time dealing with the fact that daddy left and won't be home until tomorrow. Ms. T, she's like "ehh...daddy's gone". And hasn't put too much tought into it! She gets a little sad at night talking to him, but other than that she's pretty mellow about it.
