And Girlie week comes to an end

We've had a good time, but we're all three ready for Kevin to come home.  He'll be here before noon tomorrow.  Today, we had one last hoorah

Tara left around 1:30, and the girls finally showered.  (Yes, that was the smell coming from West Central Missouri.)  We decided to head to nearby Bates City BBQ for dinner, so I called my friend Missy to see if she wanted to go.  She met us there.

Bates City BBQ is extremely yummy, and not the least bit healthy.  Perfect.  We ordered, and they started handing food over the counter to us.  That's when I realized that I didn't have the checkbook, or enough cash.  Bates City BBQ doesn't take debit cards.

Fortunately, Missy had enough cash to cover our dinner.  We ate too much, then I told Missy I'd go get $$$ out of the ATM, and bring it to her house.  We did, after stopping at Quik Trip for a cappuccino.  Yummy.  The girls actually had hot chocolate.

At Missy's, we visited for a bit, and the girls played with her dogs.  She has a lot of dogs!  I finally announced that we had to get home and do some laundry.  The girls are out of underwear!  ACK!

Coming back into town, we saw that the school carnival was in full swing.  With the snow days Thursday and Friday, we had forgotten.  We went in and hung out for about an hour.  The girls had fun.  They got thrown into jail, and paid two tickets each to have friends thrown in.  You could bail yourself or someone else out with another two tickets.

Now, we're back home, each under a blanket in a different room, with three different TV shows going.  LOL  Natalie's watching "Suite Life of Zach and Cody", Monica's watching "Goosbumps" and I'm watching COPS, flipping occasionally to ESPN to see that it is STILL raining in Southern California, and the race isn't being run.

I hope it doesn't rain ou tomorrow's race.  Pam?  Is it going to rain there tomorrow?  LOL
