we realized that Patch had to be home for his meds. What a cramp in our plans!
So Chris and I split up. He got the biggins and I got the littles.
Patch, Lexi and I went to see Yogi Bear at the dollar theater. Let me tell you, it was not a dollar. It was showing in 3D so we had to pay extra and our cheap little date ended up 3x's what I was expecting. No worries, to hear their laughs through out the movie was totally worth it.
Our next stop was to Costco. It's funny because my kids think this is a great place to go, so it was on target as a date place to stop. We always end up spending way too much when the kids come and of course they suckered me into getting more snacks than I planned on. Again, worth it to see their smiles.
On the way home we stopped for dinner at McDonald's and I promised the kids a picnic on my bedroom floor while they watched Tangled. They thought this was the coolest thing ever. They are so easy to please!
While they ate and watched their show, I sat in peace and quiet and caught the last half of biggest loser. It's funny that I was downing a quarter pounder w/ cheese while I'm watching a weight loss show. I was definitely feeling guilty.
Now their show is over and it's bed time. What a perfect night!

I love that you were downing a QP with cheese while watching Loser! So funny. I was eating Haagan Daaz Chocolate Peanut Butter ice cream, but I only had 5 bites so it lessened the guilt a little. :) Glad Patch is doing better, and it sounds like you had a fun date.
We love Boondocks, but we don't go there often enough.. And we still love the movies and a dinner on our family room floor! That such a great moment for you and your littles...
You guys needed a great night after all of those really long stressful ones.
