Things that bring me joy---McDonalds monopoly game

I admit it I am a sucker for those little monopoly pieces. I collect them every year and I am totally suckered into getting the bigger fries and drinks,etc in order to get more of them. I don't know how many years they have been doing it but every year I collect the pieces like I am gonna win big. I even had a mcskillet burrito today (which I hate and had probably a zillion calories) in order to get more pieces. Anyway, I am lovin it...

Racine Children's Theater Play

Yesterday we saw the new Racine Theater Children's play. It was based on a Kevin Henkes book. It was one of the best ones I have seen. Anyone else go?

Starbucks-hot chocolate

Oh my goodness. I had a free sample of the new hot chocolate at Starbucks. It was so good. It taste like I was eating a chocolate bar. They have different flavors that I am definitely gonna try!

Come take a load off

On my new couch...I have to share another Mason story...

Darren saw him jumping on my new couch so he said he needed to clean it with the special cleaner as a punishment. Afterwards Darren asked him where he thought all the dirt came from and he said "From us and all the people that come lay on it naked."

As if people just come in off the street and sit on our new couch naked. Just so you know we don't sit on the couch naked and if we have you over, you can take your shoes off but keep on your clothes please!
