Today's photo: Jace trying to grab the camera
Well, the traveling continues for Joel. He was home one day and then left for Gillette, WY today. This will be a short trip so we are looking forward to some time together at home later this week. He really appreciates how nice WY is after his trips to El Paso.
Jace and I returned from Wray yesterday. Our family spent the evening enjoying the 81st Academy Awards. I am a little bummed that I have not hosted an Oscar party the last 2 years. I really miss it. Maybe next year I will figure out a way to start the tradition again. Also this year for the obvious reason (Jace) Joel & I have only managed to see 2 of the best picture noms. That is unheard of for me and I will absolutely do better in the future. Hear that Jace, Mommy needs to see some movies at the theatre!
Today was a pretty normal Monday. Jace & I spent most of the day at home. Tonight we are at Palmer's for our family dinner night. If Joel was here things would be great. Jace impressed everyone here with his new clapping skills. He has a unique style of clapping with one hand open and one in a fist. He showed off at dinner and had the rest of the family clapping along with him. He did some walking around with the help of his cousins. After dinner it got pretty quiet, with Jace going to bed and others enjoying a card game. We are all looking forward to the start of the Dancing with the Stars season in a couple weeks. The show was the reason we started the Monday, family dinner tradition. When it starts our Monday evenings will get rowdier.
I forgot to post the photo I took of my parent's bathroom under construction. They started demo this past week and found layers of old remodels. There were weird things like sheet rock over tile and empty spaces where old decor was just hidden. My parents are still trying to decide on some of the details of the new room. I can't wait to see how it will look finished
