Oh we had a sad little Friday. So . . . it was VBS week which includes a great pizza.pool party on friday only we forgot and made plans to visit/sleepover with some friends of ours that we haven't seen in forever. We cancelled on the vbs party and got looks like aren't we antisocial. Anyway, come home, eat lunch, wait for the appointed time and get a phone call. From our friend. Seems little K- has been vomiting since last night. Now, my rational son was ready with the "solution" - "I don't mind getting sick, mom." right. Not wanting to risk the baby getting the stomach flu - never mind I don't want it either!!! - we cancelled the sleepover. Fireworks and tears overflowed. I finally had to distract Henry with some fun Star Trek sound bytes from this site. Check out the techno-funk dance version of the TNG theme music. What a riot! Make it so. Anyway, so my dh feeling bad for the kids, promises a fun family nite. 6:30 rolls around, dh comes home from work, and we get a call. Two of the kids' cousins are having their confirmation tonite. Right. 30 minutes to get dinner on the table and 2 sweaty kids, one fussy baby, and one frazzled housewife ready for church. After much argumentation, dh goes by himself, begrudgingly. Tries to go for ice cream with the kids after - lines out the doors. Seems like everyone had the same great idea. And Henry missed his new favorite show in the process, Stargate. Yikes. How did we create such a sci-fi hound?

So we went today for movies and ice cream. Much less eventful day. Lilo & Stitch was cute. Ice cream at the Cold Stone Creamery was better.
