Day 9 Battleship With Dinner?

March 24, 1989

"Dear Diary,
I went with the Spanish Club to Don Quixote restaurant, it was good, and a lot of fun!"

Dear Jennifer,

Yesterday was a day of many firsts for me.  My handsome son crawled into the car with me first thing in the morning.  When my kids were little and my husband was working two jobs, we would make a once a month outing to go get bagels.  Well, it's been quite a few years, so today we went and got bagels.  This time, my handsome husband was able to join us.(Revisited Old Thing!)  We brought them home and asked each other how our day was.  This is truly one of my favorite parts of the day, breakfast or dinner, especially when we can all sit down and talk.  It reminds me of our family dinners growing up.  One in specific where you were trying to teach me to count in Spanish. I just remember when you taught me the phrase "El Burro Sabe Mas Que tu" I thought it was so cool, until I found out you were comparing my intelligence to a donkey. :( (Then you backtracked and said that is how you remembered your vowels in spanish.)

After breakfast,  we looked at the wall in my kitchen.  My husband had built a bench but the dogs were jumping on it and barking at our neighbors.  He finally ripped it down and asked what I wanted there...

"A baking area!"

So off to Ikea, the land of no return without something you know you can't live without.... and voila! My handsome husband built me a baking station. (New Thing!)

While my daughter was busy cleaning out a shelf, she did find all my Sims stuff from when I beta tested Sims Online, as well as all my SIMS 2.  Needless to say, she spent the night and grandma's and she is going to have a whole different town she is moving in to. (Insert evil laugh)

After dropping the kids off, my husband and I decided to eat dinner at a bakery.  It is a Canadian bakery that served some amazing food.  That wasn't the charm of it, the charm of it was that my husband and I got in a heated battle of Battleship.  A little kiddo came over and started helping my husband after looking at my board, so I don't consider it a true win. ;)

Until tomorrow...
