Family Day

     Today was supposed to be a family adventure day.  The plan was to go to a local amusement park where we have season passes.  We still haven't used our passes since Jim and I don't often have a week day off together.  But, southern Indiana has been in the midst of a rainy season and today is supposed to be more of the same.  Hot, humid, rainy, and lines for rides equal cranky family, so we decided to switch gears.

     We started family day last night.  Delainey's bed was drug out to the living room.  Jim took over the couch, I got comfy on the love seat.  And we started our movie marathon....our plan is to watch Harry Potter movies until we are done with them all!  I doubt we will watch all eight, but who knows!  I love the Harry Potter series...both books and movies.  I have seen and read them all multiple times.  Delainey is always leery of the movies, she is like her momma and doesn't like scary, but she suggested the movie marathon.  I am excited!

     We do need to take a movie break today to do some grocery shopping for our celebration we are having on Saturday.  And there is some house cleaning to do as well...I would hate for people to see our spare room right now (yes, it is basically a place to throw all the stuff that doesn't have a home).  Delainey has also asked for a few games to be thrown in during our movie marathon, so we will multi-task at some point.  Delainey loves playing games, but we never seem to play very often, I am not sure why that is either.

     I for one am glad for the change in plans...Jim and I have both had a busy week.  He has to work all weekend, I have to work Saturday.  We are having friends over Saturday night.  Today will be a day for recharging our batteries...relaxing, enjoying the little things in life, eating popcorn with butter, spending time together.  Sounds like a great day to me, of course, any day that I get to spend with my family is a great day!
