We had some friends over last night for a "Fall Cookout". We all had lots of fun. Jack had some flood lights plugged in to light up the back yard and the kids played and played until late. The last family left around 12:45am...Yes, that's right...AM. I was exhausted! I think all the Maloy household was asleep by 1:00am. So, we have been moving S...L...O...W...today. After two cups of coffee I am still trying to wake up at 6pm! But...that's life...the price I pay for staying up late with friends. It was worth it. We used to always have people over for cookouts. But, we have not had cookouts like this much within the last year. I am hoping that this one will be the first of many in the months to come.
This afternoon wee were getting ready to have a late lunch when Jackson decided to tell us all a joke. Sometimes he will just rattle off something that really doesn't make sense but it is so cute to watch him laugh like crazy after he tells his joke. But, today's was a doozy. He said..."Mommy, why did the cookie go to the doctor......because he felt crummy!" I laughed SO hard. It has to be the cutest joke he has told so far. I think that sums up how we all felt today...crummy. But, not in a "sicky feeling" kind of way, but in a "I'm so tired I could go back to bed" kind of way. But, alas, our day is not done. Here in a little bit we are heading over to some friends of ours. I am sure it will be another late night. But, I love getting together with friends to laugh and have fun.
So until next time...As the cookie crumbles...so are the days of my life...
