Partying with Mumpy

Sari and Katie having been away since Wednesday (they are at Ladies retreat in Kenosse) so Megan and I have been partying.

Thursday night we went to the movie - "Hotel for Dogs". Megan was really excited about seeing it (she is a dog fan) and it was not all that bad - cute movie. Friday we went shopping, running around and visiting and then that night we went swimming. It was really nice - not too many people there. It was really cold outside and there was not much we could do outside, so it was nice to sit in the hot tub, goof around on the diving board, water slide etc. After that we went to 7-11 for Megan's first ever (though I did not know that at the time) "Big Gulp". Then home to make popcorn and just hang out.

This morning (Saturday) we made brunch and then went tobogganing for 3 hours. It was fun. We ran into our friends the Davenports over there, so I challenged their boys to go off the jumps with me, raced them down the hill, challenged them to surf their sleds, etc. I am sore tonight, but it was worth it. :) Then we came home and took Murphy for an hour long walk in the badlands behind our house. That was fun b/c the snow is so deep that he kept falling in the deep snow - 4 feet deep in some places - he had to jump to see and then he would run and fall - good times. We climbed hills - jumped off - slid down other ones - it was a good time.

So some of it cost money, but most of it was just the fun of hanging out together. We miss mom and Katie, but it is nice to have some time with just the two of us - though Megan may be happy to have mom's cooking back. ;)
