FINALLY Prepping for Laela's Bday

I’ve been procrastinating a bit on Laela’s bday party (surprise, surprise) so today, the kids and I came into the city to get a few things started at least. We met Brady and picked up a few key items that I know I’ll need, and a couple of other little essentials that were just on our grocery list like always. I wish I had made a good solid list of everything I need for every recipe, but I didn’t, so I just tried to think of my list at home. It forced me to actually make legitimate plans of the treats I want to serve. It made me more excited.

The kids asked super politely for their cookies at the bakery, and then we headed off. We picked up Brady’s saw blades from the sharpening place, and grabbed some quick supper that we just ate in the van before we rushed home to vote in time! We made it less than an hour before the polls closed, so it was quite a bit closer than we try to cut anything ever, but we made it 🙂 Got our votes in. VOTED!! In case anyone on Facebook reeeaaally wants to push anyone else about it, WE VOTED. I think the thing I’m anticipating the most about the election is Facebook getting over it. I work pretty hard to stay positive in my day, but it seems that right now, at election time, everyone is putting everyone down! Everyone hates everyone! For the record, I don’t. I really like just about everybody.

Anyway, it doesn’t sound like a busy evening, but it was. So its time for a soak in the tub and to bed for me! Tomorrow, baking begins.
