Last night was nice. It was the area minister's Christmas dinner. We went to Dave & Buster's. If you haven't heard of it, it's one of those "Chuck E. Cheese" for adults. We had a nice dinner and then went in to play games. I basically spent my time at those machines where you drop the token in and the blade pushes them out and they just hang on the edge forever before they fall. I got the boys a bubble machine with my "winnings." Our babysitters were overworked for the evening, but I think it went a lot better than it could have been. Our boys were both here as well as Greg and Melanie's two little ones. Their youngest, Ada, has NEVER stayed with a sitter that she didn't scream for most of the time. In fact, she's just now staying in the nursery at church some without her parents. I think it ended up being Caden who caused the most problem though because he didn't sleep for long and I'm not sure how well he ate. Oh well, they were all alive and the babysitters were still able to smile as they left, so I have to figure that things went OK at least.

Today I don't have much on the agenda except for keeping Nina and getting her to dance. Tomorrow Johnny and Luke are planning to go fishing - those days are rough on me because he's gone from about 4 am until about 10 pm. Friday is my last day with Nina until after New Year and if Johnny is done with the sermon by Saturday I might get to go shopping a little.
