Quiet Thursday

I did speak with Layne and Joshua last night after their dinner.
They went to a Japanese Steakhouse - Wasabi's - for dinner.  Joshua told me about the chef juggling eggs and one landing in the chef's hat and one landing in the chef's pocket.  He also told me about the volcano and the train the chef made on the grill.  I guess shrimp have gotten a little expensive - they all had a shot to catch some rice in their mouths.
Layne proudly told me she was the only one who caught the food in her mouth.  Is there a way to capitalize on that skill?  Must think on this.....
Layne also told me that at that restaurant "everyone" int he restaurant sings Happy Birthday - even the people eating dinner.
Joshua said they came out and "beat a drum" when they sang Happy Birthday.
Grandma says the restaurant took a Polaroid picture that she will bring home.

Aunt Melanie made a yellow cake with chocolate frosting that sounds like it was perfect!

Matthew sent a couple text messages today.  He and Jacob are pretty hot out in the heat and humidity.  He and Jacob both ended up with a headache this day. It must have been pretty bad for Jacob as he actually swallowed a pill.  One text said they saw a wild rattlesnake.  Not sure if there are any "tame" rattlesnakes - but either way I am sure I would not want to see one.

I was very non-productive today.  Had my first migraine in a while.  Pretty wiped out and hoping my headache is all gone by tomorrow.

I miss my family right now.  It is very quiet. 

I know I probably shouldn't post this picture on the Internet (Layne is in her underwear).  But I love that the kids come and wave good-bye when I leave for work or have to leave without them.  I love that the last thing I see before I leave home is my kids.  Of course, most of the time it is Layne and Joshua, Jacob really likes his sleep.
