Today was my second fantasy football draft day. No big prizes in the draft since this is another keeper year, but I did keep Rivers and Jones-Drew so I'm pretty set. I think the team is ok. Everyone in the house has a wee cold this weekend, so we skipped church this morning, but mostly it was because we were all tired. Yesterday was date night, but we didn't have anything we wanted to go see so we punted. Dinner and clothes shopping (I found some killer deals on the clearance racks at Elder-Beerman...even on Columbia stuff!) followed by spending a few bucks at Tokens & Tickets. Never played pinball on a date before. Earlier in the day we had taken the kids out bowling (they've been asking to go for a while) and we got the paint and ordered the wallpaper for redecorating Missy's room. She also got a new ceiling fan, not as much because she needed one but because she found one she really really really liked and she looked at me with the cutest 'please Daddy?' look I've ever seen. Well, maybe she did need a new ceiling fan after all. Anyway, Friday night there was banjo music in the park! The...I forget...Hoosier Banjo Society or something like that was performing in Central Park, so we went with the kids. The did the old standards like Bill Bailey and the like. The Myers girls also went with us, so the kids had something to do (we brought kites too, which they failed to fly very much). Mostly the kids all ran around together playing. Thursday night, I let the kids paint in the garage, on the old closet doors again. What a mess.
