This has been a busy weekend. Friday night, we all went to the Komets game in Fort Wayne; it was the annual teddy bear toss. I was so proud of Missy, she picked out like 8 stuffed animals she was willig to donate for the toss. And we got quite a treat at the game, or at least part of one. We went to Fazoli's for dinner before the game and headed over. The Missouri Mavericks were the opponent, and they got the better of things early on. The scored first, but the Komets tied it up during the 1st period. After 2 periods it was 2-1 Missouri. Then in the 3rd period, it rapidly became 3-1, 4-1, and 5-1 Missouri. Then the comeback started. Down 4 with 13 minutes left (despite outshooting MO by like 45-12), the Komets scored 2 quick goals. With a couple minutes left, Beth wanted to leave to beat the traffic out since she had a craft show, We were making our way out and were in the hallway with about a minute left in the game when the Komets made it 5-4. We saw that on the monitor. But by the time we got to the car and headed out, I couldn't help but notice that nobody else was coming out. At home I learned that the Komets had tied it with 30 seconds to go, and won it about a minute into overtime. And...we missed it because of the one time in her life that Beth wanted to leave somewhere. Anyway, early the next morning Beth had a craft show to sell her soup at, at the Wawasee Middle School. Biggest craft show around. Beth made two pots of soup the night before to bring to the show, and in the process of heating the chili up in the morning (at like 4:30 am) she went upstairs for just a minute and came back to it burning on the stove. Almost in tears, she asked me to see if the chili was still any good but it tasted like an ashtray. So she had one pot of soup. We went and set up (hauled a lot of gear with us), and I stayed until the show had been open for a while before heading home. I brought the kids back at around lunchtime, they all shopped a bit and we brought Beth lunch, then we headed home again (Natalie stayed). Sales were steady all day, altogether she sold something like $450 worth of soup. She sold out of the soup that she had the crock pot full of for samples, of course. Saturday was also Natalie's birthday. She did not want us to do anything, or go anywhere, or get her anything, for her birthday. But we did anyway. She didn't want a party, but we did get her a big stuffed bear and some Ulta makeup stuff, and she went shopping there with some birthday money she got. And cheesecake. She wanted cheesecake. Also this weekend I finally got fed up with the horrible wireless connection on the Fire TV stick (we've started streaming "The Walking Dead," which we love) so I bought a new cable modem and wireless router on Amazon to replace the crap gateway I've been leasing. Now there is no video buffering and signal dropping, yay.
