Typical Fall Saturday

Now that school has started, Saturdays are a time for hanging out and relaxation. Of course, there's no time for sleeping in with Soren's dance class starting at 8:30 am. Evelyn's dance class is at 9:50 am, so we spend most of our Saturday mornings in the Creamery Building where the dance studio is (and also Ivanna Cone and a bookstore) or right outside at the Farmer's Market.


After dance, Evie and I headed to Barnes & Noble for a photo with the Cat in the Hat. The public television station took photos and will e-mail them to me, so I don't have a photo of my own to post. She had a lovely time and picked up a clearance notebook. She has already begun to fill it with little girl doodlings.


There was a Husker game on t.v., so my neighbor Ja and her grand kids came over to watch it with us. Ja doesn't have a t.v. at her house. Well, she has one that we are letting her use, but she doesn't have cable or an antenna or anything. Ja's husband Deland doesn't even like having a t.v. in the house, but Ja keeps one there for the grand kids.





The kids ate smokies, puppy chow, and other junk food. Soren calls them "pokies" instead of smokies which is unbelievably cute. And, of course, the dog is under the table clearing up any crumbs that might fall.


Of course, the kitten is still taking plenty of abuse, but she has survived her first week in the Vescapades house. No small feat, indeed.
