This is my second attempt at posting this blog. The last time the PC died while I was previewing it.

Well Wednesday was quite uneventful as David was still feeling quite sick, so we spent the day at home. This was not good for Dana since David did not want to have anything to do with anyone else but her. Dana and David went to the doctor and I parented Daniel. During nap time I went and got a hair cut and went swimming in the pool. The pool tyrant yelled at us for not showering, then jumping in the water and then Shawn was touching the rope that divides the deep end from the shallow end and she said if he breaks the inch thick rope she would have to shut the pool down, she is a bit of a Psycho!
We were invited over to Ron and Cathrina's house for supper, I was hoping for Enchiladas (they were delicious!), but we were surprised with an awesome turkey dinner. Unfortunately, the boys needed to go home to bed and Dana let me stay out late so we spent the rest of the night playing horseshoes. I will be installing a pit in the backyard in Richmond to practice up for next year.

Thursday we decided to head to the Ellenton factory outlets to do some shopping, the unfortunate part was that our credit card's magnetic strip is almost wornout from all the shopping we have been doing. Perhaps that is a good thing. Nothing was bought at less than 70% off. I bought a few shirts for $4.90. From there Julie and shawn headed off to Tampa to wacth the Sens and Lightning play.

When we arrived home Ron and Cathrina informed us there was a coconut tree on the table in the back. Sure enough when we looked out the window, there was the elusive coconut tree I have been looking for. They told us there were 2 more at Home depot across the street if we wanted more. I wanted to plant 2 coconut trees to represent David and Daniel, so I headed over to Home Depot and picked one up. I will be planting them on Saturday, I just need to confirm the location with the owner of the house :)

Today we will be heading to Busch Gardens to check it out. I have been preparing my liver for the past month, in case you did not know included in the admission to the park is free Busch (my favorite) beer.
