Erin went to a meeting last night, so the kids and I hung out for the evening. Julia was strangely distraught over Erin’s disappearance, so we didn’t do much besides watch TV and play “tent” under a blanket. “Tent” is a peek-a-boo variant that Julia loves. We were playing with a crocheted blanket, so often she’d leave the blanket on her head for a while, watching TV through the holes in the blanket, giggling.

I think we’re planning on going out to Pike Lake on Saturday for a picnic lunch/afternoon at the beach. It’s still up in the air a bit, because I think we’re also planning on doing the Exhibition/midway at some point, but we haven’t hammered out any details on when we’ll do that either.
