Denny's Disaster!

Sunday Morning.

I was so happy that Charlotte slept in til 9:30am, so I decided to take her to Denny's for a lil girl time and pancakes while Chuck caught up on some sleep. Little did I know we were going to be sitting in a booth next to my worst nightmare- An old lady with 27 cats!! TWENTY SEVEN. Her oldest cat is 22 years old. I did not even think that was possible. So while we are trying to enjoy our breakfast, this old lady is talking about her cats, her terminally ill sister, and her brother who is in a psychiatric hospital. I honestly think she should room with her brother. Should have went to Uncle Bills Pancake House instead!!

So besides this awful breakfast. Charlotte and I  have had a great weekend together. Yesterday we attempted some holiday shopping (with no luck), visited with Aunt Tiffany and her cousin Isabella,  had lunch with Grandma and Grandpa,  and followed up with more holiday shopping. When we got home Charlie let me clean the house in preparation for our holiday decorations and then we snuggled on the couch and watched Sherk 3 (for the 100th time this week!!). Today we are moving in our formal dining table out of the garage- It only makes an appearance for one month out of the year- and setting up our decorations. Hopefully we will get our tree up. BUT, this is our first time doing a real tree and I am not sure if it is still too early. I haven't seen any of the usual tree lots set up in our neighborhood yet, so that might have to wait until next weekend.

Oh! And we also got a new car this week. We traded in our Equinox for a more family friendly Pacifica. I think we are all pretty happy with the new trade, especially Charlotte. She LOVES her new dvd player. Although, now I am losing that much needed car nap since she is GLUED to the tv :(  Most of our cartoon/pixar movies are taped on our DVR so we made a special trip to Target to purchase some movies for the car. So far we have watched Little Rascals and the Cat in the Hat. I am sure Santa will have to add movies to her Christmas list. ;)
