Monkey Excursions

Confession: I'm skipping over every Valentine's Day decoration/card making post that I come across. I know I'll feel inspired, then just as quickly overwhelmed when I realize that I can't do it or it's not as easy as I was expecting. So. I'll just ignore them this year. Maybe next year I'll be able to pull off the whole she-bang.

Confession #2: Today was tough, and all I want to do is sit on the love seat, read blogs, read my book on kindle, and watch tv. What I need to be doing? Packing for the weekend. AGH. I hate packing ahead of time because there is always something that I have to pack in the morning so it never seems worth it. 

On to the fun stuff...

Last week, we as a little family of four got to go see the coolest thing ever. George! Oh, you don't know which George I'm referring to? Curious George of course. This monkey is the best thing that has ever happened to our girl Jo and when I found out that he was visiting the local library, I knew we had to go. We hyped it up pretty big before getting there, so the minute we walked in (the story had already started...oops!), she was captivated.

After the story was done, everyone got in line to take pictures with the celebrity, George. We chose to just read stories until the line died down. Good choice. Jo loves the books, the library, the monkey - this was the best night of her life!

Let's just pretend that I have make up on, have showered recently, and hubby has not worked a super long week... we were a little ragged by this point... but it was worth it for the experience. Jo really did love it. 

Captivating.
