Family Day Out=Girls day and Boys day

Boyd decided he wanted to go to the motorcycle freestyle show in Salt Lake today, and Mitch really wanted to go too. So us girls thought we should have a day out too. JoLyn wanted to go to the living planet aquarium, so we all drove up, we dropped the boys off at the TRAX station and rode the train into downtown, and the girls took of to see ocean life. Well the aquarium is really cool the first time you go (last summer), but it's not as interesting the second time, so we only spent an hour, then went to the big mall that's just down the street and spent 3 hours looking at everything from the china patterns in Dillards, pretty foofoo dresses at Deb's, wild nail polish at clair's, ice cream by the carousel and finishing off the afternoon with a round of glow in the dark mini golf. Yep you heard me, glow in the dark mini golf. It was actually really fun. JoLyn and I had a fabulous day together. It's days like this that remind me that we need some one on one time with our children and all together as a family out of the house doing something fun. We've been cooped up in the house way too much this winter. Still stressing about my camera, maybe I'll just go buy a new one.

Along the same vein as timer switches are motion switches. My SIL has one in her pantry. Any time anyone steps into the pantry, the light automatically comes on. After 30 seconds of stillness, the light goes off. I think bedrooms wouldn't be a good idea because any time I rolled over in the night, the light would flip on. :)
