Excellent Weekend!!

I have had the pleasure of having Cameron, Dondra's boy, for the weekend. Friday night I picked him up from his house and on the way home he bought me dinner. Sweet huh, take note men, he's nine and already knows how to act like a gentleman. Then we stopped and got a video, "Star Kid" (cute little movie), and a video game for the playstation, "Monster's INC" (excellent fun). We chilled out the rest of the evening into the night watching video's and playing games. Sent him off to bed, which I guess was the ultimate because he got to sleep in my room. Tried to sleep myself but did really get much rest. Saturday morning we got up and played games and ate scrambled eggs in our pajama's. Around 10:00am we decided that we had better get bundled up and take Abbie to the doggie park. When we got to the park all the other dog owner's there were grabing thier dog's and leaving. I can't say that I blame them it was 19 degrees and the wind was blowing so it was like -50 degrees out there. Well since Cameron is a kid and Abbie is a dog neither of them noticed the cold and ran thier little butts off. After about 15 minutes, Ruthie (Abbie's little doggie friend), showed up with owners in tow. Slowly after that it began to pick up. After about an hour, Abbie began to slow down. After an hour and a half she was begging to leave. I guess the cold caught up with her. By that time I had no ears, my toes were killing me, and all three of us were coated in mud, although Abbie was definatly the worse. I could have sworn I had a YELLOW Lab not a Black one. Home we went. Washed the dog. Dog and Grace crashed on the couch while Cameron went right back into playing video games. Wish I could have that energy. Trina bought us all Chinese food for dinner, which is one of Cameron's and my favorites. After that Cameron and I watched the football games, WOOWOO RAIDER'S, and played Pokemon. After 5 hours of Pokemon it was time to call it a night. This morning Cameron woke up early, snuck him and Abbie downstairs, took her outside and played for awhile. Good kid!! He's in playing games and I'm in typing. I think I will shove food down his throat now. He keeps saying he's not hungery. I think he is but he doesn't want to have to go home after breakfast. Sorry kid.

Get a nine year old for a weekend. They aren't too bad to have and they seem to forget that you are ancient.
