Wii Haw

This morning was cold and windy, but at least it looked nice. Nathan was taking the Cheyenne to Muncie, and I was behind him in the Baron with my iPod plugged into the panel. He took off while I was sitting on the ramp singing to myself (I hope!) waiting for my engines to warm up so I could do my run-up, and I had to grin. He was light on fuel, had only himself on board, on a cold day with a lot of wind, and that thing took to the sky like a homesick angel. It was at 4,500' as he got to the end of the runway. Gotta love that.

Steve decided we should go to Applebees for lunch today, so he texted us all to be there at noon. Around ten after, he called me to let me know he was going to be there, but first he had to leave Culvers, where he was standing around on the phone waiting for the rest of us to show. Never mind that it was his idea to go to Applebees and he was the one who went to the wrong place. HA ha. I mean, it could happen to any of us! *cough*

Kaylee had a Thanksgiving Day party at school today, and she was out of school at 1:30 p.m. until next Monday. So after I picked her up I took her to Target to get a birthday present for a party tomorrow, which pleased her highly. She was choosing a little Tinkerbelle doll toy for herself, she had four characters to choose from, and there was only one of each for some reason. She had narrowed it down to a gold one and a blue one, when a little girl behind her said "I want the blue one Mommy! I want the blue one!" The mom told her daughter that she had to wait until Kaylee chose which one she wanted, because she was there first. Kaylee looked them both over for awhile, then she turned around and handed the blue one to the girl and said "You can have her if you want. It's okay." She told me later she'd wanted the blue one, but she felt bad taking it away from the other girl, because she did like the gold one too.

At Target, I also picked up a new Wii game-Wii Carnival. There are lots of games on there instead of just the four in the sports package, so that will give Kaylee something new to practice on and play. She liked several of them already, and a couple of them have already frustrated her. She doesn't like being told she's a "loser". I don't either, so I don't blame her. ;)
