We were supposed to attend a surprise birthday party for our friend BC last night. Unfortunately it didn't happen because Mike was playing the organ for the Priesthood Leadership session of Stake Conference last night. He was supposed to be home by 5:45 and then we would head to the party, but Mike didn't get home until 6:20 and by the time we would have gotten there dinner would have been nearly over and then we would have had to turn around and go home for kids to be in bed. Emily was so devastated that Mike decided we could go out to dinner to make her feel better. He asked Emily what she wanted for dinner so we could narrow down the places to choose from and she responded with, "I want chicken nuggets." I told her no because she could have those at home, so then Mike tells her, "Choose something like steak or pasta." She couldn't decide so Mike gave her the option of Applebee's or Chili's. She chose Applebee's so off we went. Once we were there Mike was reading over the kids menu with her and telling her what there was to order. Once we he was done reading them to her he asked her what she wanted, and she replied with..."No thanks. I want the steak!" So Mike ordered a 9oz. steak that came with mashed potatoes and broccoli and Emily probably ate half his meal. This weekend has been very nice. The kids have been REAL good lately and life is just in a good spot. Knock on wood!

No more kids meals for Emily huh?? Although, I don't really blame her. The kids menu never sounds very good to me either. Glad your kids have been being good. Hope they stay good for you.
