Kaylin and Renn take refuge here

Saturday I woke up without a headache or sore eyes - bonus. Kaylin called me to ask how I was feeling and if I was feeling better enough to let her and Renn come over and stay for a while. She’s been a mess, and Nathan needs some time to heal. Of course, I said come on out. S started his day with a bowl of oatmeal and a cup of coffee. I had a coffee too, as we tidied up the house. He vacuumed up all the stuffing from the destroyed stuffed animals. We moved the kitchen out of the way so that little Miss could see it, and she did once they arrived after 12. I put soup bones on the stove.

It was the most exciting gift! S and K worked to install the 12 batteries for water, microwave and burner sounds. Brittany was out to feed and visit for a while. She also took the bundled Renn out to see the horses. Once she returned, I took Renn down to Kaylin’s bed, and they both had a nap. Before 2, B headed home. S was in the bedroom, stretched out, watching the junior games and feeling achy again. I lay down too. When Renn woke up from her nap, she was eager to cook.

Chef Renn haș a TV in her kitchen too, Harley supervises

Harley really wants to play with Renn

I made the beef noodle soup which was enjoyed  by most but I only had a small amount. There was more hockey on the TV for S with the girls and I heading to bed at 9. S watched hockey and ate more sandwiches not going to bed till almost 11.

The house remained quiet until after 9 p.m. on Sunday. Har requested breakfast, as did the cats. S woke up later than usual and had to rush to get to church on time. The girls had yogurt and berries, while I made K a cup of coffee. They then took a shower to clean up. Afterward, it was playtime. I sent K to get a nap in  while Renn and I watched TV.

S returned home from church, dropped off the missed parcels to go to Oyen with Craig and grabbed some groceries. However, he realized that he wasn’t feeling as well as he had thought he was during church. Meanwhile, Britt was out, and S was busy putting bacon in the oven for lunch. After having a BT sandwich, he decided to take a nap. I, on the other hand, had eaten half a sandwich and felt a sense of relief after finally eating. B took Renn out for a walk with the dogs, which made her day. Afterward, it was time for Renn’s nap, and I followed suit. B, meanwhile, relaxed on the couch until Renn woke up an hour later. They spent the rest of the afternoon playing kitchen until B headed home before 4 p.m.

opening the kennel to pet her friend Harley

The 4 of us relaxed in bed watching an hour Christmas show before we made supper. S cooked his KD special and I cooked up ground beef to mix with it for the adult plates. Again it was good to eat. S washed up the pots and hit the sheets to watch hockey while K and I were entertained by Renn. It was another night with us watching some Netflix once in bed. Renn had different plans waking from 10-1 crying to go upstairs to see Nana. I did not hear her.

She fits in the fridge the little pixie!!
