it's saturday. for some reason we were all ready to go at a stupid hour of the morning. mom and i drove dad down to work and dropped him off for the day. bye dad. see you later. mom drove me out to the middle of no where. we went to an estate sale. that's kind of like a yardsale but fancier and you get to walk around inside the house. we poked around this house. there really wasn't much to look at. mom found a few mixing bowls so she was happy. i didn't find anything i was looking for. we got back in the car and drove home again.
we didn't stay home long. mom chased me out the door again and we went to some kid's art sale. what? i don't know. mom said there would be fun stuff for kids to do and that's enough for me. we got to the event and parking was a bit of a nightmare but we found a spot.
got out of the car and walked around. there were a million kids all running around and different booths to visit. at the first table i got to color a picture and then the man turned it into a huge badge. i pinned it to my shirt. cool. each table was giving out trinkets or pamphlets or letting kids do crafty things. there was lots to see. i made a few drawings. i got a balloon sword from the balloon animal man. i did the hula hoops, trickier than you'd think. highlight of the day was getting a mago lime snow cone. mom and i sat and shared it. oh man, so tasty. i love snow cones. there were some bunnies to pet but i wasn't interested in that. i saw some goats and sheep too at the petting zoo. there were also a couple of very silly looking chickens. i watched them scratch in the grass, clucking. chickens are funny.
i'm pretty sure mom and i saw everything at least twice. i probably could have stayed longer but mom said it was time to go. ok. we got back in the car and went home for lunch. whoo-hoo, lunch. mom made me a fruit smoothie. it was awesome.
dad called to say his bus never showed up so mom and i went to pick him up. hi dad. it was decided we should go out for dinner, so off we went. it is dad's day to pick the restaurant so we ended  up at sonny's for bbq. awesome. i ordered a basket of fries and an orange soda from the waitress. mom and dad got some food too. it was a nice night out. on the way home we stopped at walmart for some stuff.
now we're home and i'm going to watch a bit of tv with dad before bed
