another busy day

what a day! nick went to best buy last night and bought a new laptop. he's been wanting to for a while, and then on tuesday the cord to plug the old laptop in broke. i got a new one, but nick was already determined. he went to best buy after the kids were in bed last night and bought this spiffy, shiny new laptop. it's a gateway. so far, so good! i like that all of the keys work properly. on the old laptop, you had to strike the N and the D really hard. and the spacebar. it was getting to be quite a pain.

so, the day had a busy start with all of us oohing and aahing over the new laptop. then eve called and asked if we wanted to go to a new indoor playground in warren, since it was raining. we did! it was great. indoor bouncies, riding toys, a playset with a slide, a toddler area, a kitchen, an amazing amount of dress-up clothes, it goes on and on but i'm getting bored of listing thigns and i'm sure you're getting the idea. wow i even type faster on the new laptop!

the girls had a great but exhausting time. maggie loved that she didn't have to get out of the bouncies (remember the damariscotta pumpkin festival? i had to go into the inflatable pumpkin and drag her out. it was a scene).

THEN we went to return our books to the library and get some new ones, then on to the grocery store for some grub for dinner. now it's 8 on friday, the kids are in bed, adn we're about to watch law and order. what a great day!
