Let's Go RVing (or maybe just window shopping)

One thing Wade and I had discussed was that since our family was going from a combined 3 jobs down to 1 job, we should have time do some things we wouldn't normally be able to do.  The RV show seemed to fit into that category.  All 3 of us had fun checking out all the RVs.  Wade decided exactly what he wanted...he wants one with a gooseneck so he could also get a new truck to pull it, a shower tall enough for him, exterior door to the bathroom, and exterior sink/grill area.  Now we just need to win the lottery so we will have the money to buy it and also be able quit our jobs so we would have time to use it.  Ethan was excited to go to the "Barbie Show"  and it didn't disappoint.  He had a blast going in and out of the RVs.  He also enjoyed a monster truck bouncy house, Lightning McQueen, Tow Mater, and a balloon artist (a very impressive artist).

 

Oh My!

Last night Wade's boss invited us to a silent auction for his son's hockey team.  Their daughter babysat for Ethan again (this time we put Ethan to bed before we left so it went a little smoother).  We had a fun evening with some of Wade's coworkers, bidding on the auction items and we even won a couple small things.  Although we didn't have much interest in the raffles for signed hockey jersey's or hockey tickets, the huge "liquor basket" did catch our eye.  We purchased $20 worth of raffle tickets and then proceeded to tell everyone how we had an empty liquor cabinet since we didn't want to deal with bringing what we had across the border.  Wade saw them drawing in the corner and watched the guy calling the cell number.  He was holding his phone waiting for it to ring and it did!  The basket ended up having 13 bottles of wine, 1 large bottle of wine, 2 bottles of champagne, and a bottle each of rum, vodka, gin, and sambuca.  Needless to say our liquor cabinet is no longer empty and we better find some friends to invite over because Wade and I don't need to drink all this ourselves.
