Waiting in the Parking Lot

Posted on Saturday, January 17th, 2009 at 11:40 pm

My father-in-law had an auction today up in Okemos.  We wanted to get together for Savannah’s birthday, so we drove up there to meet him.  When we got there, I waited a while in the car with Jasmin and Karson.  Savannah and Max were in Uncle Kevin’s car.  We had to wait because the auction hadn’t quite ended yet.  I sat and drew this picture while Karson played his DS and Jasmin ate Cheerios. She started getting fussy after a while, so I got her out of her carseat and she sat next to me and added her own personal touch to my journal page…her side didn’t make it into the picture, but you can see she contributed to my drawing, too.  After a while, we went inside.  We had brought our camera and a tripod to take a family picture since Sam’s sisters’ families were there too.  After that we headed over to Cracker Barrel for dinner.  We stopped and got the boys some DS cases and also so Savannah could spend her gift card from Grandpa…and then we headed home.  It was really bad weather and took us a while.  The snow kept freezing on the windshield.  I am glad I didn’t have to be the one driving!

    Julie,
    I’m so glad I checked your website tonight and it was nice reading and seeing your drawings. Last time I checked you hadn’t written since Jan. 11th. I’m glad you had a break with school off. It is nice to just hang out with the kids sometimes and sleep in if you want. I’m glad you got home ok from being with Art. I think you got more snow, but we are getting more tonight. We must have about 24inches by now. It isn’t melting off. It has been down to 18 below. Today it got up to 12 and that is a heat wave. Ha. Keep drawing, We love seeing your art!!!
    Happy 9th Birthday Savannah!
