Saturday

For the first time in, oh…. say….,months, I am alone.  I’m on the couch, with a cup of coffee, watching Dirty Dancing on ABC Family, (and blogging a bit, of course).  It is FABULOUS!  We had a great day at the Hartsville Downtown Open Marketplace this morning and even entered Emmie in a dog show!  She didn’t win, but she surprised us and behaved very well.  I can’t say the same for our girls. We ate lunch and went driving through town with the windows down to gather up a few of Mel’s  remaining campaign signs.  It has been a great Fall day.

McCanless begged all afternoon to have a sleep over party, and after I refused, Mel gave in to her whining and offered a girls’ movie night.  (He can’t help himself.  He LOVES to entertain McCanless and all of her girlfriends.)  McCanless dressed in her coolest outfit, they grabbed a few Miley CDs, picked up four more girls and took off in the limo.  Mary Clare even got to tag along this time, much to McCanless’ dismay.  (I’m waiting on the call to come get her any minute now.) The only movie playing was, “A Christmas Carol,” but that doesn’t really matter, I think they all love the limo, loud music and silly Daddy most of all.  Mel may be a great businessman, funeral director and mayor extraordinaire, but his best roles are my sweet hubby and Daddy!
