I got tagged

Okay, Aaron's mom has been in town since Saturday. She is here to help us fix up our "old" house. Today she kept Susannah while Grace was at school so that we could drive to Wichita Falls and spend WAY too much money at Lowe's. Yah, we are going to be paying this credit card bill for quite some time, folks. We bought a tub, 12 boxes of tile (VERY heavy), and lots of light fixtures. Now, we just need to learn how to put a jetted tub in, anyone have any ideas?
Oh, Grace has been having fun with her DD (Aaron's mom.) She wants her to spank Aaron for everytime that she gets a spanking. She asked today, "DD, will you stay forever so that you can give Daddy spankings and not me?" She also convinced her that she knew how to get to Sonic. She got them to Dairy Queen, so I guess that is close enough. She did get some ice cream out of the trip. She also now calls Aaron (to his mom) "your son"...Grace told DD, "Did you know your son calls his wife, woman?" DD said, "Well, who is his wife?" Grace replies, "My mommy."....That girls is soo funny!
We leave for Vegas in just a few short days, I cannot wait to get on the plane!! Okay, my friend Reagan tagged me with this so read on, friends....
