Best Husband in the world!

Sorry I've been lacking on the blogging...nothing new has been going on though. We finally got the evaporative cooler in. YEAH! (Thanks to Jon for that). The boys (and me too I suppose) have not been quite so cranky today...I suppose part of that has to do with the house not being so dang HOT! Well that and Jon taking the boys so I could sleep. I have the greatest husband in the world (I don't care what anyone else says...if you want to believe that your husband is better, I will let you think that...but I know the truth). ;) I think we need to work on our communication skills though. Last night Jon was finishing putting the cooler up, so after that was done he showed me how to hook up the new tractor for our water. Then I was getting tired so I decided that I would go and read my book while I waited for Jon to come to bed. Not long after I got into bed, Jon came down and said "I need to go shut the water off." but sounded to me like he wasn't ready to go to bed. So I told him to take his time, I didn't want him to feel like I was rushing him. So he went and shut the water off. Then I kept waiting and waiting. I went to see why he hadn't come to bed yet and he was up playing solitaire. So I decided that I would read a few more chapters. Then I went back up stairs and he was playing his Starcraft. So I was like "Alright, I suppose I can read a few more chapters." Then I looked at the clock and it was 3:30 AM. So I decided that I was going to go to bed whether he was with me or not. About 4:00 he came to bed. And then this morning I found out that he was doing all of the gaming and dishes and cleaning to pass the time because he thought I wanted to read and he was waiting for me to finish. Maybe if we both hadn't been so patient with the other we could have gotten to bed at a decent hour. LOL. So this morning (I don't have a clue what time) Jon got up and changed Justin and got the other boys changed and fed and the upstairs all cleaned so that I could sleep until a ridiculous hour. Then he finally got a nap himself. He's the greatest because he didn't get to sleep early either but he let me sleep as long as I wanted and kept the boys quiet (which is a feat in and of itself). But that's about all that has happened lately, so I don't have much to say.

You are right you do have a great husband. There are a few of them out there.

As far as Harry Potter, I would go see in the theatres once. I love Harry Potter! I just wasn't to thrilled with the movie. I just finished reading the book and kept comparing the movie to the book. How can you turn a 650 page book with tons of details into a 2 and half hour movie?

That's why I don't read the books...I've heard most people who've read the books, just aren't that thrilled with the movies. ;)
