I forgot to grab my set of keys when I left the house this morning - and, thereby, got locked out. Usually I have them when I leave because I lock the door behind me...and if I don't have them it's because I forgot to lock the door. But since
zannahope has been living with us for the past few weeks, I don't lock the door when I leave in the morning because she's still home. I think it's just weird when people leave and lock other people into a place. Kyle does it every morning, but just because we're all still sleeping when he leaves in the morning. Lately, I've been just keeping the keys in my purse, but it's so cluttered right now that I found it easier to just hang them up instead of put them in my purse when I got home last night. Hate having to fish around in the bottom for them. It feels like I'm digging into a Mary Poppins bag, even though it really is a smaller purse.
So I called up
studiodoctor to make sure he was home before I left work - since I've come in to work early every day this week and am not allowed to go over 40 hours and planned on leaving work early.
Me: Are you home?
KY: No" (hear road noise in the background)
Me: Are you even off work yet?
KY: Yeah...
Me: ...and you picked Blake up from daycare?
KY: Yup.
Me: Well where are you then?
KY: Blake and I are just heading down to the studio to pick up gear for tonight.....
Me: I forgot my keys at home this morning.
KY: Yeah, I saw that both sets of Xterra keys were there and thought you may have. ...unless you got the key from Zanna...
Me: And you locked the door anyways?
KY: Uh...yeah. I figured we'd be back before 5pm.
Me: Remember I told you that I'm getting off work today? Just like I did yesterday?
KY: I'm such an ass.
Me: JERK!
So I'm still at work. Not because I'm getting paid to be here or because I'm working...but because I left my keys at home and Kyle locked me out. Jerk. I'd call him an SOB if I could say it to him with a straight face.
Kyle's parents brought Kayla, Carter & Uncle Steve out to see us on a roadtrip for the 4th of July. They stopped to see Mt. Rushmore and the Black Hills, and then took a day to go down to C-Springs to see Pike's Peak and the Royal Gorge.
Blake with Great-Uncle Steve - "the tallest uncle in the world!" (probably not actually the tallest, but his handprints are at the very top of Blake's wall).
On the 4th of July everyone went down to the
studio so that Kayla and Carter could do a recording for a belated Happy Birthday slideshow for Craig & Nicki. (Yeah, got some work to do there - editing and getting pictures from MomR.) If I remember correctly there were 3 aircraft fuselages on the tracks by the studio.
That night Grandpa Karl & Uncle Steve stayed home with Blake so we could go to see fireworks with Grandma Linda, Kayla & Carter. Kayla put her festive dress on!
