I picked up the kids on the train today, which means I took the train to the suburbs, met the kids at the station and then rode it back to the city. Craig and I think they are old enough to ride the train by themselves, but their mom is a little nervous about that so we came up with a compromise. Instead of letting them take the train, she offered to drive them to a station closer to the city, which saved me an hour and a half (travel time 1.5 hours instead of three). Their mom Kim put in the train station into mapquest and she ended up at one station past the one we were supposed to meet at, but luckily she was able to get them to the next station with 30 seconds to spare. Craig picked us up and we went to Lux Bar for dinner. We went so early that we were able to get in right away which was nice because normally it takes at least an hour if you do not have reservations. After dinner we went home and watched movies. Craig and Julia watched The Eye thinking it was scary, but were disappointed when it was not. Ethan played his new electric guitar - an early birthday present. I blogged and watched Dear John. I thought it was cute, but was disappointed. His other movie, The Last Song was amazing so I expected a lot with Dear John. Oh well. Tomorrow Ethan has a baseball game so I will post afterwards.

Did you do all that tonight? Sounds like fun. I just watched Dear John last week. I cried but more because of his Dad, not because of the love story. The book was way better, as usual. I haven't seen The Last Song yet, but I am excited about it. I liked that book even better anyway! Have a good weekend, can't wait to see more updates!!
Can't wait to see the house - and you, Craig and the kids! Everything looks great, and that's so great that Julia and Ethan did so well in school this year! Can't wait to see everyone!
