Dreary Friday

It has been raining nonstop since yesterday. I am beginning to wonder if it will ever stop raining.

This morning was very hectic. Our event started at 8am and sure enough by 7:45 we had people coming into the cafeteria to pick up their donut and drink. We had about 540 people rsvp to the event. We ordered 600 donuts, had 360 juice boxes, one very large container of coffee with two smaller decaf boxes. Every single donut was gone by 8:27 and almost everything else was gone as well! We actually had a few late stragglers come in, some of the kids were very upset.

I made sure my husband fed the kids a bowl of cereal before they came. One donut is not enough for my boys in the morning. This is usually their biggest meal. The donut was like dessert for breakfast. Well, unfortunately others did not feel that was the case. Some people came back for 2 or 3 donuts(we had no way of telling unless the evidence was on their face). Next year when someone else takes over this committee they may want to spell it out a little more for the parents. I am glad it is over and my last event of the year!

Today is a very exciting day. The tile guys are finally done. Our cabinets were delivered. And the contractor will be here tomorrow with the plumber and electrician. Our counter tops and shower enclosure should be installed next week. We actually need to find some time this weekend to go pick out our granite stone.
