night out on the town for President's Day

ok not really but we managed an out to dinner with the family-at least the ones available & in town plus a couple of friends as BIL heads back to KC today. MIL picked Bonefish Grill and I was less than enthused by the choice as the only thing I have heard about the restaurant was "it's expensive"
I must say I was pleasantly surprised the food was great, service great, the pomegranate martini rocked and it wasn't so very expensive especially when MIL picks up the check big thanks to her! We all had an enjoyable time C of course ate non-stop as soon as food started coming with some help from MIL who sat next to him-we joked ha ha when he wakes up with a tummy ache we were going to call her. Not so funny at 3.04 a.m. when I was woken up by a little boy with a tummy ache. He was stil not feeling well this morning so he is home from school today. I do not like keeping him out of school but he has never played the fake sick card as of yet and I figured I would have gotten a phone call from the school nurse at some point if I sent him in. Luckily D is off today so he can take BIL to the airport this afternoon at which point C will go to MIL so the scramble for childcare was not such a big deal huge thanks to MIL on that front as well!
almost forgot the best part after I got C settled and back in bed D started going on about buying castor oil because when they were kids and went out to a party, picnic etc they would each get a tablespoon of castor oil if that doesn't seem cruel & unusual I don't know what does! blecch
