National Waffle Day 2013

August 24th is National Waffle Day.  This is the first year we've actually been able to celebrate this holiday since Jeremy didn't get a waffle maker until Christmas last year. 
Before whenever we would see the holiday on the calendar but remark that we couldn't make and eat waffles that day, Jeremy would comment about how we could be wishy washy and not make up our minds about something in order to celebrate (look up other definitions of waffle if you don't know what I'm talking about).  We never got around to it, though.
This year we have a waffle maker so for dinner on National Waffle Day we had...
WAFFLES!

The kids were pleased and got right down to concentrating on eating so there wasn't much conversation until it being National Waffle Day reminded them about other holidays and they remembered that there is Make Up Your Own Holiday Day (March 26th).  They started suggesting a whole bunch of holidays.  I let them know when they came across ones that were actual holidays, such as National Chocolate Day (September 13th).  They were excited to hear that one was coming up.
It feels good to be celebrating again as we kind of got out of it this Summer.
