It is Christmas Concert night! The kids are SOOOOOOO excited, but I'm not feeling it. Mostly because I know it is going to be a zoo over there, and also there is the fact that I will be there fighting for seats from 5:20 to probably 8:30 or 9:00. First there is the kindergarten concert, which starts at 5:45. We have to have them there at 5:20 ( Read more... )

I really can't believe my "baby" is going to be four tomorrow. Time has flown by so fast, but I guess a lot has happened since she was born. She is such a little fire cracker and she makes our house so full of craziness and fun ( Read more... )

I can't believe how busy the next little while before Christmas is getting! I am actually glad we cancelled our trip to Florida for this year, because I don't know how we'd get everything done if we were still going. At first I was a little sad that we weren't going to be going after all, but at least we've booked for next year and it will be ( Read more... )

Today I had my fitness assessment at the EnergyXchange. It was actually a good time for it since I just had my birthday and I'm now starting my 35th year. I haven't had anything like this done for quite awhile, so I was a bit apprehensive to see where I would stand physically now ( Read more... )

Whew, made it through Halloween 2011! It all started with the party I went to on Friday night. It was lots of fun to hang out with friends and I was super scary as a zombie cheerleader. I didn't get home till 3:00am, which was a mistake in hindsight as I am still tired from that. Chris was also not thrilled with me for that. He, of course, was ( Read more... )

So it is official, I cannot drink like I used to. Not that that is a bad thing....I just have to remind myself of that. Over the last few weeks there have been several occasions that I've overdone it in the wine department and the next day is just bad, bad, bad!! Luckily today isn't one of the worst hangovers I've had, in fact it isn't that bad ( Read more... )

Well, our Thanksgiving weekend hasn't turned out exactly as planned. Unfortunately, on Friday morning Finley woke up with a fever. And of course Friday is my volunteer day at the school, which I was looking forward to. Oh well, there's always next Friday! Anyway, we stayed home and watched a lot of TV and in the afternoon she seemed to be ( Read more... )

 Oops, I think I got too much sun today!  I even put sunscreen on myself a few times, but we spent most of the day outside.  Between hanging out at the school playground, having a picnic lunch at school, playing in the backyard, and taking the kids to the splash pad after school I got a ton of sun.  Thank goodness I DID put on sunscreen--I'd be ( Read more... )
