We had our annual church hayride last night. I think the girls really enjoyed themselves... there were hot dogs and marshmellows involved and the night was complete after goodie bags full of candy... thank goodness it warmed up a little yesterday !
Hannah's school play was Tuesday night and she did really well, I was proud that she behaved herself up on stage considering the kids around her were goofin off.... She was very excited about the whole thing and I am so glad I was able to go watch her participate. The kids are loving having their dad around to go to things like this since he isnt working anymore. For as long as they can remember he has worked 2nd shift so he hasnt ever been able to participate in school functions. These are the times I will miss the most years down the road when they are all grown up and out on their own
The kids are excited about trick or treating tommorrow night. Hannah is going as some kind of scary something (Im not sure what you would call it) and Skylar is going as Hannah Montana... Danielle is going as a cranky hormonal preteen.... oh wait... nevermind LOL! I have to work but I will be home in plenty of time to take them out... just figure I will be worn out Saturday at work I am sure!
I am loving being full time and the new hours at work. Any extra overtime I get is going to be welcome with christmas coming up! I dont have much time left over for anything else but we will get through this, and I think once I get more adjusted to the earlier hours it will only get easier! I do miss my 2nd shift friends though! They are all so funny and jus plain ol awesome... it's good to have a job that you don't just dread going into every day. I'm not saying its perfect but I think it is definatly a much needed change from where life had been headed!
The kids are all finally recovered from their round of the flu.... when I think back to this time last year we are in such a better place! Last October Danielle had her brain stem surgery and was at home recovering for that and tension was building for the big spine surgery... it is so good to have all of that behind us. I didn't realize at the time how stressfull all of that would turn out to be... thank God it's over. and she is doing SO much better!
Well... I have the day off and a couch that has been missing me that I must go show my affection for so I hope you all have a great day!
Happy Halloweenie!
