Even though all of you faithful readers out there REFUSE to comment on my blog, I do get the off-blog rants of "Why haven't you posted???" Well here is my latest excuse:
I haven't written for a bit because I have had my head buried deep in diabetes educator books, index cards and cups and cups of coffee. I will be so relieved when this test is over. 11 days and counting. Today I will use my study break to update you on the O.G. goings-on. Perhaps one or two of you will thank me by posting a sweet note.
Todd went golfing in Las Vegas this weekend. Those of you who know me at all know that my husband is Superdad and his absence sends me into a panic. I am pretty much terrified to take care of my kids without his help. As soon as he told me he was taking this last minute trip I started scheduling activities. Friday evening included making Halloween cookies and paper-mache pumpkins with Mary and Aspen. This would be a good time to mention that is snowed pretty much all day long on Friday. Fortunately coach Alicia is kind enough to cancel soccer practice when there is a blizzard out. The people who run Ky's soccer league were not as kind. In spite of the 31 degree freeze we showed up to our previously scheduled soccer game at 9am. As soon as we left soccer,I had us scheduled to meet Gina, Evan and Skylar at Michael's to decorate pumpkins. When that was over it was lunch and a play date for all of us at our house. That night the boys and I climbed in my bed and watched Finding Nemo in the dark. We woke up bright and early so that Val, Madison and McKenna could come over in their pjs for a Sunday morning breakfast playdate. As they were leaving Todd drove up. Fifteen minutes later I was out the door to study for the rest of the day.
I don't mess around people. It is like a bootcamp of fun around here! I have also included some pictures from a trip to the pumpkin patch and a hike we took recently. Enjoy our craziness!
In Health,
Yo
