So its been pretty uneventful last few weeks.

I got Grant's 3 year pics taken FINALLY!! I will have in a few weeks.

Hunter started winter soccer training Wed/Thursday night so that's another thing to go to but by time its done soccer will be close so it will help him that much more.

I'm planning the GS Father Daughter Dance I do every year. Its on V-day this year, which sucks but its always the 2nd Sat of the month so can't change that. I'm busy trying to get businesses to give us gift cards and raffle prizes. This years theme is Sweetheart Dance so should be alot of fun.

Well its been a busy few weeks.......

On Dec 9th I passed my LEED exam.....very exciting and glad to have behind me!!!

I'm off for the rest of the year as of Wed so I'm a very happy camper. So much to do.

Kalynn got a few of us girls hooked on the Twilight series so we have been feverishly reading... I have never read so many pages in my life in such a short time. I'm on book 4 (book 1 took 2 days, Book 2 took 3 days and book 3 took a week)..Book 4 is taking me longer due to holidays and just plain being tired plus its over 800 pages. LOVES ME SOME EDWARD!!!!!! Great series I highly recommend it.

Let's see Christmas went very well. Grant woke up puking around 3am but we got passed that and he didn't the rest of the day. No fever just an upset tummy. Thank god!!! Everyone was up around 8am so we did our thing here and then my parents came over. We got a new camera so I'm very happy. Our digital camera was 6 years old and it was done, I barely got pics out of it. Everyone got alot of really nice stuff and the boys were very happy. We went to Matt's side of the family (mom's) for lunch at noon and then to my parents at 6pm for dinner. I didn't over do it so I'm still doing well with my weight loss. 33.5lbs so far....35lbs by end of year is my goal...

Well until my New Year's eve report...have a Happy New Year!!

Life.....

Well let's see....

we had the boys b-day party 2 weeks ago. It was a blast. We had it at our house this year, thinking we'd keep it small....NOT A CHANCE...too many friends/kids. Anyway Missy and I did a joint b-day party since Kaiden's b-day is only a few days away from mine. We did cake, ice cream, pizza, pinata, presents and then saw Madagascar II, freaking hiliarous. All the kids did wonderful and we all had a great time.

I'm still studying for my exam....Dec 9th is the big day. I'm down to studying the crap that isn't sticking....and taking lots of practice tests.

Work is busy so that's good considering economic times...pray that stays that way.

Last weekend we just hung around the house and chilled.

Thanksgiving was 2 times this year in one day. Once at Matt's family and once with mine. Usually we go to Chicago but this year we wanted to stay home which was great.

Got up at 3:30am on Friday to hit Kohls along with everyone else, I got some great deals but it was killer.

Today I met Darcy, Christi and Jenny for breakfast as Darcy was in town so great to see her as its been months and months.

Went to Amber's for an after Thanksgiving get together, fun....then we did family time at home watching Wall E and chillin....

11/13

Well I've been a busy girl as you can see by no blogging for a while....

Let's see work has been insane and will only get more before its over. We are working on a 3 schools in Avon doing renovations and all due by end of year more or less...freak out!!! I am getting a designer for 3 days a week so thank god I will actually get to take time off at Christmas.
We went to the pumpkin patch the weekend before Halloween. All was good.





I took Halloween off and we went to the Zoo. It was great, 70 degrees and probably 50 people in the entire zoo.


Halloween was fun. Boys were Venom and Spiderman.



Lets see saw Amber's band Greta Speaks last weekend with Cheryl. Great as usual. So funny to be around a bunch of young people at the bars....lots of people watching that night.

Been studying for my LEED exam, Dec 9th is the date!!! Getting alittle freaked out but I'm getting ready. Bought practice tests online so doing that like the real thing.

Boys birthday party with Kaiden is this Saturday. Movie themed, pizza, cake and seeing Madagascar 2 afterwards.
We gave Hunter is Wii last night since it was his birthday. He was estactic!!! Went over very well.

10/12

So its been a busy few weeks.

Last weekend I went to Chicago for the New Kids ocncert....it was a blast!!!! It was like they never left.





Let's see work is going well. Business is finally starting to pick up so its time to hire a designer. I've been interviewing for about 2 months now. I think I found the right designer so 2nd interview is this week..... I went to an interview with Avon the other night so that was cool....love those....fun to brag about what your company can do. I don't ever talk just be the designer.

Hunter and Grant are doing well. Hunter is doing awesome at school and Grant is now officially fully potty trained.

Well my new mission is to find a Wii for the boys. Today I got the Wii Fit board and Mario Cart which apparently are harder than the game to find, just walked into Blockbuster. So now I'm on the mission to find me the gaming system..wish me luck. So stupid that you have to hunt down a gaming system.
