I didn't realize that it had been a month since my last posting until I was reading Rachel's blog and noticed it on the side.
I was put into the nursery about a month ago. WOW! I am not sure what to say about it. The second week in started my "month" of lessons. I am more in to activities than lessons, so we will see how it goes. Today's activities left 5 minutes for singing and lesson...perfect! Next week I think we will make Turkeys out of sugar cookies! Brave, I know.
The weather Friday was PERFECT! I love overcast, dark, snowy days! When the girls got home they made a snow man with the kit that I found at Tai Pan. It had the scarf, hat, carrot nose, pipe, nose, eyes, buttons, everything. So cute. I will post a pic after I can get them downloaded.
This is my first weekend out of school. Yes, I said it, I am done with school. I didn't realize at the time how much I was giving up to do school. This weekend was really productive. I cleaned things that had been patiently waiting for my attention. Stayed up late cleaning.
Friday night Katie called me at about 7:40 PM and asked me if I wanted to go to Richfield Christmas shopping. In all of my cleaning glory, I finished the stair well, folded the last batch of laundry, and got ready. By 8 we were on our way and we got home at about 12:30. So much fun!
The girls are excited for Christmas! I have some fun things planned. I want to have all of my decorations out before Dec 1 and most of the shopping done. That way we can focus on spending our time doing the things that make the holidays so much fun.
Don't forget Thanksgiving-We are going to Nephi. I am excited. I guess it's because of all of the childhood memories that have from there. We used to spend every other Thanksgiving in Nephi at my grandmas house. It will be interesting to see how we all fit in the house.
We are also dong a few things around the house. I guess it never ends. Josh replaced the door on the side of the garage yesterday. We are painting and hanging closet doors for Ashley's room, hopefully this week. Mace is coming Saturday to finish the tile around the shower in the bathroom. I have new cupboards to hang in the laundry room and above the toilet in the master bath. I also need to lengthen blinds...and the list goes on. Some of this stuff might have to wait until after Christmas. We need a few things to help Will get through the short winter nights.
It guess that is it, nothing too exciting...
