Our weekend...so far!

Happy Halloween!

We spent our morning at church getting our pictures taken for the directory and hopefully our Christmas cards if it works out. Then we went to the Dimond Walmart (Ugh!!!) to get supplies for Girl Scouts, we ended up getting our groceries for the week and spending way too much $$$.

The kids just finished chores and homework so they can go trick-or-treating. Yummy treats for mom and dad tonight too. Not sure what's for dinner, maybe just candy! teehee ;-P


Tomorrow is mom's birthday so Steve is making a big pot of his wonderful spaghetti and homemade bread. Chuck, Doreen, Kendra, Jeremiah, and mom & dad will be here for a birthday brunch.


Hope everyone has a
Great weekend!
Happy trails, Heather

Our week...with pictures!

What a week! It started out with snakes and moved on to airplanes. After I presented at Aviation on Wednesday, I snuck over to the Honor Roll assembly. I had told the kids I wouldn't be there, but it worked out, yehoo! We are sooo proud of our kids. They both made honor roll and Hunter had PERFECT attendance, of course, he's my kid!
The week ended today with portfolio share in Marina's classroom. What a beautiful day it turned out to be, over 50 degrees! We sat outside and checked out Marina's portfolio at the picnic tables. Steve and I are alone this weekend ;-). We're still winterizing...we missed out on covered storage for the motor home so Steve is improvising in the driveway! Work work work, play play play...it should be a great weekend no matter what. We are home alone too...what a life.
Hope everyone has a great sunny weekend! Love, Heather

Have not blogged lately...

The last week of running club the kids played red light, green light! The 6th graders ran it and that was obvious from the torturous red light, red light they kept bullhorning.
Last Tuesday we were blessed to get a quick visit with Melanie on her way back from Mexico. We had a nice moose burger dinner then we picked up a frosty before she went back to the Sheraton to hang with hubby who had his wisdom teeth removed and was not up to a visit.

There was a fall festival at church this weekend. The kids had a blast, painting pumpkins, frosting cookies, face painting, etc. Steve, mom, dad, and I all played BINGO! Steve & I both got BINGO's, hence the cup and cookbook we got for prizes.
Last but not least, I attended the principal's conference at the Sheraton yesterday and hung out with a big girlie snake! The places my work takes me are so much fun...there was an alligator, turtle, and frog too! Today I am off to Service then tomorrow Aviation, yehoo! Things are pretty mellow here this week, lots of homework, Girl Scouts, Cub Scouts, projects galore. That's mellow for us! Hope y'all have a great week. ;-)

Atlanta was AWESOME ;-)

I had a great trip to Atlanta!

I really missed Steve & the kids,

but I really missed my family.
