No school again!

I think I would be better off doing home school!
It seems they are home more than even I was.

Anyway it's a nice cold sunny day here in Chanhassen.
The old "calm before the storm" We could get a foot of snow
tomorrow and I hope we do! I love the big snow storms,
I hate the cold but a bunch of snow is fun. If it has to be cold
at least we should have some snow on the ground.

Benji wants to go snowboarding so bad. And the girls want
to take lessons. I am not sure I want to take them to lessons
so I'll have to look into Saturdays for Pete to take them.
Ya, that sounds good and I'll stay home all by myself
and sit by the fire with a hot chocolate and read a book!
I think thats the ticket! Enjoy your day. TGIF!

Peace.

Monday again...

The weekends go way to fast! I just love the weekends!
I know I have said that before I just like no alarm clocks
and no home work. We kept busy with some last minute
yard stuff, putting up our Boy Scout wreath and swags,
tossing moldy pumpkins. The weather was yucky so we
did not put up any lights. I hope it does not get worse
next weekend or I'll never get Pete to hang them.

I also did some sewing on a borrowed machine. I made some
lounge pants for the kids out of fleece. It was fun and they think it's
cool that I made them. I am not a sewer AT ALL so this was a big
deal for me to do. I even asked Pete to get me a sewing machine for
Christmas. I think it will be fun to have one here and do
little projects with the kids. Even Benji was getting in to it.

Well, I gotta go get Amanda from her Brownie meeting now.
Have a great week and a Happy Thanksgiving if I don't blog
again by then. (Which I most likely will not since I will be hosting
25 or so people for Turkey day.)

What are you thankful for?
Peace!

TGIF

It has been a while I guess.
I am back on my own time zone and on my own computer!
It is VERY nice to be home. I came home to clean kids and
a clean house. Can't ask for more than that! Thanks again Susan!!!

Halloween was fun.
Here is Amanda and Emily




And here they are with some friends.



Amanda got her ears pierced, its so cute!
She is so happy and proud of her new earring's.
I'll have to take a picture and post it this week end.

Some of my neighborhood friends and I are going out
for a girls night out at Floyd's in Victoria. It should be
a good time. I am looking forward to it. And, now that
there is no smoking in Minnesota it will be smoke free inside.
I am so happy to not be smoking!

I was at the gym today and met with a new trainer (mine quit)
and we did a body age test on me and it said I was only 33!!!!
6 months ago I did the test and was 34 so at least I am
going in the right direction with something in my life.

Gotta go do more laundry and picking up around here
before the week end officially starts.

Love to all.
Peace.
