Words on Wednesday

OK, so I missed Ten on Tuesday and it is still awhile until Friday so here are some thoughts from me today.

• Has it been 6 months since my last dental check up? Yes, so back to the nice Dr. B I went and he is going to rescue another one of my food traps. Good news, I have been flossing more and my gums are looking good!! Hope that was not too much info.
• I feel like I have been so out of touch with friends and I am really struggling with that right now. I guess that I am still trying to figure out how to juggle everything since I am working now. My days off still are so full of things to get done that the time just seems to go so fast. So to all of my friends out there who I have not been in touch with lately I love you and am thinking about you.
• I started Christmas shopping today and I pray that I can stay on budget and keep the true meaning of Christmas as the focus!
• It is time for new jeans and I am dreading all the trying on that it takes to find a good pair.
• Loving the change in weather here and I hope it stays around awhile. It feels like fall, how about that?!?!
• I am glad that the election is now over and all the signs can come down. I got to take the YES for Prop 8 sticker off my car and the sign out of our yard .... and I think it passed? I think that they still may be counting those votes...anyone know ?

Happy Wednesday to you all!

Happy Harvest

Happy Halloween one and all

ooey, gooey..pumpkin slim



3 pumpkins sitting in a row...off to the Harvest Festival we go

We went for a slide

We played games for candy

Next year we will soar to great heights on the tethered hot air balloon ride

Friday Five

For me the Friday five is much easier than the 10 on Tuesday so here we go...

1. I am enjoying my second cup of coffee as I write this, the house is quiet except for the sound of the washing machine and my fingers on the keyboard.
2. My struggles with Emilee in the morning has reached an all time high and I am going crazy. It is so hard to deal with so early in the morning. She is for sure a strong willed spirited child and I only pray for some relief when the teenage years come.
3. Ashley on the other hand is so accommodating and easy going. Don't get me wrong she has her moments of stubbornness but she is so much easier to handle.
4. One thing sad about me working is that I miss out on some of the things at school. Yesterday was the Jog-a-thon and I was not able to be there to run and watch my girls run/walk the track. A friend took photos for me and I am so thankful for that. Today is family lunch so I will be there for that one.
5. This weekend I am going to see HSM3. A few moms from school are going to see the third High School Musical movie, we are so excited! If it passes the "clean test" I will take the girls back to see it. Yes, I am a HSM fan can you tell?!?!

Bate's Nut Farm

Ashley had her first field trip in a school bus last week. My only wish as a chaperon was that we would have had some fall weather that day. It was so HOT!!

She had a blast finding her pumpkin and searching for all the stamps in the corn maze with her friends.

Nana's Visit

Miramar Air Show



Wow are the blue angels loud when they fly right over your head
We had to take Nana to our favorite beach



We love you, Nana!!
See you in December

Too Tired

I am still here and promise to post the fun we had with mom soon, but this now working mommy and wife is so tired. Who would have thought that just working 2 days would be so exhausting??
