Crazy Days!

As you can tell from my lack of posting recently, we have been very busy! Last week seems like a blur so I will start with Friday. Friday two friends from work and I played hookie and went to Mistletoe Marketplace. It was my first time to go and I have mixed feelings about the whole experience. Negative - I do not like to shop while people are leaning over my shoulder huffing and puffing or having to push my way into a booth to look at way over priced things that I like but don't need. Positive - It was great to spend a day with friends laughing, being silly, and talking about girl stuff without wiping noses, butts, or bloody knees! I also came home so much in the Christmas spirit that I am ready to put up my tree!

Saturday, Peyton played his last soccer game of the season. I'm not sure soccer is his thing. (Which is fine with us... we don't get it anyway. Sorry soccer lovers!) I think he is going to try baseball in the spring. Aunt Melanie came in to town Saturday morning so she took Morgan to Nana's with her while Gene and Trevor went to get hay for our church fall festival and I took Peyton to his friend, Bo Broome's birthday party. He had a great time playing with all of his classmates! Later I went to praise team practice while Gene and the kids went to Mom's to wait for me and watch Kung Fu Panda. While at Mom's, Mom, Melanie, and I decided we would highlight each others hair. Mom's looks great! Melanie and I however were at Wal-Mart at 11pm buying dye! I had become a blond! Not a good look for me. Thankfully my hair is back to its original color! I won't be doing that again!

Sunday was our fall festival at church. We had the best time! There were games, free food, jumping things, slides, a jousting ring, bingo, a pie eating contest, a sack race (which I competed in but didn't win), and much more! We also came home with eight goldfish the kids had won! My sister took pictures of the whole weekend that I'll post as soon as she sends them to me!

Yesterday, Morgan spent the whole day hanging out with Aunt Melanie while the rest of us were at work and school. They both had a great time doing girl stuff! The boys, however, were jealous until she checked them out early! Thanks Aunt Melanie! Hope everyone has a great week! I'll post pictures soon!

Sounds like a busy but fun week! Glad you got your hair back to the right color. Seems like everyone has done that kind of thing at least once in their life.

I agree with you about Mistletoe. But it is fun when you've got your friends!
